Loading ...A boy and his classmates arrive at school on Monday. Their teacher tells them that every Friday he will ask the class a question on what they have been learning, and that whoever answers it correctly will not have to go to school until Tuesday.
With this, the boy decides for the first week to see how hard the question is. On Friday, the teacher asks the class, “How much water is in the Atlantic Ocean?” The boy thinks to himself, that doesn’t seem too hard, next week I’ll study a little, and see if I can answer the question correctly.”
So the next week, the boy studies a little, and on Friday the teacher asks a question. He asks, “How much sand is there in the Sahara desert?” The boy thinks to himself, “I don’t know that, but I didn’t study that much, and he decides to study a whole lot the next week.”
Friday rolls around, and in the week that had passed, the boy had been in his room studying at great length, it was all he did. On Friday, the teacher asks, “How many stars are there in the galaxy?” The boy thinks to himself, I did all this studying, and I still don’t know the answer.
At this time, the boy is very annoyed, and for the next week’s question he does not study at all. On the Friday, he instead brings two big black marbles to school. The teacher is about to ask his question when the boy hurls the two large marbles at his teacher, narrowly missing him, and smashing on the chalk board.
In reaction to this, the teacher says, “Alright, who’s the comedian with the big black balls?”
The boy replies, “Eddie Murphy, see ya Tuesday.”
