"If there are any idiots in the room, will they please stand up" said the sarcastic teacher. After a long silence, one freshman rose to his feet. "Now then mister, why do you consider yourself an idiot?" enquired the teacher with a sneer. "Well, actually I don't," said the student, "but I hate to see you standing up there all by yourself." Yet, "if you can't do, teach... if you can't teach...teach gym..." does not strike me as funny or useful. probably because I had too many teachers who couldn't do or teach, including a gym teacher who should have been in prison.
