If you're sick and your wife is working on a twenty page graduate school research paper, and you just need your two boys to go upstairs, take their showers, brush their teeth, and get into bed without incident, then one boy will probably race into the other boy's room -- naked -- and pee on his floor (which
almost struck me as funny, except that I was sick and my wife was hard at work on her paper . . . my children never choose the right time or audience for their humor . . . they have no timing).
It's never funny when someone pisses on my floor. You pee in the house not on the house.
ReplyDeleteIt's hard to believe that an English teacher would make such an egregious grammatical error when the juxtaposition of homonyms four words apart shines a light directly on it.
