^Awesome comeback there!
Now on to embarrassing moments...
In my Junior year of high school, I was taking an AP English Language course and we had seminars on a weekly basis to discuss what we read in what we called our "Bibles" (Seriously, the book was huge and looked a lot like a bible
)
One of the readings, which I fail to remember at the moment, was a Puritan work from the 18th century that described a house fire the author went through, but because of her good faith, she was comforted by the fact that she would always have her true home in heaven.
Our teacher was trying to get us to realize this point and I knew it, but I just could not describe it for some reason. Taking a chance I decided to try and and explain it anyway. What I tried to say was that her faith assured her happiness in the next life, but what instead came out as I desperately sought the words to explain this was:
"Her house went to heaven!"
....
Almost as soon as I said that I wanted to immediately take that back. The teacher noticed, but so did my friend who was able to save my butt there and come up with a better response. Thankfully the teacher said nothing of it and because it was English, almost no one was paying attention. Good thing for me, but now I wonder why no one pays attention in English?
