"I've just had the most awful time," said a boy to his friends. "First I got angina pectoris, then arteriosclerosis. Just as I was recovering, I got psoriasis. They gave me hypodermics, and to top it all, tonsillitis was followed by appendectomy."
"Wow! How did you pull through?" sympathized his friends.
"I don't know," the boy replied. "Toughest spelling test I ever had."

1.When the math teacher asks you a question, purposely answer incorrectly. Persist. See how long it keeps going.
In my class, this really happened with a kid named Rahul. The teacher asked him how many centimeters were in a meter, and he kept on saying "1" and he kept it going for the rest of the period. ( 20 minutes!!! )
2. When reading a book, scream, "NO! DON'T!!! LOOK OUT!"
3. Whenever you pick up a pencil, say the word "potato" or some other random word. Say it again when you set it down. See how long it takes for people to get what's happening.
4. Doodle in your notebook. At the end of the period, ask the teacher if he/she thinks that they're good.
5. Open a book and set it down like a tent. When attempting to enter it, keep crying "D'oh!" as long as you can.
6. Play cards.
7. Take all of the computers in the computer lab off of the internet.
8. Ask trivial questions, like, "Why is the subject called 'History?' why not Schnurples?" If you do that, use Schnurples for 'History' in all the rest of your papers.
9.If the school has those phones with the large blocks that go up and down when you take the phone off the hook, tape it down. The teacher will miss a call, and trust me, it's pretty annoying.
10. Give an apple to the teacher- but make sure it actually has a worm in it.
11. Create a set of common words (the, or, as, so, etc..) and scream whenever someone uses one of them.
12. If you are gifted with farting at will then fart whenever someone uses one of the words.
13. If you can't fart at will, burp.
14. Only speak in questions.
15. Only use a certain amount of words in each sentence.

(When I was in college, I used to work in the cafeteria. On this day, two girls are making fun of a third.)
Mean Girl #1: "Oooooh, a hamburger? So much for that diet."
Mean Girl #2: "Are you kidding? She's never been on a diet in her life!"
(The third girl who they are talking to is, for the record, very nice looking.)
Girl #3: *taken aback* "I...I worked out today. I need the protein."
Me: "Come on, leave her alone. She can eat whatever she wants!"
Mean Girl #1: "Yeah, I guess you don't have to worry about what you eat if you're already fat and ugly!"
(One of my coworkers has been listening from a distance. He walks over, looks all three girls up and down, and then turns to the third.)
Coworker: "Excuse me, miss, but do you think I could get your phone number?"
Girl #3: "Are you serious?"
Coworker: "Completely! Who wouldn't want a date with a beautiful girl who knows how to take care of herself?"
(This was five years ago. I'm going to be the best man at their wedding.)
