Yeah, I’ve failed this particular test as well.
I did get your (Homer’s) joke, though! Good one.

The Simpsons used to have some of the funniest observations on humor.

Another Biden Gaffe: POTUS Says ‘We Resolve Our Differences At The Battle Box’ In Oval Office Speech (youtube.com)
He almost said, “Make America Great Again.”
Having an octagon on the floor of the house where the amendment proposers to bills have to fight it out to get theirs attached would make CSPAN way more interesting.

Bonus is we would vote in all new people every few years because who wants to see two 75-80 year old broads duking it out.

Major outlet’s editor ‘wants to ban Trump iconic raised fist photo’ (msn.com)
What would make you think that banning a photo would make it less viewed?
I’m old enough to remember 2 Live Crew’s follow up to Nasty As They Wanna Be, which I’m old enough to have had a bootleg copy of in elementary school BECAUSE IT WAS BANNED.

I don’t understand why critics don’t like Katy Perry’s new music:
Can anyone tell me if there’s an R rated version of the lyrics?
Coach Greg and one of his pals checking other’s physiques, trying to decide if they would “swap” bodies. They both would swap with Vladislava Galagan. I would not swap bodies with her. But if she smiled and said hello to me, I would melt.
The worst English teacher I ever had was a football coach. I wrote a paper about The Catcher in the Rye and he accused me of plagiarizing it because I used the phrase “larcenous pimp.” Apparently big words are scary and I was too young to be using them.
He escalated it to the principal, and there I pointed out that that plagiarism is three or more consecutive words - so even if what he claimed was true, it didn’t matter, and anyone teaching English should be aware of that.
Yeah, he hated me after that embarrassment. I’m sure he took it out on the team that afternoon.

Our offensive coordinator was a biology teacher who coached on the side. We didn’t score many touchdowns.
