I don't want to miss this joke. Help!
Hi,
Would you explain what the point of the underlined part is ?
No one else had been called, so why me? I ran down a list of recent crimes, looking for a conviction that might stick. Setting fire to a reportedly flameproof Halloween costume, stealing a set of barbecue tongs from an unguarded patio, altering the word hit on a list of rules posted on the gymnasium door; never did it occur to me that I might be innocent.
Thank you,
M

Thank you for the reply.
Where did the "s" come from? and also if possible, would you provide, or make up, one rule that is likely to be posted on a gym door, which uses "hit"?
Thank you in advance,

Please do not hit the tennis ***** onto the roof of the gymnasium. If you are caught doing so, you will spend your lunch times cleaning out the principal's ears.
When a delinquent sees the word 'hit,' he, or very rarely she, will add an 's' to the beginning of the word, to form a vulgar word, known as s***.
