Spoiler
this is not meant to be followed as math calculations

Teacher: Now, as you all know, when ½ a = ½ b, “a” will equal “b”, and “2a” will equals “2b”.

Student A: Of course. ½ dead = ½ alive. Therefore, “dead” equals “alive”, and if you are 2 dead, you are 2 alive. It’s logical.

Teacher: I will ignore that stupid remark.

Student A: Yes please.

Teacher: Now, if a cone is five centimeters tall, and is filled to two centimeters tall with water, what is the surface area of the cone that is wet?

Student B: Is the cone paper or plastic?

Student C: (silently) Dumbass.

Teacher: Who said what?

Student A: Said what?

Teacher: Who said Dumbass?

Student B: You just said it!...

Hello, this is funny. I enjoyed reading it. This can be a joke and write more. You have to believe that you can write because you can.


Good luck and keep writing,

Alicia.

How can it be a joke and write more at the same time?

Lol, very funny, Z! It ends rather abruptly though, as Kikialicia pointed out. Perhaps you could think up some more funny things and add them on?
Also, the bit about the cone being wet doesn't make much sense. Perhaps the teacher should say: "Now, if a cone is five centimeters tall, and is filled to the two centimeter mark with water, what is the surface area of the cone?" if that works.

Jents, the cone question was a question in my math book, it is not wrong, you just have to use ratio to solve it.
