Teacher
Hopkins, you horrible, little boy, I suppose you’d better explains yourself.
TimYes sir, sorry sir, well I lent Jenkins my pencil case last week, it was one of those fancy ones, with a protractor, and those metal propelling pencils, and I have double maths this afternoon, and he’d left it at home, and were doing quadrilateral triangles and…
Teacher
And that’s why you shot him?
Tim
No sir.
Teacher
Well thank heaven for that, I’d hate to have to tell the Jenkins you popped a cap in their son’s bottom because he lost your pencil case, so what was the real reason?
Tim
He took my Umbungo.
Teacher
Your Umbungo?
Tim
It’s the third time, I mean I couldn’t just let it go.
Teacher
Right so you shot Jenkins, for losing your pencil case and pinching an amusingly named fruit drink from yourself? Why did you shoot Cooper?
Tim
We were playing grand ma’s foot steps, and he said he hadn’t moved when he clearly had.
Teacherand Bland?
Tim
He wrote Tim Hopkins is a gaymo on his desk.
Teacher
Ah ha gotcha, you’re for it my lad, you’re going to be expelled
Tim
What for shooting Bland?
Teacher
No next to Bland’s cooling corpse, we found cigarette butts, and who ever shot him was smoking on school grounds, an expellable offence.
TimIt’s a fair cop.
Another golden oldie
