Autoquote

I don't often quote myself, because it seems dumb. I'm just talking, and yeah I'm trying to be funny sometimes, but that's because interesting and amusing for me to construct something funny, not because I'm trying to be quotable. But I liked something I said to someone in class today, so I'll repeat it.

We has an a capella group at school today. We've had this before, and the one side effect of it is that the kids continue to sing for the rest of the day. I had one kid in a class right after the concert who continued to sing throughout the period, even while she was simplifying functions using trig identities. I like trig identities and though I have never found them particularly melodic, this person just kept on singing. I asked them to stop, and then again, and then again. And after the 3rd time, I said,

"When I asked you to please stop singing and you said 'OK,' what did you mean by that?"

And no, that didn't stop them either.
