CTTS (age 10): there's no X in Y
I haven't posted in some time, but Morris just told me this morning
about a verbal exchange he had at school yesterday and I was paralyzed with laughter for a good minute -- and who can I tell? So, apparently he wasn't trying hard enough during PE yesterday (I think they were playing basketball), so a girl on his team said to him: "You know, there's no 'L' in 'TEAM'." ["L" for loser, of course; I had to think about this, but Morris tells me it's quite a common abbreviation nowadays] This really enraged Morris, who replied: "Well, apparently, there's a 'WE' in 'STUPID'." He actually was a bit upset about this at the time, but he and the girl who initially taunted him apologized to each other later. (On their own initiative! One of the things I like about his school.)
