The Best Medicine: Humor - Period 6 in the Danger Room - Final Class

[dr-jwilsonmd.livejournal.com]

At some point in the night Wilson's humor students had received handwavey instructions to meet him down in the Danger Room for their final.

When they had all congregated Wilson carefully worked through the program he had handwavilly worked up and been shown how to present in the room.

"All right guys. It's time for your final. What I have in store for you today is much like your midterm only new and improved. I have programed in audiences for each of you, assigned randomly. You will be graded on how well you read your audience and the types of humor you choose to use to make them laugh and interact with you. So, if you all will take your seats, we'll get started."

[ooc: OCDs for each student will be coming are up! Handwavey is of course understood and fine but thought I am being dragged kicking and screaming to a corporate luncheon from 11:30-2:00 I will otherwise be around to laugh or jeer as need be. :)]

More rough laughter spilled through out the 'tavern' and Wilson covered his mouth with his hand to try to stem his own chuckles.

Ahyep, Pippi had definitely gotten the right read on her audience and was drawing them right along with her.

"Down below... In his cabin that is."

*wink wink*

"Jack heard the lookout's warning. 'Girls!' he said to Anne and Mary, 'Get me red shirt from the sea chest and a weetiny bit o' loose gun powder!' Anne got the shirt and ask Jack why he wanted it. 'Ah, in case I'm wounded ya see, if I'm bleeding it'll blend in with me shirt. That way, our men won't see I'm wounded and they won't get discouraged!' And Mary brought the powder, which Jack mixed with some water and smeared it on his face, giving himself a light coat of grime. Mary asked him why he did that, and Jack said, 'If I'm very badly wounded, my face will go pale, and the men will be discouraged. But with this bit 'o grime on me face, they won't be able to tell, and so they won't lose heart!'"

Pippi paused to chug down another flaggon

Oh yes, indeed did Pippi have the crowd at her beck and call, the normally noisy tavern quiet as a graveyard as the sailors waited for her to continue.

Even Stumpy and One-eye weren't fighting for once...which some might mark as a sign that Hell had overtaken Heaven.

"So up the stairs they went, brandishing their cutlasses and pistols, until that is, they got up to the deck, and saw that all the Governors of all the Bahamas had each sent a ship out to find Jack's ship, The Revenge, and at just that moment, the lot of them were baring down on 'em from all sides.

So Jack turns to the girls and says..."

Pippi stooped a little, taking on the character of Jack, and said in a rather convincing male voice,

"Bring me my brown pants."

....

The Tavern exploded in gauffs of laughter and riotious slapping of hands against tables and given the number of flagons that came up towards Pippi...-which Wilson quickly made sure were JUST water- they sailors were very well pleased indeed!

Pippi is totally disappointed at the water...

Oh well, she had a bottle of rum in her room
