A Muslim English Teacher Has a Complaint in Saudi Arabia

Post by General Mackevili »

This is just too strange not to share, LoL.

A Muslim English teacher from Egypt came into the staff room and approached an American teacher yesterday.

He told him he erased his message on the white board that said, and I quote, "Important Dates:"

Why, you may ask? Before I tell you, let's see if anyone can guess, LoL.

The answer may shock you. :popcorn:
"Life is too important to take seriously."

"Life does not cease to be funny when people die any more than it ceases to be serious when people laugh."

I'm guessing that it wasn't 'Meak Bochea'.

At a guess: Fancy dress beer and BBQ behind the music room tonight. Come dressed as a no-fun religious policeman, dress your beer as pepsi and your spare ribs as lamb. Make sure your girlfriend has the full mustache and beard disguise; BYO of course. :popcorn:

I give up :unknown:

The things that came to mind for me were - a confusion between fruits and calendars. The idea that "important" could only be determined by god and not by people.

Important dates was a record of sexual experiences?

Is it the punctuation this child of the desert objected to?
I find both Sunni and Shia more than a little abstruse.

Tendency to nit pick in order to show off to their betters.
Then there is also the cultural penchant of raping anything that is unable to successfully flee.

Objectionable folk, though clean about their persons.
The constant wailing of the muezzin is an undeniable causative factor in their intransigent ways.

Personally, I think the Yankees would be doing the rest of us a service by releasing one of those abominable diseases into the middle east that they are constantly developing at Fort Dietrich.
