They do. They totally 800% do.
Didn’t Romeo kill Juliet’s cousin or something? Or is it the other way around?
He did, and that’s the reason he got exiled

Today in AP English, we were reading this story in very old fashioned English, and these two boys were reading the parts of a guy and his friend, and the guy reads something like “O’ friend whose body I love more than mine own” and the teacher just goes “yo TMI, you guys get physical in your spare time not in this class” and the entire class just literally lost it laughing
That reminds me of that one time I was in a christian youth group and a friend had to read “You have been very pleasant to me. Your love to me was more wonderful than the love of women” (from what I consider the gayest story in the bible)
For this story, A Separate Peace, in semester 1, our mastery assessment was to decide who was responsible for Finny’s death.. One girl blamed everyone in the story. XD
It seems that in every single story we’ve read, someone dies :0 it happened in TKAM too
this guy in the story was trying to test his three friends, and he killed a pig and put it in a bag, and carried it to the houses of each of his three friends and told each one “I accidentally killed a man, will you help me hide the body so I amn’t hung?” and the friend whose body he loved more than his own pretty much said “nope, sorry, you killed him, you be damned, but I can give you two sheets of cloth with which they can cover your dead body”, the second friend who he loved as much as himself said “nope, but I’ll attend when they hang you and then find a new friend” and the third friend who he didn’t like as much as the other two or himself said “I will not hide the body, but I will take it from you so they hang me instead of you” and the man was so wracked with guilt for not loving the one friend who was the only one to give up everything for him in a time of need that he confessed that he had once not loved that friend and kissed him and begged for forgiveness, and the guy reading that guy was like “wait, didn’t I like the first friend’s body like five minutes ago and now I’m kissing another guy?”

So, in science class this year we get to raise chickens.
What science class is that!? Can you name them?
Life science. Yeah, already named one of my chicks Lucky. (It is a girl till further notice.)
My science teacher got my class 30 eggs, and 17 have hatched. Luckily, both of mine hatched.
So I have spent the past two lunch periods holding my chicks and singing to them and letting them perch on my finger.

So, don’t know if anyone’s heard this joke.
A woman is pregnant. She’s very worried about the health of her children, as she has a condition that makes her prone to faints or episodes, even staying comatose for up to a full week without warning. She calls on her parents, but unfortunately they’re too old to be there, and doing so would be more of a burden. Even though she says they’d never be a burden, and she needs all the help she can get, the politely refuse.
So, she goes to her sister, and asks again. Unfortunately, Her sister is away, busy with a brand new job, and to up and leave like that would risk her losing the career of a lifetime. The woman understands, and wished her sister well, and the sister agrees to visit as soon as she is able.
With no other option, the woman if forced to call upon her brother. A huge prankster and a known thief, the two have never really gotten on. He agrees, in exchange for the wifi password and a bed that isn’t stained, and she begrudgingly agrees. For the next few weeks, all is well, and the woman is surprised to find her brother being very nice and caring. He cooks the tea, makes the beds, reads aloud to help her sleep, and the two reconnect as the days roll on. By the end, the woman apologises, having completely misjudged her brother and his cruel jokes and jests.
The woman is looking at a name book, and circling ones she liked, but she was only half way when it hits. Suddenly, she’s carted away to the hospital, and the brother is called quickly. She wakes up, a week or so later, and the doctor greets her warmly. “My babies, are they okay?”
The doctor smiles. “All is well, the birth was successful, and everything is in order. You’re the proud mother of twins. A boy and a girl.” He pauses. “We did have your brother name the children for you. I hope you don’t mind, but we needed the paperwork.”
At first, the woman dreads the news, but then she remembers how she had misjudged his character. “No, that’s okay. I trust he chose some good names.”
The doctor shrugs. “Well, he said he saw the name you circled in the name book. He says you planned to name the girl after your grandmother, “Deni”?”
she nods, and lets out a small breath of relief. “Denice, yes, I had mentioned calling her that.” With her faith renewed for a second time, she calmly asked. “That’s good. And what did he call the boy.”
The Doctor shrugs.
“Denephew.”
