You know, if you're trying to teach kids the letter s, wouldn't you be better off with something that starts with the sound 's' rather than 'sh'?
I wondered the same thing. Maybe the teacher was going for something familiar, which makes the story even better.
That's an excellent abortion column, I'm swiping it.
It's really time I 'fessed up: I am baa. That's why there's usually only one of us around at a time.

Plagiarism, libel, sexual harassment; there's really nothing you won't do, is there?
Arguably she doesn't do the sexual harrassment thing nearly enough.
"the comforting prism of her own middle-class background."
Where do I get one of those?
Let your intuition guide you, baa.
How do we know it's really baa, and not bitchphd in a wool sweater? Note the lack of certain characteristic: phrasing!

"I thought you just told me they used radio."
"They do, but what do you think is on the radio? Meat sounds. You know how when you slap or flap meat, it makes a noise? They talk by flapping their meat at each other. They can even sing by squirting air through their meat."

From the abortion article:
Or does she buy into the myth that, in the absence of accessible sexual information, the kids stop shagging and sublimate their urges with conker tournaments and French knitting?
I have no idea what those last two things are, but they sound dirtier than the shagging alternative.

I'm waiting for d-squared to show up and insist that the Welsh were fucking sheep long before any Montanans ever had the notion.
Sheepherding is only a century old in Montana, whereas there have been sheep in Wales for a much longer period. So I'm willing to grant that the Montanans' more sophisticated methods were a later development of the crude but pathbreaking early attempts of the Welsh.
Perhaps we could modify the Dostoevsky anecdote to say that the 8-year-old boy serf had fucked the general's sheep, and see how the math comes out on that one.
A voice from the wet and windy British Isles will let you know that sheep shagger is a favored (or favoured, to the locals) insult directed at anyone froma rural area. It would be my favorite (or favourite if, as ogged seems to think, I were actually British), were it not for the Irish term of abuse, muck savage.
I hereby nominate w-lfs-n as unfogged's chief muck savage. Have I a second?
