We were working on a math activity in summer school yesterday, when Susie said, “Mrs. Smythe, would you PLEASE tell Sam that it doesn’t matter HOW tall his pencil is? He keeps saying his pencil is the tallest.”
George, “Yeah. It doesn’t matter whose pencil is the tallest, as long as it’s sharpened.”
Ain’t that the truth.

Seems like all boys are in a competition, doesn't it?
OMG!!! FIRST!!
hahahaha awesome.
I have many replies going through my head right now. Not one is appropriate.
Now that is a classic!
I am laughing so hard right now I cannot formulate an answer. And now I have a permanent visual of classroom pencil sharpeners that will forever stay in my pencil brain.
Thanks a LOT!
George is one smart cookie! Times like that you think he'll be the next Bill Gates and then ...
Classic! You really need to make a book filled with these adorable schoolroom anecdotes!
What happened to Biros and felt pens? Well, come to think of it, you don't have to keep replacing lead pencils...
I just love a good metaphor! Kids are full of them and they don't even know it.
Perfect comeback! I'll be you get those all the time! I'm laughing so hard my big belly is shaking!!!
So it isn't how sharp your pen is but how you draw with it ?
LOL!! Have you seen the Nashville Weather Penis...
Awesome! I said something that could have been simmilar the other day coming home from a field trip but now of course I can't remember what it was! Darn old age
Years from now they will just shift from tallest to longest, and there you go.
George sounds like the sharpest pencil in the drawer!
DI
George has a point :)
They start comparing them at a really early age don't they?
OMFG!! I HATE that! My kids argue about that on a daily basis, usually several times a day. It makes me NUTS!!!
When they aren't fighting over the tallest pencil, they're fighting over which eraser is the biggest! Freakin' kids!!!
OMG! I love that!
I'm telling you - that George is *going* places!
LOL! Yeah, I would rather be sharp than tall...
I get the feeling that Sam is going to grow up telling girls that this (holding thumb and forefinger a 1/2 inch apart) is 6 inches. : P
Yeah OK but, who's is the sharpest? Ha - gottya!
I KNEW IT! Boys really do learn that crap in kindergarten!
Lol! Sam and my daughter are so related. Sometimes I wish I could just see how she is in her class because she hates losing, even to non-contests such as the tallest pencil.
LOVE George!
I love a tall pencil.
you really gotta wonder where they come up with this stuff :) Oh, just think of the fun these kids will have when they GET innuendos
Too cute :) I love listening to kids conversations!
Hee! That guy has it right.
adorable! Of course, then they get into the battle of whose pencil is the sharpest.

This is when we teachers sit back and snicker!
Hee Hee! Reminds me of how I have always pronounced both pin and pen the same way. At dinner when I was a teen I asked for a "pen" but it sounded, of course like "pin." My family asked for clarification and I said, dramatically, I need a P-E-N-I-S. Seemed funny at the time.
I had a class one year that thought having the shortest pencil was the best! Lots of little fingers were sacrificed and I had to pry a lot of pencil stubs out of the sharpener!
Wow, it starts so early! Who knew.
