The Pit of Sarcasm!

Everyday after science class my friends and I trek down to the dreaded Pit of Sarcasm. Otherwise known as French class.

Now don't get me wrong: I have nothing against France or French People. In fact if you are French and are reading this, Salut mon amies! Well I forgot there is a translate widget thing. But anyway it's the teacher that's the trouble. I won't name names so let's just call him Bob.

So every class we go over the homework and makes fun of the people who mispronounce the words as we go around the room. So far I haven't made a mistake for him to rip on me for but I'm scared to death I'll screw it up badly and everyone will laugh. There is one kid in my class who never does his homework and doesn't understand sarcasm so Bob uses it all the time with him. I know I shouldn't, but I think it's kinda funny. Like there's this running joke about Françoise because that kid and another one pronounce français as frawn-swah so now whenever they say that Bob is like "Oh, Françoise, when did he get here again?" And we all laugh. Good times. So I have mixed feelings on the Pit of Sarcasm. On one hand it scares me and on the other it's entertainment. What do you think?
