Am I really being cursed or what?

Like all other days... Reading the SMB... Until I came to this:

This year, Hwa Chong Institution (High School) is represented by the band, "I Crushed A Snail On Wednesday". The band is fronted by helmsman Timothy Iype Thomas from 4B.

What! Did you curse me? That day after 3rd Language, I stepped on a snail! You cursed me you *toot*! Curses work? There is a chance though. Like Potato who cursed Qiken for the English exam. By the way, why don't they work when I curse others?
