Student 1: So prehistory means the time before written records? Like when dinosaurs roamed the Earth?
Me: Exactly.
Student 2: And dragons. I wish dragons hadn’t gone extinct.
Me: Erm, dragons are mythological creatures. They never existed.
Student 2: (Clearly crushed) This is literally the most disappointing thing I have ever heard.
It’s amazing that the young don’t hurt themselves just getting out of bed in the morning. LOL, I used to be more patient…then I got old. Now I’m thinking the human race is simply doomed.
Sometimes, they say insightful, perceptive things… sometimes. Mostly though, they talk about dragons and Playstation. You get a lot less patient the older you get it seems 🙂
I’m 31 and all I talk about is dragons and PlayStation!
To be fair, I have just finally completed GTA5.
You must be a cool teacher!
As a treat the other day, we discussed the ending of GTA V, and the moral dilemmas the game presents and blah blah…I just wanted to talk about GTA V for once haha!
I’m with Student 2, disappointed. 😦
I know, it’s quite crushing
😉
Hee hee hee… wait, dragons weren’t real????
Unless you could Komodo dragons?
Those are some pretty shit dragons.
*count damn autocorrect
If that’s literally the most disappointing thing student 2 has ever heard, student 2 has a tough road ahead, methinks.
I think they were joking…at least, I hope!
