A teacher was working with a group of children, trying to broaden their
horizons through sensory exploration. With their eyes closed, they would
feel objects from pumice stones to pine cones and smell aromatic herbs
and exotic fruits.

Then one day, the teacher brought in a great variety of lifesavers, more
flavor than you could ever imagine. "Children, I'd like you to close
your eyes and taste these," announced the teacher. Without difficulty,
they managed to identify the taste of cherries, lemons and mint, but when
the teacher had them put honey flavored lifesavers in their mouths, every
one of the children was stumped.

"I'll give you a hint," said the teacher. "It's something your Daddy and
Mommy probably call each other all the time."

Instantly, one of the children spat the lifesaver out of his mouth and
shouted, "Spit 'em out, you guys, they're assholes!"
