John-isms

In my embryology class there's this boy. His name is John. And he is weird. And by weird I mean I wonder how they let him live on his own. He's from Hong Kong but is white, and says that 1/3 of Hong Kong speaks English. And he is weird. But I think I already mentioned that. Every time I'm in embryology John decides that he has to add his two cents. About everything. Without raising his hand or being called on. Even if it has nothing to do with what we're talking about. Here are some John-isms:

(On Down Syndrome) So do you think that this qualifies as a psychological disorder of women, because they're getting pickier and won't settle for a man and put off marriage until they're older, and in essence are asking to have children with Down Syndrome?

(On interacial marriages) I read that the sperm and the egg from different races are incompatible with each other, which is why interacial couples have a hard time reproducing. Kind of like a horse and a donkey, they're similar but different species. (Kid in class: different races are the same species...) I think that this is why the church says to marry within your own race. (Teacher: keep that to yourself).

(On being able to fertilize a human egg in the lab with another egg) (Teacher: do you know what this means?) This means that in the future they won't need us anymore. The feminists are going to be so happy.

(On not being able to find a quiz answer in the textbook) I could be wrong but I'm usually not.

(On the structures that connect the placenta to the uterus) (Very smugly) There's one problem with this: there's no blood in the Resurrection, so all of this machinery is useless in the resurrected female.

(After the professor explained that in Berlin teachers have a higher social status than doctors) Do you know why that is? (Teacher: I'm guessing it's because of the government) No. It's because during the Holocaust the medical professionals experimented on humans.

Hopefully this made you laugh as hard as I have to keep myself from doing during class.
