    I had a teacher in high school, who also coached the hockey team, who liked to make fun of you when you bought into something stupid by saying “did you know they took the word gullible out of the dictionary?”.

    So when he said it, I grabbed the dictionary and looked it up and said “no Mr Pizzo it’s right here!”.

    He looked wonderingly at me and said “I would expect that from one of my hockey players but not you”.

    I also liked Motley Crue a lot in grade 7, and because I had just begun learning French decided to ask my French teacher what the lyric about menage a trois meant. It was very innocent of me, and she told me it meant three people living in a house together.
