If there are any idiots in the room

If there are any idiots in the room, will they please stand up”, said the sarcastic teacher.

“Now then mister, why do you consider yourself an idiot?”, inquired the teacher with a sneer.


“Well, actually I don’t,” said the student, “but I hate to see you standing up there all by yourself.”
