One ot my Kteaching friends has asked me this question.

What are some sarcastic, humerous phrases to use when you see someone that is currently in trouble or hurting,

Ie: you have a bunch of candy but you won't share, you eat them all and then have a stomach ache, someone walks by and says........

Ie: a student is sitting in the hallway on there knees with hands over thier head, another teacher walks bye and says........

Thanks a bunch for your help

A Nelson Muntz 'HA HA!' is most appropriate in these situations, I believe.

I wonder what to do when, in my badminton club, some as$$ laughs at me for flubbing up.

wow, laughing at someone for making a mistake. that's so high-brow. and classy, too. i bet you'll be hip-deep in p*ssy after that remark. why not throw in an "American Idol" reference, too, to hit it at its peak.

If you're going to puke, try to make it to the trash can.

At my middle school when a kid is in front of the teachers room on his knees and hands up, I always laugh and say "napayo". They usually smile though.

...is that how we're greeting each other now?

or
...comfortable?

or
...so that's how you'd look with no legs.

or
...who let the smurf in here?

or...yes? Do you have a question? You have your hand up.

could you say "shouldn't you be in an orange jumpsuit?" or is that still too sensitive of an issue?

Say "huh...I thought you only did the big bow on Chuseok and New years?"

Or say "Big bow for me? I don't deserve that much respect"
