M: Hi, Ms. Jansen. Can we keep Romeo and Juliet in our dorm room?
W: What on Earth...!
M: They’re our pet hermit crabs!
W: Oh, poor crabs! Don’t you think they’d be happier on the beach?
M: Well, at the store they were squished into a little box. We thought they’d be happier with us. We let them out when we’re home. We give them baths too!
W: I see. Do you know what to feed them?
M: There’s free Internet information --- The Hermit Crab Association. They help crabs in captivity. And we will take them back to a beach someday.

W: Ha ha! Hey Trevor, check this out!
M: I’m trying to study here!
W: Oh, sorry. But this is really funny.
M: What is?
W: This article about strange inventions.
M: Like what?
W: Well, one guy invented a ladder for spiders. It’s a rubber strip you can put on the side of your bathtub.
M: Ha! Yeah? What else?
W: A portable seat. You carry it around your waist like a big cushion.
M: Ha! That’s really stupid.
W: Here’s the best one: A car license plate that tells if the driver’s a man or a woman.
M: I like that one. Then I could stay away from women drivers.
W: Yeah... Hey!
