I remember, as a child, the teacher asking us what the smallest coin was. I promptly blurted out, "The dime!" but the answer she wanted was the penny. It's all in how you look at the question, just take it from these kids:
Perhaps they got their subjects mixed up.
They did say "Briefly."
This is kind of brilliant.
This kid is going to grow up right.
And I thought puberty was already awkward...this answer makes it sound even more so.
What version of Old McDonald did this kid grow up with?
Well duh. That one was easy!
Honesty is the best policy. Just be careful when you start filling out job applications, Frankie.
The cliques are forming already and this kid wants to be on top.
Pop culture meets biology. And wasn't that rumor debunked, anyway?
Well, it was worth a shot. Who knows what mysteries lie in the minds of chromosomes?
Perhaps the teacher should have expanded on what they meant by "expand."
Hard-core dare-devil right here.
Sorry, Teacher, you didn't hide it very well.
At what age can we attribute this to a Freudian slip?
Genius!
Well, technically...
Tedison. That's original.
Has anyone actually measured the frequency of some of those notes she belts out?
What a compassionate soul... That's right, kid. You've got it right.
Oh heck. Extra credit for authenticity.
Full point for amusing attitude, minus half a point for language.
Yes, but that's the EASY way.
Cells are social animals, they need to be around their own kind.
They forgot sexism, caste systems, and tax brackets.
Between 'mum' and 'trousers,' this answer must be from Britain.
This is probably the most legitimate answer ever.
