Cultural Shock!

Teacher asks a student, "Which brings up the use of Adverbs?"
Student: "WHOA! Now you are really towing the line of offensive language!!"
Teacher: Sighs. "And how are adverbs offensive, Dahne?"
Student: "Cuz verbs describe action and actions can be offensive, so adverbs make them even more offensive!"
Teacher: "Um not all actions are offensive!"
Student: " Well, we don't take chances in my culture, so we ban everything!"
Teacher: "So......in your culture you folks prefer stay illiterate?"
Student: "UH..OH.....sounds like someone's cultural bias is showing!"
