Siamese Potatoes

My Linguistics professor tells us that the brain resembles "siamese potatoes."

I am beginning to wonder where this school finds its professors.

Mr. Comparative Government professor pronounced my name wrong when he decided to call on me in class. And so, I did not answer. I wasn't sure who he had called on. He's staring at me the entire time. He tries again. "Did I say that right?"

I can understand mispronouncing my last name. Phonetically, the way my family pronounces it is not correct. But my first name??

You hear that boom? That's the sound of my mind blowing.
