Dick & Jane Return
Jane insisted that she could not apply for a certain job because she didn’t understand measurements and conversions. Dick, attempting to help her by showing her that she was already familiar with the basics, asked, “Jane, how many inches are there in a yard?”
She replied, “I can’t do it, I just don’t know anything about that stuff!”
Dick said, “Very well,” and asked “How many FEET are there in a yard?”
Jane replied, “I told you already—I don’t know anything about this stuff!
Finally, Dick asked, “Jane, how many YARDS are in a yard?”
Then Jane said, “Look, I’m telling you for the last time! Leave me alone! I just don’t know anything about it!”
