I was sitting near a professor and an ESL(English as a Second Language) Student during my break time today. Apparently, the student had missed one of his classes. So, the student approached the professor because he wanted to make up for it- They had some sort of oral test in the lobby of my school. I couldn't help but overhear their conversation. I know it's mean for me to say, but it truly was difficult keeping my laughter in. The discussion went a little bit like this...
Professor: Give me a logical reason why a country should not start a nuclear war.
Student: uhh..
Professor: [rephrases]If there is a war, who suffers?
Student: There is pain.
Professor: Yes... everyone suffers right? So in the end, who gets killed?
Student: Japan.
