Posts Tagged ‘Black Belt Test’

It would only be just deserts.

June 23rd, 2009

Good morning crew,

Tonight is part one of the black belt test, folks (last
night from your perspective). This is the endurance portion
of the test which consists of two hours of random torture.

Despite having gone through it twice before I still feel a
little nervous. Who knows what kind of deviltry the masters
have cooked up. But what’s the worst that can happen? I get
humiliated and made to cry like a little girl?

It would only be just deserts considering how many actual
little girls I have made cry while helping to administer
this exact same test over the previous years.

I’ll let you know how it goes tomorrow.

Laugh it up,

Joe

Mixed Metaphors

English professors love to catch the errors students make in
their term papers, and they love nothing better than to catch
mixed metaphors. The “friends and survivors” of Calvin College
English department collected this list of mixed metaphors and
posted them on their web site:

“He swept the rug under the carpet.”
“She’s burning the midnight oil at both ends.”
“It was so cold last night I had to throw another blanket on
  the fire.”
“It’s time to step up to the plate and cut the mustard.”
“She’s robbing Peter to pay the piper.”
“He’s up a tree without a paddle.”
“Beware my friend…you are skating on hot water.”
“Keep your ear to the grindstone.”
“Sometimes you’ve gotta stick your neck out on a limb.”
“Some people sail through life on a bed of roses like a knife
  slicing through butter.”

*———————- Guaranteed to Roll Your Eyes ———————–*

A vacationer e-mailed a seaside hotel to ask its location.
“It’s only a stone’s throw away from the beach,” he was
told.

“But how will I recognize it?” asked the man.

The reply came back: “It’s the one with all the broken
windows.”
