Holy ****. I don't know how many times I have heard this, this year, and corrected them.

"An example of a developed country is the U.S.A. and an example of an undeveloped country is Africa"

Really funny stuff. Though, I do question the ethics of a teacher posting student responses online so they can be laughed at.

Bill cosby saves the day.

I have never posted names, school, or maybe I am just making up the whole thing.

There are several books from teachers that are filled with quotes from students, and purpose of the book is humor.

I just read another really funny quote, but it is kind of disturbing.

You shouldn't write things like that chriss.
