The type of ignorance we're still struggling against

[LWolf]

11. Ouch.

A "little too real," to be sure.

I myself have used all those suggestions except for the mustache, and seeing them illustrated makes me angry about them all over again. Or embarrassed. Or ashamed of having lowered myself to do so. Or all three.

Yet, I'm also wondering what would happen if, at the right moment, I were to pull out my nose glasses, which have a mustache, put them on, and repeat myself. Would they get it? Would I have to explain it?

I have them in my classroom, along with a variety of other props I often use to make sure I've got students' attention, or end a session of hard thinking with a laugh, or for writing prompts, or props for improv demonstrations and performances.
