Grade 10 English on Stereotypes

[Kiwi Phil]

My boy came home today telling me his English lesson is about stereotypes, and showed me a few pages of what they are expected to know and understand.
His Master then told them this:

Heaven is where:
the police are British
the cooks are French
the Mechanics are German
the lovers are Italian
and it is all organised by the Swiss

Hell is where:
the police are German
the cooks are English
the mechanics are French
the lovers are Swiss
and it is all organised by the Italians.

I later asked him to explain each one as he saw it, and sure enough, the word stereotype definitely applies....at 15 he is as bad as the rest of us.

Cheers
Phillip

Those fit very well, Phil.

Oh, also:

In Heaven defense is run by the Israelis.

In Hell it is done by the French.
