Context: I was talking about a piece of Spanish grammar that has no English equivalent and that I can't figure out with the Principal.
The Principal: It's just grammar. You'll figure it out. You're a smart girl.
Me (feeling warm and fuzzy): You think so?
The Principal: Oh yes. You're definitely smarter than a head of lettuce.
Me: . . . .
The Principal: And I know you could give a turnip a run for its money.
Me: . . . .
The Principal: I'm not talking about any average turnip here. I mean the big kind.
Me: How kind of you.
The Principal: Isn't it?
