Teacher: What is it, Rick? Rick: I think Joanie's having her baby! Right now! Joanie: Unh! Teacher: Hmm... what's the duration of the contractions? Rick: 60 seconds, every two minutes!

What’s funny is Rick says, “I think Joanie is having HER baby.” I have suggestion for a name, how about, shut up you useless bag of dirt. Can be rather catchy. LOL.
