Poet and Didn't Know It

I just thought this was funny...

One of my students kept talking while he was supposed to be working.

me: I can see you, and hear you too, as I have both eyes and ears.
girl student: (very seriously) You should write poetry.
me: (contemplating) hmmm, I had no idea that was poetic.

I suppose all forms of art are subjective.

I also thought this was funny...

I have a student who is fabulously the pleasantly odd type of person I so much appreciate. Today she made up a "Vote for Pedro" ad.

E: Like a good neighbor Pedro is there. Vote for Pedro, but he won't save you any money on your car insurance.
me: Wow, you managed to blend two different insurance ads into one. Well done you.
E: Thanks.
