Me: Wow, you just called your mom a witch?? Student: Well, I was going to call her a wizard, but then I went with the female version of that. So I called her a witch. She's from Harlem. Me (confused, knowing she isn't): ...? Student: Ok, she's not, but you know, Harlem? Like the Harlem Witch Trials? Me: . . .you mean the *Salem* Witch Trials... *student throws hat and walks away laughing at himself* |
