High School Humour

One popular joke among the school scallywags here is doing a lazily excecuted salute while brightly exclaiming "sex!" It seems that, being an English speaker, they though I would find it especially funny, but the most it has gotten out of me was an "Ee-wah?" the first time they did it. Yesterday I walked past a group of such scallywags and as they let fly with their witticism I realised I could make it a bit more interesting my teaching them some obscure Finnish power words to bellow out. Then I thought I could make it funny by teaching them "power words" such as "flower" in Finnish; which they could then shout all they like while I chuckle quietly to myself. I'll let you know when I hear someone shouting "flower!" at me in Finnish.

There's another, genuinly clever and actually quite funny antic worth mentioning. It would seem that having fun at the teachers' expense by disrespecting them would not be wise, so instead they have fun by upping the ante on politeness. It's great fun to see a teacher pass a group of these fellows, all of them doing several perfectly excecuted bows while shouting "Konnichiwa!" in the sharpest military tone they can muster. Then follow this with a similar barrage of greetings to their friend who has just come from the toilet. I wouldn't know but it seems to teachers find it quite amusing too - everybody wins!

Algorithm March! with Ninjas!

For your daily dose of WTFIWWTC! And for those too stupid to figure that out what that stands for: What the f*ck is wrong with that country?"


I think its time for some practice...
