MR TICK-TACK
The new English teacher has been re-born through
The mouth of the school children, and re-named.
His new name is Mr Tick-Tack. Reasons
1. He tickles the bridge of his nose a lot.
2. He tackles the students for being sapient and for being vapid.
A week after Mr Tick-Tack resumes, he resigns. Reasons
1. He tells a girl in my class to come and tickle his
Stick-like manhood with the tip of her tongue.
2. He tackles the school principal for lampooning him
Over his preposterous exploit.
