Some guy teaching English in Japan sent us these writing assignments from his students with his "teacher comments." They're bascially an ESL update of that blase web joke from a few years ago where the teacher rips into a bunch of drawings by five-year-olds, the supposed humor being that you wouldn't swear at and harsh out children unless you were some sort of sociopathic monster. The only element missing from the equation in this case is a little thing called "the funny." What makes the joke falll still flatter is how stomach-turningly adorable the kids' letters actually are. We haven't seen someone fall this hard into the butt of their own joke since some high school kid asked our then-biking assistant editor "Hey can you give me a ride? No? Then how about a haircut?!"
