My US history students are just starting to discover how much information is out there on their research paper topics. When I tell them “it’s like drinking from a firehose,” I get a wide variety of reactions:
“You mean because firehoses are hard to find?” (girl)
“That’s hilarious! Did you make that up? You’re funny.” (guy) “No.” (me) “Oh.” (him)
“That would be sick. The back of my head would get blown right off, and there would be brains all over the place.” (guy)
“Frankly, I’m not THAT thirsty.” (girl)
