A St. Patty's Day Celebration -- A random assortment of quotes

The first one is in honor of this holiday:
Co-worker: "I have green on even when I'm naked."
 
Question: Did Punxsutawney Phil see his shadow?
Student: Yes. (As she hands in her paper, she tells me, “He always does.”)
(Not this year…That’s why you’ve got to watch the news, kids. It changes every day…)

Question: Did our college’s women’s basketball team win or lose Saturday’s game?
Student: Yes.

Student, discussing whether or not a professor was gay: “Maybe he likes the rainbow, but he stays away from the rainbow.”

“I love your hair! It looks like a caramel waterfall.”

Student: “It’s okay if I miss a Spanish lecture. I’ll just watch ‘Dora the Explorer’ before the next class and catch up.”

Same student: “I order in Spanish at the Mexican restaurants. Numero uno, por favor. Uno margarita. Adios, amigos.”

Me: “I gotta say, this paper was really impressive.”
Student: “Really?”
Me: “Yeah. Impressively bad.”

Student: “Well, engineering is similar to information technology, right? They both work at a computer.”
Me: “So do you, but that doesn’t make you an engineer.”

“So if I walk into the office and scream, ‘Go to Hades,’ you think that would be burning a bridge?”

“Are you having dinner with me?”
“Yes.”
“Great!  I haven't decided what we're having yet, but you'll like it. Or at least pretend you do.”

Student 1: “What is Joe Biden the Speaker of?”
Student 2: “House of Representatives?”
Student 1: “No, it’s the other one.”
Student 2: “What other one?”
(proceeds to give the following answers as to what “the other one” is.)
“Judicial.”
“Congress.”

Happy St. Patrick's Day to all!!

I love your quote posts. How are you surrounded by so many crazy people? Oh, that's right, you're a college professor.

Green when naked? EW. All I can think of is fungus. :)

i thought i'd catch jay and pinch him when he was just in his boxers, but unfortunately the writing across the rear was in green lettering.
