Had to tell two teachers (was a joint essay for AP Literature & American History classes) that the crazed ex-girlfriend of my mom’s boyfriend set fire to our house. Didn’t burn all the way down (she threw an incendiary through the window which landed on a waterbed, the fire put itself out once it had burned through the blankets), but heat and smoke damage pretty much destroyed everything on the inside, and it was uninhabitable for a couple months.
The next morning I walk up to the lit teacher and say “I don’t have my homework, but I’ve got a _really_ good excuse”. She was notorious for not accepting excuses, but was very good-natured otherwise, so she laughed and asked to hear it. No problem, got a pass on that one.

i don’t understand the conclusion to this comic ?
2.5 million American children are homeless

That went right over the teacher’s head.
Damn Ithought the punchline was the teacher was going to just give him “work”.

Homework ruined school for me. There’s no reason to get homework
