It's the last day of class before summer break, and Little Johnny's teacher has decided to let the kids off early. But not wanting to waste an opportunity, she tells the class, "I'm going to give you a quote, and if you can tell me who said it, you may leave early."
Little Johnny is ecstatic. He can do this easily.
"Who said, 'four score and seven years ago'?" asks the teacher.
Before Little Johnny can answer, Suzie speaks up from the back of the class, "Abraham Lincoln!"
"Very good, Suzie," says the teacher, "you may go." She turns to the blackboard and crosses Suzie's name off her list. Little Johnny is perturbed but confident he'll be quicker next time.
"Who said, 'I have a dream'?" asks the teacher.
Little Johnny knows the answer! But even as he opens his mouth, Carla shouts out, "Martin Luther King!"
"Very good, Carla," says the teacher, "you may go." She turns to the blackboard and crosses Carla's name off her list. Little Johnny is getting quite angry now, determined to get one right and leave.
"Who said, 'We have nothing to fear but fear itself'?" asks the teacher.
Little Johnny rockets out of his seat and starts to speak, but Betty has already uttered the words, "Franklin Roosevelt!"
"Very good, Betty," says the teacher, "you may go." She turns to the blackboard to cross Betty's name off her list.
Little Johnny slumps back down in his chair and mutters, "I wish those stupid bitches would have kept their damn mouths shut."
Mortified, the teacher wheels around. "Who said that?!?"
Little Johnny perks up. "Tiger Woods! Can I go home now?"
