A teacher was working with a group of underprivileged children,trying to broaden their horizons through sensory exploration.With their eyes closed, they would feel objects from pumicestones to pine cones and smell aromatic herbs and exotic fruits.Then one day, the teacher brought in a great variety of lifesavers,more flavors 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 identifythe taste of cherries, lemons and mint, but when the teacherhad them put honey flavored lifesavers in their mouths, every oneof the children was stumped.“I’ll give you a hint,“ said the teacher. „It’s something yourDaddy and Mommy probably call each other all the time.“Instantly, one of the children spat the lifesaver out of his mouthand shouted, „Spit ‚em out, you guys, they’re assholes!“
