on very rough drafts

mom: you wouldn't believe his paragraph even if you read it. it was a cabbage! i gave them plenty of time to work in the library. i said, "if you want to show me your work and get some feedback before your final submission, you can." and still - a boot!

me: wait, is it a boot or a cabbage?

mom: he is a boot; his paragraph is a cabbage.
