A funny story...well, I thought it was funny

I was in Greek Class today, and the teacher had returned our quizzes. His TA, however, had misunderstood the grading rubric, and as a result had wrongly marked off points on several people's exams. (Sadly I was not one of the lucky deserve getting points back). But you can imagine the uproar those unjustly lost points caused among my fellow type-A classmates. Because of the mess up, Dr. Penney circulated the room, giving credit where credit was due.

After several minutes of corrections, He asked if anyone needed anything else. There was a pause, and I raised my hand. Frustrated that his TA had messed up again, he asked in an exasperated tone, "Yes, Meredith?" To which I replied, "Oh, nothing, I just wanting some points while you were giving them out." To which the class all broke out laughing, and Dr. Penney rolled his eyes. I might not be the sharpest marble in the box, but I thought it was worth a shot.
