Girl #1: It’s such a shame. I mean, if only there was some semblance of religious tolerance…
Girl #2: I know. Muslims, Christians, Jews… It’s all the same god, but different rules.
Girl #3: Wait, is a Muslim just a black Jew?
Girl #1: … No. A black Jew is a Jewish person who is black. It’s a different religion.
Girl #3: Oh. Okay. That’s confusing.
Girl #2: No, no, it’s really not.

Student: So, basically I’ve come to beg for my life.
Professor: Go on.
Student: So, I need this class to graduate, right? But I know I’m failing. The problem is I’m taking too many credit hours and stopped coming to class, but this guy that I know who was taking notes for me and whatever — he stopped coming to class because he says he can’t stand to listen to you drone on and on.

Professor: Oh, Lord, no.
