The Topic: my sister's homework.

Praseodymium

She had to do these analogies. So my question to you is: how do you fill in the blanks?

Oh that one's easy. "Bone" and "Not Bone."

Tom Servo

No, that's not right. It's "Head" and "Guts."

Crow T. Robot

No, look. The skull is a bone and the liver is not a bone.

Tom Servo

Maybe it has to do with what they symbolize. The skull symbolizes death. As in skull and crossbones. And the liver, well, it metabolizes alcohol, so it represents booze.

Crow T. Robot

So death and booze?

Tom Servo

Maybe the teacher was sending them one of those "Don't Drink and Drive" messages that are so popular around the holidays.

Yet again, another instance of propaganda in the school system. A sad sad story.

Next they'll be sending home algebra problems telling them to use a condom.
