Taiwan

So at the request of some parents (ahem Sally) we have started getting together some of the funny, stupid and just plain retarded things that we see here, on the wonderful island of Taiwan.  Since we are all teachers a lot of our stories have to do with students, which makes them even better. So... enjoy!




Teacher: What's "recycle?"
Student: It's bicycles brother.

Student: I know how your married teacher.
Teacher Steph: How?
Student: (pointing to Steph's boobs) Because you have really big NaNas.

On a Test. 
Student had to give a Would/If sentence:
Teacher Lucas would have a baby if he brought his girlfriend into the bedroom.
