I Can Tell When My Students Have Seen Star Wars

I can tell when my students have seen Star Wars because they’ll walk up to me and say, “I’m your father!” which inevitably escalates to, “No, I’m your grandfather.”

“No, I’m your grand-grand-grand-grand father.”

“No, I’m — I’m your ghost!”

At which point I look them in the eye and say, “No, I’m you.”

And their minds explode.
