Funny / Go Eat Worms!

Go To

The book contains examples of:

  • While Todd and Danny are digging in the baseball field for worms...
    Danny: This one is as big as a snake. Did you ever think of collecting snakes?
    Todd: (quickly) No. No way.
    Danny: Why not?
    Danny: (not fooled at all) What's the real reason?
    Todd: (muttering) Because my parents won't let me.
  • Todd gets revenge on his sister by putting worms in her science expo project, a giant papier-mache bird named Christopher Robin, which ends up releasing many of the worms on the shocked judges. A livid Regina points out that Todd was the one who did it. How does he explain himself to get out of trouble?
    Todd: (shrugs innocently) I thought Christopher Robin looked hungry - so I fed him! (hurries back to his project)
  • The school janitor is tasked with collecting all of the worms off of the gymnasium floor and throwing them into the trash. The audience in the bleachers cheer him on as he does so, as if this was a crazy contest.
  • Todd made a worm house for the Science Expo, but Patrick far outperforms him by bringing in a worm skyscraper. A dumbfounded Todd can only splutter in rage and indignation.
    • It gets better. The judges, whom are all teachers from another school, go to their worm table and spend ten seconds looking at Todd's project without asking him a single question. They then spend five minutes staring at Patrick's project and asking him plenty of questions. All in front of Todd, who can barely contain the insane jealousy he's feeling.
    • "Can worms survive in a real skyscraper?" That was actually asked. By a teacher.
    • The fact that Todd totally deserves all of this is hysterical.
    • And despite all of this, even that project isn't enough to win the Science Expo, as the head of the Science Expo announces below:
  • "And the winner of the science fair is... Danny Fletcher and his Balloon Solar System!"
  • When the Science Expo is over, Todd is shoved from behind, and he turns around to find an enraged Regina, who's still livid towards him for his project prank on her. His initial response is, "Oh, you're still here?"
  • After finding worms in his bed, Todd brings them back to his worm farm in the basement. After he does this, with him thinking that they're out to get him as revenge for slicing one of them in half, he apologizes to them. No, really, he tells them that he's sorry that he cut one of them and he won't do it again if they stop messing with him. He's left feeling highly foolish afterwards.
    Todd: (thinking) Maybe I am totally nuts.
  • During the science fair, a crash is heard and a teacher randomly says "Was that the acid?!". It's never explained what was going on, which makes it funnier.
