An injustice
One day a little girl comes home from school, and says to her mother, “Mommy, today in school I was punished for something that I didn’t do.”
The mother exclaims, “But that’s terrible! I’m going to have a talk with your teacher about this! By the way, what was it that you didn’t do?”
The little girl replies, “My homework.”
Guess the species
A young college student stayed up all night studying for his zoology test the next day. As he enters the classroom, he sees ten stands with ten birds but only the birds’ legs are showing.
He sits right in the front row because he wants to do the best job possible.
The professor announces that the test will be to look at each set of bird legs and give the common name, habitat, genus, species, and identifying characteristic.
The student looks at each set of bird legs. They all look the same to him. He begins to get upset. He stayed up all night studying, and now he has to identify birds by their legs. The more he thought about it, the madder he got. Finally, he couldn’t stand it anymore.
He goes to the professor’s desk and says “What a stupid test! How can anyone tell the difference between birds by looking at their legs?”
With that the student throws his test on the professor’s desk and walks out the door.
The professor is surprised. The class is so big that he doesn’t know every student’s name, so as the student reaches the door, the professor calls outsays “One moment, son, what’s your name?”
The enraged student pulls up his pant legs and said “You guess!”
