Ralph Wiggum would approve
200-level fiction survey class, circa 9:30AM, after students have spent 10 minutes asking questions about assignments/due dates/how the syllabus works --
Me: You know, according to some psychological studies, you guys ask me all of these questions because you want me to be your mom.
30 minutes later --
Student: Do we have to read the Allende story for Monday, Mommy?
He was joking, of course, much unlike Ralph Wiggum. ;)

Well, at least he was joking when he called you Mommy. Better than the kid who ate his glue stick.
