It’s time
again for Succinctly Yours, a micro meme assigned by the delightful Grandma of
Grandma’s Goulash. Each week, Grandma posts a photo so that we might do our
homework and compose a story of 140 words or 140 characters or fewer to go with
it. The bonus word this week was “cheese.”
Cheese
Preparatory Academy closed down after a student was removed for being lactose
intolerant. The board overturned the dismissal as intolerance of
intolerance. 140
“I
agree with the cheese board,” superintendent Colby Romano was quoted as saying.
“We seek to embrace all dairy-digesting abilities here at Cheese Prep.” 132
The
student, mild Brie Gruyere, was not bitter. “I plan to transfer because I can
reach for the sky at Pizza Pie High,” she said, “but Cheese will always be tops.”
133
Me, to high school French class: Oh my
gosh, quit complaining!
Girl: We’re teenagers. It’s all that we
do.
Boy: It’s hormonal! We can’t help it, am
I right?

ReplyDeleteThese are a great sequence Tammy!!! I am afraid I am skipping again this week - if the prompt doesn't turn up in that one hour window I have on Sundays, the week simply slips... not by. Just slips... 8~0
YAM xx
I'm impressed that you're so efficient. I have to take several looks or my brain simply slips!
DeleteHeh, heh. I wonder if the Cheese Prep Academy also had trouble waiting for their students to mature, like the Cheez-It folks.
ReplyDeleteIf so, I feel sorry for them. I had several of those immature Cheez-Its the last week of school. Ack.
DeleteMy vote is for number 2. "intolerance of intolerance"--too funny!

Thanks, Pat!
DeleteI love the cheesy puns in all of them (I bow to your brilliance!), but the second is my favorite. The "intolerance of intolerance" got me, too, and it is so apropos these days!
ReplyDeleteHee hee! Loved your use of "cheesy puns" as a cheesy pun! I'm bowing back over here.
DeleteThere is never a cheesy...er, dull moment on your blog, Tammy. Love them all, of course. I agree that the "intolerance of intolerance" line is priceless -- and so appropriate these days -- but I think I like #4 best. Mild Brie stole my heart!
ReplyDeleteOh, I'm glad mild Brie wasn't completely overlooked! Thanks, Theresa!
DeleteTammy--And no lines about "cutting the cheese"? You took a higher road. ;)
ReplyDeleteI loved Brie. I wonder if she'll get crusty and dry when she gets older or gets too hot?
You'd think I would have thought of that, huh?
DeleteDon't tell, but I heard poor Brie went bad when she got old. Life stinks sometimes.
What a fine collection of cheesy gems! I loved them all, but Colby Romano topped it off for me.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you approve of my extra-cheesy goulash this week. Great photo as always!
