Lost in translation: Moose's "D-uh".
Probably something to be learned by everyone watching stories about younger versions of themselves on television. But the Quebec school has everyone doing that "What I did during my Summer Vacation" assignment -- I don't remember ever having that one.
I remember round about fourth or fifth grade, a school assembly, I think designed to implant some idea of "think about the future a little, kids", someone talking about attending college, and she takes questions from the audience. So one of my classmates raises her hand, and she asks the very pertinent question "Are you allowed to pass notes in college?" A sign of the different universes of concerns everyone inhabited.
