Hi Bill,
I decided to read your post as soon as I saw the title. For some reason, I love alliteration...
The conversation between these two young men is very funny. You reminded me of something my previous boss used to say about the inspector. We have to write a Syllabus document at the beginning of the course and he told us he was sure that even if we retold Little Red Riding Hood in there the Inspection wouldn't notice.
Thanks so much for sharing. Now I understand why you have such a high ranking as a script writer.

You've got to admire the two for attempting the assignment. I hope they'll see it through. Since occasionally comes right after school, the correct interpretation would be a reference to students who attended school infrequently. It sounds like they're going to do the paper primarily to test teacher. It's unfortunate there are probably teachers like him who don't read the papers they've assigned. judi

I remember writing a twenty-page report for a teacher who graded it over his prep hour. Got an A. No marks or comments.

It's disgusting that a teacher will assign such a lengthy report and then not read it. Most students would just be concerned about the grade, anyway. judi

In need of a topic for their paper, Bill? How's this? What happens when you change a word someone texts with all the time, to a dirty one? If someone talks about football constantly, change the word to, "penis" or something like that. What would a person who can't change it back do? ;)

My son did that to his sister?s phone once. Instead of "Hi" she would send "I smoke weed."

Every time my sister asks me to "pick her up some wine" she asks me to "pick her up some dick" 😆 That was her daughter. 😆

Lol! I see shades of Pons and Ned humor here. I like your puns and yes, English and word order does open sentences up for creative interpretations. This could lead to an interesting research paper. I guess it's a collaborative one?

This is an interesting short dialogue. There are hints that your fellows have some serious wordsmithing echoing around in their heads, to try and trick their teacher. Kate xx

ACK! Didn't your mother teach you not to call other people names?
Comment from BethShelby
I think a few student tried that in my day. I didn't got that far but I put some pretty ridicuous answers on test when I didn't know the answers but the darn teacher read them anyway. It seems dodge is the logical of this pair, but I guess we will see. I think Dip is heading for trouble.

Or they will prove their theory about grading.
Comment from Spitfire
As a former teacher too, I can connect with this spoof on students preparing to concoct a nonsensical report. Of course, it wouldn't fool me being a butcher when it comes to grading essay papers.

I wrote a book report on a fictitious story of the life of Jesus called "Mary Had a Little Lamb" by Mot Senoj. My teacher wanted to see the book. Dooh!

That's hilarious.
Comment from Michael Ludwinder
This was enjoyable. A little short but an enjoyable read. Great use of dialogue as the script felt natural. The characters came to life just with the dialogue which is a terrific accomplishment.
