Reminds me of me trying to explain the difference between can I and may I when I was a teacher.

I suspect the first embodiment of the Thesaurus monster was in "Bored of the Rings", the humour (or should that be humor) will appeal to some.

My son is on the autistic spectrum.

As a primary school pupil, [with support], his tendency to be literal in the extreme taught his class teacher a good lesson [so she later recounted]
An example being, he would be sat away from the others in a corner with his support, basically doing his own thing.....
The class teacher would ask him if he'd like to come over & join the others for a story?
He would reply, 'no thank you!'

Now, some may have found this response to be bordering on 'bad behaviour'....but his teacher discovered that, if she simply told him to 'come & sit over here with the others,' he would do so quite obediently.
