A memory I have

that I wish were true... but I know is false, since the event never happened.

Anyways, here is what happened:

Picture an elementary school. Picture out of control kids. Picture the teacher leaving for a minute. Picture these kids just having read a story about spaceships. Picture these kids, as kids do, imitating the noise of a spaceship launching off.

Anyways, this was the scene. And everyone in the class took their turns making these spaceship noises, all of them spewing a fair share of spit out of their mouths. But none of them could quite replicate the noise of a spaceship launching off. Frankly, all of them just sounded like people making noises with their mouths--nowhere near an authentic spaceship launching.

And then someone told the kid that never talks to give it a go. "Let's hear it, Bobby!"

And this Bobby, it's as if a demon possesses him: his face contorts and turns weird colors, and then he pipes out his noises.

....and they sound exactly like a spaceship launching off.

PPPPPPPPRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRPRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGCCCCKEKCKCKCKCCPSPSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSKKKKKKKKKKKRRRRRRRRRRSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHKKKKKKKRRSHKSHKRRRSHKSHRSKSSSHKK
GGGGGGGGGGGGGCCCCKEKCKCKCKCCPSPSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSKKKKKKKK
KKKRRRRRRRRRRSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHKKKKKKKRRSHKSHKRRRSHKSHRSKSSSHKK

And the other children are left to wonder: What the hell does this guy do in his free time? Or does this shit come naturally?


So ends my fake memory.
