sternwomen: I am quite sure you all still remember with fear, those menacing index finger of your teachers when you were at school.Those teachers who were boringly talking and when they felt that a few boys had got away from what they were saying, they raising their tones of voice and used to say: “I am sure that everyone knows that, for instance….” Then the dreaded finger, started to point all over the class while terrified, the pupils stared at the end of the finger pointing over their heads and praying for it stopping indicating any other boy. When the finger finally stops, it aims to an unfortune boy (usually one of those who had a long while ago got away of the teacher’s lesson) the victim had just the time it took to stand up straight in front of the whole class, to improvise a valid response (most of the times, an impossible task). Whatever the reply was, there were high probabilities the teacher ending her sentence with a typical: “Johnson, you look like not paying enough attention, please stay after class, then we will have a chance to go over these concepts I am trying to explain” which really meant: - “Bad luck boy, I am going to fry your bottom with my cane, so better get ready for it”- -- source link
