Back in high school, if you were currently studying Probablility in maths, have you ever been tempted to test your teachers with this scenario...
Get a group of your friends together in the classroom before the lesson starts, start playing cards, then when the teacher walks in and asks angrily 'What is the meaning of this?!' you answer back sweetly, 'Practical applications of probablility, sir!' (or Miss).
This was quite funny when I first saw this as a cartoon in my maths textbook, as a title page for the chapter, haha :D

It one of my statistics course in grad school the professor handed out decks of card to each of us when we were dealing with probability theories...I guess he had already had this little joke pulled on him before!

That was always our excuse for being late as we always played cards outside of our classroom while chain smoking during the breaks (in years 11 and 12 you can smoke at public school in part of Australia) and as we didn't have bells (or watches) we were always seen out the window when we should have been in class...

A woman goes into a restaurant in a small town in the South. She orders some chicken and starts to eat. Eating too fast, she starts to choke on a chicken bone. Buford and Buck, two country boys in the next booth, notice she is choking. So they get up and go over to help her. Buford drops his coveralls and bends over and then Buck starts licking his butt. The choking woman watches these two go at it and is so grossed out that she launches foward and throws up all over the place, dislodging the chicken bone from her throat. Buford pulls his overalls back up and says to Buck, "You're right,that 'hind-lick' maneuver works like a charm."

Tempted?...honey I did it. You should have seen the look on the teachers face too. Had to take the class again though.

Ah, a group of friends and I did that in Algebra II... and after a few minutes, he finally gave up and let us play.
