The Setting:


- an undergrad English classroom with six students and one teacher

The topic: writing poetry

Student A: You should try the bob and wheel technique, like in "Sir Gawain and the Green Knight."

Student B: ::looking flabbergasted:: It's too...constipated.

::giggles in classroom::

Student A: Student B, that's such a hard word.

::guffaws in classroom for next thirty minutes as students and teacher make constipated jokes::

This student's contribution: a new cure for writer's block: a glass or two of room temperature apple juice
