SAN FRANCISCO MAN BECOMES FIRST AMERICAN TO GRASP MEANING OF IRONY
Jay Fullmer, 38, yesterday became the first American to
get to grips with
the concept of irony. "It was weird" Fullmer said. "I
was in London and,
like, talking to this guy and it was raining and he pulled
a face and said,
"great weather eh?" and I thought "Wait a minute, no
way is it great
weather".
Fullmer then realised that the other man's 'mistake'
was in fact deliberate.
Fullmer, who is 39 next month and married with two children,
aged 8 and 3,
plans to use irony himself in future. "I'm, like, using
it all the time." he
said. "Last weekend I was grilling steaks and I burned
them to a crisp and I
said "hey, great weather".
The following is a History of the World from genuine student bloopers
collected from
teachers throughout the US, from 8th grade to college level.
Read carefully and you will learn a lot.
Ancient Egypt was inhabited by mummies and they all wote in hydraulics.
They lived in the Sarah Dessert and traveled by Camelot.
The climate of the Sarah is such the the inhabitants have to live elsewhere,
so certain areas of the dessert are cultivated by irritation.

tall silk hat.
He said, "In onion there is strength." On the night of April 14 1865
Lincoln went to the theatre and got shot in his seat by one of the actors
