Hi starwar1402

Would you like to tell us where you got these unbelievably "interesting" fill-in-the-blank questions?

I certainly hope they were not created by your English teacher or found in a book. If they were, then my advice to you is to find yourself a better teacher or a better book immediately!

I can only assume this post is a joke.

Amy

Edit:
The typo has been eliminated.

Hi starwar1402

You've tried to post additional JOKE sentences twice now. Don't you think you've already posted enough bad sentences here in this thread?

Have you noticed that your two additional threads have both been deleted? Your additional posts weren't deleted by me, but I can certainly understand why they were deleted. If you chose to delete them yourself, I'd say that was a wise decision.

Would you like to share your opinion with us? Which of your sentences do you find the most laughable and why? Please explain in detail.
Do you think any of your sentences are OK? If yes, which one?
