Buckwheat and Darla were in school, and the teacher asked Darla, "How do you spell 'dumb'?"
Darla said, "D-u-m-b, dumb."
The teacher said, "Very good. Now use it in a sentence."
The girl said, "Buckwheat is dumb."
Now spell "stupid."
Darla said, "S-t-u-p-i-d, stupid."
The teacher said, "Very good. Now use it in a sentence."
Darla said, "Buckwheat is stupid."
Then the teacher called on Buckwheat and said, "Buckwheat, spell 'dictate.'"
Buckwheat stood up and said, "D-i-c-t-a-t-e, dictate."
The teacher replied, "Very good. Now use it in a sentence."
"I may be dumb, and I may be stupid, but Darla says my dictate good."
