A PIECE OF *ASSS* SO GOOD IT BRINGS TEARS TO YOUR EYES \n\nA teacher asked her students to use the word \n"definitely" properly in a sentence. Lil Susie goes first \nand declares "The sky is definitely blue". The teacher \nreplies "It's cloudy, today Susie ... the sky is actually gray." Bobby goes next by saying \n"The grass is definitely green", to which the teacher corrects him "No, Bobby .... it's late autumn and the grass is actually brown." ...... \nThen Lil Johnny asks a question "Teacher, \nDo farts have lumps in them" ? ........ \nThe teacher gives Johnny a very stern look, \nand says in firm voice "No Johnny, they don't" ! ........ \nLil Johnny replies back "Then I DEFINITELY shitt my pants" ! \n\nLOL
