If you've known me for a while you know that I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE when the word "french" is used as a verb. Which is why this little tidbit makes me all the more delighted.
Our class is finishing up a novel study of the Sci-Fi classic A Wrinkle in Time. At the end of the book, our heroine (Meg) and the boy she had been pining for the whole story (Calvin) finally kiss.
When this happened, one of the young men in my class sheepishly raised his hand and asked:
"Miss, did Meg and Calvin just kiss? Or did they French?"
ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!
To which I replied "I guess you will just have to use your imagination..."
Kids these days...

Ah yes. I've had 4th graders playing rock paper scissors in order to figure out who is going to ask a girl "on a date", and when she said get lost, they called her gay.
ReplyDeleteI was like oh wow- here we go.
My kids are just starting all of this, "You liiiike him" business. However, they say it all in Spanish, thinking I won't get it. But I can see it in their little eyes...I'm smarter than I look.
