so geography isnt my strong point...

Modern History Teacher*: So girls, FORMOSA. That was what they used to call Taiwan. Isn't that interesting?
Students: yes
MHT: so moving on...
a little while later when fact sheets were being read, the word Formosa appeared again.
MHT: Formosa...what did that mean again girls?
(everyone is thinking umming and ahhing, basically thinking really hard.)
One particular Student: Isn't it a band?

*lovely woman by the way and definitely one of my favourite teachers ever, just not so lucky.
