(Ms. Garrison explains evolution to her class)
Ms. Garrison: In the beginning, we were all fish, okay? Swimming around in the water. And then one day a couple of fish had a retard baby, and the retard baby was different, so it got to live. So retard fish goes on to make more retard babies, and then one day a retard baby fish crawled out of the ocean with its... mutant fish hands, and it had butt-sex with a squirrel or something... and made this - retard frog squirrel. And that had a retard baby which was a... monkey fish frog... (class stares, blankly) and then this monkey fish frog had butt-sex with that monkey, and that monkey had a mutant retard baby that screwed another monkey, and that made you. (class stares, blankly) So there you go. You're the retarded offspring of five monkeys having butt-sex with a fish squirrel. Congratulations.
