Ms. Jones, third grade teacher was conducting an exercise in association. She wanted her students to learn the connection between some particular tastes and the names of those flavors. To this end, she brought in several packs of different flavors of LifeSavers.
She passed around the first. It was white with red stripes. The class promptly identified and named the taste of peppermint.
Next came a yellow candy. Again the class quickly called out "lemon".
Several more candies were distributed and each time the children successfully identified the flavor.
Then Ms. Jones dug into her desk and come up with a LifeSaver candy that was brown. She thought that she could stump the class with this honey flavored candy. Sure enough, after two minutes had passed, still no student could identify the taste.
In an effort to assist the class in identifying the mystery candy Ms. Jones gave them a hint. "Class, the clue to this flavor is - what does your mommy call your daddy?"
Little Johnny's Lifesaver flew across the room as he expelled it violently and yelled at the top of his lungs "Spit it out quick! It's an asshole!!!!!!!"
