Making Fun of Pots: a true story

Yesterday I spent the day out with friends.  First we went to the store for school supplies, then we went to the food court for a while.  While there we talked about Hetalia (an anime show that personifies countries) and we began talking about an incident in school earlier this year.

For one of our projects we had to turn an Edgar Allen Poe story into a small skit.  My friend and her group got the Masque of the Red Death.  For those of you who do not know what this is, the Masque of the Red Death is a story about a sickness.  It ravages the kingdom so the ever so wonderful Prince hides in his castle with all other Nobilities.  Then while all the peasants die the rich people are safe.  There is a masquerade and a clock that keeps scaring everyone.  For the sound of the clock. one of my friends brought in the pot.  In the end the personified red death kills everybody.

After the skit was done she kept forgetting to bring the pot home.  And one day her mom wanted to make soup, but didn't have the pot to make it with.  So she went in the next day and wrote in big red letters on the board,"BRING POT HOME".  And because we are all inappropriate middle schoolers, my other friend and I found it extremely funny when we heard this story.  We laughed for a straight half hour asking if the soup was good and if she used her "pot" in it.  And even after that we wouldn't let it go.  We kept bursting out in random laughter, just saying pot, soup, or scones.  For those of you who don't watch Hetalia, we were making fun of personified Britain (Iggy) making"special scones" using my friends "pot".  And that is how we spent an hour and a half making fun of pots.

(NOTE: I have no idea how to make scones, and I am unsure if you use a pot to make them.)
