When we are watching a movie the last half of class after a week of testing and a student asks me in a semi pompous voice, 'Why are we watching this? What does it have to do with anything we are learning?' I would like to say, 'WHY DO YOU SUCK? I'M DOING YOU A FAVOR DANG IT.'
Instead I say, 'We could list all the hyperboles that are said. Or we could just watch it.' To which she replies 'Let's just watch it.'
That's what I thought.
