Golden Fucolate


Welcome back to the school week, children. It's Mr. Phillips again, ready to portion out your daily dose of Who Gives a Shit?

Today it's Tom:


Tom is your typical, highly-evolved Korean child, with the oblong head, the starched shirt and the face. He is also one of more unruly boys in class. Beware, though, lest ye discipline him! His mother is a prominent member of a national television corporation, and she can bring her resources to bear. (Like, you know, calling the principal.) Imagine my surprise when he turned in this week's delectable nugget.

The assignment was to design your own Golden Ticket. We went over the possible components of a ticket like instructions, location and prizes. Naturally, being the adroit educator that I am, I encouraged the students to expand upon the components. To dip deep into their brain buckets and bring forth a ticket worthy of Wonka himself. What did Tom do? He added "Golden Rubbish" and "fucolate" as prizes.

Giving trash and combining "chocolate" with "fuck". This is why I teach.
