XENOPHOBIA : REASONABLE PRECAUTION :: DR. ABUTOU MUGABE : ?
I feel kinda bad for any poor Nigerians just trying to advance their education... but I also feel that it's kind of bleakly hilarious.
Interpreting English Literature, Standard Test:
O Rose, thou art sick.
The invisible worm,
That flies in the night
In the howling storm:
Has found out thy bed
Of crimson joy:
And his dark secret love
Does thy life destroy.
Interpreting English Literature, Nigerian Version:

BWAHHAHAHAHAAAA...you rock, Jul, in case I hadn't mentioned it recently. GRE's, huh? Fun stuff. I found them to be pretty daggone easy compared to the SATs, but what do I know. If you get less than 90% on the analogies, I'll eat my hat.
Oh, how I love you.
I find things funny all the time, but never laugh audibly- because, really, what good is laughing if there is no one with whom to laugh? Anyway, this one actually did it for me: Mr Invisible Worm that Flies In the Night? If I ever mass produce something- a book, a movie, a song- it'll be called just that, even if it has nothing to do with content, because it rocks that hard.
