The week.

This may become a regular fixture - the assorted school funnies of the week which didn't warrant their own post.

To begin with: FRANKENLORD (expletive) a way to blaspheme obscenely without actually using obscenities.
"You brought Frankenstein today? Thank the Frankenlord!"
N.B. pronounced in a manner akin to 'fuckin'.

FRANKENMOTHERFUCKER (n) As Victor is the 'mother' of the monster (i.e. he 'bore' it) thus, to be a frankenmotherfucker, he would have to be wanking. Thus, a frankenmotherfucker is one who supplicates themselves after creating a monster otu of spare parts.

In Latin on thursday, we had some entertaining segways. One of them involved us speculating as to what animal Mr Morrison (our teacher) would be. Sarah suggested a meerkat. I suggested a giant squid. As it turns out, that's his favourite animal. Who'd have thunk.

There was then a minor discussion regardign the pronunciation of the word command which resulted in teh following conversational gems:

Mr Morrison: You say command, I say potato.

Me: You say potato, I say giant squid.

Monica: You say potato, I say Lady Gaga.

Later in the lesson, as we discussed Cicero's wording, Mr Morrison said "How much authority does this speech have?"

Half the class however thought he had said "How much authority does this bitch have?" something which mildly confused us - because that's not the kind of thing he usually says - at which point we dissolved into giggles.

Today, during Latin extension, we were translating a Catullus poem addressed to Furius and Aurelius - the selfsame men Catullus 16 was addressed to. Namely the guys he said he would sodomise violently (and that was the nice part of the poem).

This led me say "Catullus didn't like many people", to which Mr Morrison responded "Catullus liked his brother."

Utter silence.

And then as we were leaving, he said "My comment for the weekend is be nice to each other." at which point he left the room. The moment he was outside the door he added "And don't get drunk or pregnant."

Well. That was unexpected. All I can say is: I won't.
