Bored of education

March 30, 2026

Miss Johnson asked her third graders what they wanted to do when they grew up.

“I want to be a brain surgeon,” said Laurie.

“I want to be an astronaut,” said Emily.

“I want to be president,” said Lily.

“I want to be a drop-dead gorgeous, fabulously wealthy supermodel,” said Susie.

Noticing that none of the boys were participating, Miss Johnson said, “What about you, Billy? What do you want to do when you grow up?”

Billy replied, “I want to marry Susie.”
