Asians in South Carolina?

During my beginning poetry writing class this morning, we were reviewing Robert Pinsky's poem "Shirt". Line 2 to 4 go like:

"The nearly invisible stitches along the collar / Turned in a sweatshop by Koreans or Malaysians / Gossiping over tea and noodles on their break..."

and Lines 40-42 (toward the end of the poem) go like:

"George Herbert, your descendant is a Black / Lady in South Carolina, her name is Irma / And she inspected my shirt. Its color and fit..."

Anyway, the class is separated into groups, each group being assigned a question to answer about the poem. I forgot what the 2nd group's question was, but my classmate had said to the professor something like:

"I think the poem is trying to show a variety of ethnicities. In the beginning he's talking about Koreans and Malaysians, then toward the end he talks about the blacks in South Carolina. Because honestly, do you see any Koreans or Malaysians in South Carolina?"

The class begins to laugh, to which my professor later responds:

"I'm sure there are some there," with a hint of sarcasm.

My classmate also apologized to the class later saying, "I'm sorry if what I said offended anybody!"

Food.

This is a conversation between my roommate (Jessica) and her boyfriend (John).

Jessica: "Did you eat yet?"
John: "Did you cook me anything yet?"

A Fourth?

The teacher asked one of the students to name the Holy Trinity. Here was his response:

Kid: "The Holy Spirit, Jesus, Jesus' son..."

Walking around campus...

So I see these two guys walking around campus and one of them says:


Guy: I love living with myself!

The Plague

While going over the 3rd Commandment in class, the teacher reveals some interesting facts.

Teach: "All the Jews had to mark their doors with the blood of an innocent lamb or goat..."
Kid #1: "What if there weren't anymore lambs or goats?"
Teach: "TOUGH."
Me: O_o

Kid #2: "What does the Angel of Death look like?"
Teach: "I dunno, we've never met."
