That answer sucked.

Didn’t I see this joke a week or so ago?

This was also the cartoon for 11/16/2016 – with a couple of slight differences (“History Test Today” was written in the corner of the blackboard, angle of our POV was different in each panel).

I guess that’s how the term " getting Hoovered" came into being.

And Jerry Ford’s great quote was, “I’m a Ford, not a Lincoln.”

I don’t think the teacher will be amused.

Hey wait a minute…this is deja vu all over again.

This kid reminds me of me. I used to give the most outlandish answers; but they moved me on along with the other flotsam and jetsam, and kicked me out of H.S. with a diploma.

It was an “Eureka” moment…

My mom preferred the Electrolux. It was the biggest sucker of them all.

It was a HARDing question, and the poor kid was in a HAYS. How can you get MADison when he GRANTs you such a COOLidge answer? At least he didn’t FILLMORE space by beating around the BUSH. His response was a perfect TRUMP.

It was actually:

“A chicken in every pot and a car in every garage” – 1928 U.S. presidential campaign slogan of Herbert Hoove

Hover’s sounds better than Al Smith’s, referring to his stand in favor of repealing Prohibition.

“Make your wet dreams come true.”

He really got sucked in there.
