"I Love You" and Other Random Utterings by my Students

Sometimes my students say and do the funniest things.  Oftentimes it is a result of some hilarious Engrish they've got going on, but at other times I can tell they are purposely trying to be funny.

Take the time when a group of second-year JHS boys all told me they loved me through their giggles.  Or the kid whose name tag reads "Peanut Butter".  Or another with "Jack Sparrow" and a third with "Beautiful Horse" (which, to his credit is an alternative reading to the kanji in his name).  Or the kid who said "Oh My God" with a horrendous American accent every time he saw me for a good 3 months.  Or the kid who stands up in class and answers the question how's the weather today? with "sushi".

Sometimes it's all you can do not to laugh out loud.
