I had a chemistry teacher who looked so exactly like a garden gnome I couldn't even look at her. Her nose would magically wiggle left and right while she talked too, and she would make faces sometimes to be fun, and each and every time throughout the year I would laugh until I cried. I failed both exams because it was impossible to pay attention. She hated me.

I'm always left with the question of why are their lawn gnomes? are they just there to cause me misery when I run over one with a mower? or do they hold a deep symbolic meaning to their owners?
