I personally have always found disks quite delicious . . . but maybe I just roll like that.

I was wondering what on earth the student might have meant by that. I'm still wondering. Maybe he just likes plastic.

"It is boring that the cup is full of ants."

Really? I would find that situation rather exciting.

I was curious about the cup of ants as well. On my MySpace blog Sheri commented that some of the sentences make you wonder about the situation that gave rise to them.

Part of it must be translating from Chinese. The term for "boring" in Chinese is "mai you yi se" literally "does not have interest," but it is similar to "bu hao yi se" which literally translates as "not good idea" but which actually means "embarassing."

I can imagine someone finding it embarassing that they have a cup full of ants. At least, that's easier to imagine than someone finding it boring.
