You didn't answer my question. Did you receive it or not? Girl: I love you Dad! You're the best! Dad: Don't try to butter me up. I can guess that your answer means that you didn't do well in some of your classes? Girl: Well, my English teacher is soooo boring, and he blows up every time someone talks.

Dad: Okay, and what about algebra? Girl: Ah, I'm acing that class. No sweat. Dad: Oh! Girl: Can I go now? Dad: And how are you doing in history? Girl: Oh, that's my favorite class. Mr. Jones is always passing out candy if you know the answers to his questions. Dad: Great. Now, I have a bright daughter with tooth decay. Girl: Ah, Dad. Can I go now? Dad: You can go if you answer my history question. How old am I? Girl: Uh, fifty-five? Dad: Fifty-five! You just failed a math and history test at the same time! Girl: Dad ...
