Computers Quote by John Pearson
““The moral of the story, of course, is that if you cuss out an adult, you have to stay in during computer class and answer questions out of the science book. Just like with the “shout the fouk up” incident, I had Marvin write down what he had said and why. Here is Marvin’s scribbling: I said this helo assohle . I don’t know what I was thinking. It just poped out my moth. And really, don’t you hate it when things just pope out your moth?””
