The first grade teacher was starting a new
lesson on multi-syllable words. She thought
it would be a good idea to ask a few of the
children examples of words with more than
one syllable.

"Jane, Do you know any multi-syllable
words?"

"After some thought Jane proudly replied
with Monday."

"Great Jane. That has two syllables,
Mon......day"

"Does anyone know another word."

"I do! I do!" replied Johnny.

Knowing Johnny's more mature sense of
humor she picks Mike instead.

"OK Mike, what is your word."

"Saturday." says Mike.

"Great, that has three syllables..."

Not wanting to be outdone Johnny says,
"I know a four syllable word. Pick me!
Pick me!"

Not thinking he can do any harm with a
word that large the teacher reluctantly
says, "O.K. Johnny what is your four
syllable word?"

Johnny proudly says, "Mas...tur...ba...tion."

Shocked, the teacher, trying to retain her
composure says, "Wow, Johnny. Four
syllables! That's certainly is a mouthful."

"No Ma'am, you're thinking of 'blowjob',
but that's only two syllables!"
