Josel Yufa: The Man Who Ate His Own Homework




It was a dark and stormy night, and Josel Yufa was sitting alone in his room, staring at his homework. He had been working on it for hours, and he was starting to get desperate. He knew that if he didn't finish it, he would fail his math class, and he didn't want to disappoint his parents or the teacher.

Suddenly, an idea struck him. I'll eat it! he thought. That way, I'll never have to finish it!

And so, Josel Yufa did what any desperate student would do: he ate his homework. He ate the whole thing, down to the last crumb. When he was finished, he felt a sense of relief. He had finally finished his homework, and he didn't have to worry about failing math class anymore.

The next day, Josel went to school as usual. He walked into his math class and sat down at his desk. The teacher started the class by asking the students to turn in their homework. Josel's heart sank. He had eaten his homework, so he didn't have anything to turn in.

The teacher looked around the class, and she noticed that Josel didn't have his homework. She walked over to his desk and asked him where it was.

"I ate it," Josel said.

The teacher was shocked. "You ate your homework?" she asked.

"Yes," Josel said. "I was so desperate to finish it that I ate it."

The teacher didn't know what to say. She had never heard of a student eating their homework before. She decided to let Josel off the hook, but she warned him that he couldn't eat his homework again.

Josel was relieved that he didn't get in trouble for eating his homework. He learned his lesson, and he never ate his homework again.
