Contagious 7/10
February 22, 2006
A teacher asks her class to use the word ‘contagious’.
Richard the class swot gets up and says, “Last year I got the measles
and my Mum said it was contagious”.
“Well done, Richard” says the teacher. “Can anyone else try?”
Katie, a sweet little girl with pigtails, says, “My grandma says
there’s a bug going around, and it’s contagious”.
“Well done, Katie” says the teacher. “Anyone else?”
Little Irish Shaun jumps up and says in a broad Irish voice, “Our
next door neighbour is painting his house
with a two inch brush and my dad says “It will take the contagious”.
