The funniest three things I ever heard today:
So, I have a project in reading class where I have to pick four quotes in Night that have to do with one of the symbols in the book and explain each quote. I picked fire as the symbol, and had asked![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
pathvain_aelien if she could help me with it, and she agreed, but then she said she doesn't remember any instances of fire in Night. Then this happened:
ME: (something about the part where Mrs. Schächter says, "Fire! I see a fire! I see a fire!")
PATHVAIN_AELIEN: Wait, what?
ME: You know, that woman on the bus who--
PATHVAIN_AELIEN: Did you just call her Trogdor?
Later on, when pathvain_aelien was getting something:
PATHVAIN_AELIEN'S BOYFRIEND: Come on, Trogdor!
Even later, when we were talking about the project again:
PATHVAIN_AELIEN'S BOYFRIEND: Is Trogdor a symbol?
Sure, the Trogdor comes in the night, but not the one by Elie Wiesel.

Date: Wed, Aug. 21st, 2013 18:28 (UTC)Um, what about the fact that I made a joke, at all, about a very serious novel (even if it's less related to the novel itself and more to Mrs. Schächter's name being misheard as Trogdor)?
It turns out no one's actually offended by this yet, yes, but that's why I was worried about this...
