What is the punchline of your favorite joke?

I take attendance by asking students a question.

What is the punchline of your favorite joke? (previously)

  • everything was covered in "de-brie"
  • "You're funny... funny looking"
  • "Maybe next time you should estimate me!"
  • drum noise
  • laugh (hopefully at others)
  • lmaoooo
  • A grasshopper walks into a bar... find me for the rest
  • "It's you guys, the audience"
  • lol
  • You are a joke
  • Yo' mama
  • dab
  • fshhh
  • porcupine
  • gottem
  • Don't leaf me I'm bushed!
  • ketchup
  • this suit is black not
  • I don't remember
  • uh... I forgot it
  • that's what she said
  • Stone Cold Steve Austin
  • You're bad.
  • gottee
  • Deafening Silence
  • I don't have any favorite joke
  • Babanana
  • "forcefully ejecting air out of my nose"
  • that's it
  • Told you so
  • hole in one
  • N/A
  • 189
Some of those were mysterious.


This post's theme word is robustious (adj), "strong and sturdy; boisterous; coarse or crude." I suspect some robustious jokes are hiding in there.

Your supervillain/hero catchphrase

I take attendance by asking the students a question. Today's afternoon session was thematically linked to the morning, though I don't think anyone submitted answers that used that link.

If you were a superhero/villain, what would your catchphrase be? (previously)

Lots of noises:

  • woo-hoo
  • Oh no
  • yo yo
  • wee woo
  • nothing
  • Silence!
  • *silence*
  • none -- I would keep myself "mysterious"
  • ummmm.
  • badda bing badda baah
  • HaHaHaHaHaHa
And then some, nefarious or virtuous depending on how you read them / how they are delivered:
  • gonna hack em all.
  • I'll be the God of the New World
  • "seize the means of production"
  • Here goes
  • "the end"
  • Aight I'm a head out
  • Run it through valgrind
  • Never fear, is here!
  • Please don't fight back
  • Gotta Catchem All
  • Not on my watch
  • Listen to my full monologue!
  • I'm sleepy :(
  • lol good luck guys
  • Too much sauce
  • Big O!
I definitely can see a sinister cackle following "Listen to my full monologue!"


This post's theme word is skail (verb intr.): "to scatter out, spill, or disperse." The assembled crowds skailed before the doomsday machine.
