We all must get these crazy sentences from time to time. Most of them I can suss out. The following one is a mystery to me:

"Work slave it is wonderful."

This one I did finally sort out:

"I fisted my family on the weekend."

What are some of your favorites?

And I'm sure the French speakers are chuckling at the spelling on the heading of your post as well. Very Happy

Last week, I was asked, "teacher, how you spell hymen?" Embarassed

Thinking to myself that this can't possibly be happening, I asked, "wh wh what's the sentence?" Turned out she was looking for human. Embarassed

I still inwardly laugh when one of my students asks me for a "rubber". Shocked

I, instinctively, want to reach for my wallet. Laughing

One of my female students once wrote that "boys are made of cockies".

She meant to be poetic- they are sweet and are made of cookies.

Saudi AF member: Me and brother went to the bit*h!

Me: Excuse me?

Saudi AF member: We went Half-Moon Bay to swim.

Note found on my desk:

Dear Miss VS,

I came on your desk.

But, you are not here.

Please tick for me that I was here.

Dear NCTBA,

So, presumably, if you were rude to a lady (or a certain sort of gentleman) at the shore, you would run the risk of getting "BEACH SLAPPED."

Regards,
