Beaker No!/Beaker Yes! [Friday 1/19, 3rd Period]

Please pay no attention to the meeping from the snare trap on the ceiling. Beaker had tried to come in like a wrecking ball but noooooo, Sam chose to be un-fun!

How dare the narrative! Sam chose to be dignified and professional!

“Today, students,” Sam began, ignoring the meeps for now, “we shall focus on a very important facet of American Life. Today you shall learn about taxes!”

Don't everyone cheer at once, now.

“I shall be lecturing you alone as my unfortunate colleague is otherwise engaged due to his choice to try and set fire to this stack of tax forms.”

You know, trapped in a trap on the ceiling. That sort of otherwise engaged.

“Your W-2 form is an important item! Once received from your employer you must keep track of it! Otherwise how will you file your taxes? What if you get…” Sam dropped his voice and looked around the room “audited?”

Was the trap on the ceiling swinging? Was Sia’s Chandelier starting to play faintly?

“Now, some of you may never have filed income taxes before. Shame on you! Lucky for you I have prepared a very thorough presentation on the basics of tax law. It should take nearly the remainder of the semester to cover but of course we shall be finished with ample time to file before Tax Day!”

Settle in for a very boring PowerPoint presentation, kids! Very boring!

…was that the sound of a chainsaw? Beaker, no.

Gonzo was definitely watching Beaker. Gonzo was also pulling out his trumpet so he could play the backing track for "Chandelier" for Beaker.

What? Clearly this class was ART! and he was here to contribute!
