that was beautiful...
I like Jeremy's ongoing tree motif throughout both of his essays, genius.
And the Walt Whitman one was actually pretty creative, the "Emily Dickenson Axe" and the like, and the use of profanity was eloquent.
Thanks for sharing, I think I'll go eat now.

Holy shit! Those were fantastic! El "niÑo" was the best.
"Like all things Spanish, it is dangerous."
"If we had a word for this kind of people that word would be 'fisherman'. But we don't."
"We are too proud. We will not commit human sacrifices."
"These other places are to the east. Of the water."
I could go on forever!

How old are grad students?
I suppose most 10 year old kids don't have the word satiate in their vocabularies.

Wilhelm, I take it you are not aware of how, when writing essays, all American schoolchildren copy randomly from encyclopedias and the internet? ;)
(only half-kidding)
I think it was highschool students, plus a little crack. Or maybe 7th or 8th graders. Generally, only highschools (grades 9 through 12, ages 13/14 through 17/18) have class periods. Also, the humor level reminds me of what my brothers were doing to act out in English class at around age 11 or 12. |

These have now been printed out and passed round my workplace to much hilarity and uproar.
Uproar is a sin. My coworkers are sinners.
Sinning is what was done in biblical times when people had fun.
They had fun in biblical times.
They ate dirt.
Dirt is fun, therefore dirt is a sin. |

You know I have often wondered where Zeus found the time to throw down all those lightening bolts. It's good to know I'm not alone in such wonderment.

Edwin Starr? 'War'?
"War! (Huh!) What is it Good For? Ab-so-lute-ly Nothin'!"
"Lightning! (Hah! Yeah!) Where does it Come From?"

Hey now, I never claimed it. Some joker just gave it to me and I couldn't turn it down. It was so cute! At the time I hadn't imagined what backlash it could bring me.
Ah, but now the joke she has come for to me, and so I weep quietly...for my tree she is a knocked down. |
