Some Things Never Die - Part 2

Following the prior Pound of Bricks or Feathers post, I had to write about this one.

Just before the 2-week break, which was quite nice, I overheard one of my students asking a question to his friend:

Student 1: "Hey D, what are your eating under there?"

Student 2 replies: "Under where?"

Student 1, laughing: "Oh gross! Your eating your undies?!?!?"

Some things never die, nor should they.

Bad Language?

Three of my kids returned from Holiday break with their favorite phrase being:

"YippeeKayehhh, Mamma-cita!!!"

Now, I thought they were repeating the famed Die Hard quote. I didn't bust them for swearing, but I did strongly recommend that stop using the phrase as it may get them in trouble later on.

Short or Long Hair?

I start of every morning with a language review, where my students have to correct sentences or answer questions. This week one of the questions was this

Fact or Opinion: Boys look better with short hair than with long hair.

One girl raised her hand and said, "That is definitely an opinion."

Another girl quickly thrust her hand in the air. "But, it's also definitely a fact!", voicing her strong preference.

I had to smile and stated, "Well, it is a definite fact in your opinion."
