Adventures in Japanese Class

Today my teacher was telling us about how the Japanese eat sea cucumbers. It came up because a sea cucumber dish was used on a worksheet we were doing, you see we were practicing a new grammar where yadda yadda never mind.

 

One of my classmates (surprisingly it was not me) said that sea cucumbers just made her think of Spongebob, particularly the one episode with a sea cucumber who was a jerk.

 

I'm probably paraphrasing a bit, but my teacher's response to hearing about this jerk of a sea cucumber was "Well, we can eat him."

 

I feel like things escalated very quickly there but I'm okay with it.

I feel like Japanese classes always have those kinds of beautiful moments.  I remember I walked in to class one day and my TA was explaining how she had almost got hit by a car earlier.

 

TA: *completely deadpan, polite tone* "I was walking across the street, and I looked up, and - I thought, oh, my day is over."

 

We felt bad for laughing, but only a little.
