Student: I need homework. Lots of homework.

Joke 2:

What english teachers dream about:
"I see dead poets... and they don't know they're dead."

Neither of them are that great. With enough setup, Joke 2 would definitely be funnier. As it is... probably the first one.

Of course, we could go into attempting to establish a quantitative criterion whereby we can judge how funny something is. That might be counter-productive, though.

Bah... screw productivity. How can one measure humor?

I prefer this teacher/professor joke....


Two friends were out partying late the night before a final, and they rolled in like 4am and went to sleep. Their final was at 9am the next morning, and being that they were tired and hungover, they called the Professor and told him that they got a flat tire and didn't get home until late, thus not having time to study. The professor said alright, be prepared for it in 2 days. They were so overwhelmed that they hit the books determined to ace it. When they got to the professor for the final, he took them to separate rooms. At first, they thought this kind of odd, but nevertheless they were ready for the test. They sat down and took the test:


BIOLOGY FINAL

(5 points) 1. Define Photosynthesis.......


(95 points) 2. Which tire was flat?

it would be funnier and much less humiliating to just stand there and not say anything rather than embarrass yourself by telling EITHER of those jokes..

Another student/professor story:

There were over 250 students in Biology 201. On exam day, they filed one by one into the enormous auditorium. Exams were handed out and the professor sat down at her desk to correct papers after the students began.

Most of the 250 had already finished and left when a pupil approached the desk. Just as he was about to plop his blue book on top of the pile, the professor said, "I saw you cheating. You fail the test."

She was not lying, she had seen him look over a couple of shoulders for answers. But our young student could not afford to flunk this test so he decided to ask the professor one question.

"Do you know who I am?"
When she replied negatively, he slipped his blue book into the gigantic pile and quietly left the room.

Guess a sufficient number of the people have spoken. I can only take credit for the first "joke", it was an AIM away message that I left up today. The second is a spin-off that a certain poster in this thread who shall remain nameless came up with. I said mine made more sense and was funnier than his, he disagreed. Since neither of us were really qualified to make a judgment on it I posted about it. In retrospect, I think I should've left the third option out. :D





















Are you still here? It's over! Go home! Go!

I'd always thought that was a true story. Either way this joke is the most funny out of them all. :)
