tara-1, Stress Management professor-0

hee.

Class tonight; I missed last week's because I had to study for my Human Biology exam.

The professor comes in and immediately glares at me from over his glasses. I sit there, looking innocent. This is a skill I am highly accomplished at.

He starts pointing his finger at me. "You. You. You."

"Me? What?"

"I went home from class that night and asked my wife. About that word."

"I went home from class that night and checked my dictionary!"

"You were right."

"I know. I told you."

He flipped me the bird and I cracked up laughing. Later on in the class, he called me a smartass.

I'm still giggling.

I'm curious, what was the word?

We argued in the last class I attended about the word "catharsis". I wrote an entry about it here.

Hey, at least he was cool enough to own up to it.

Yeah - I had an AP English teacher once who insisted "Gloucester" was pronounced "Glue-caster." I finally got sick of her and the class pronouncing it incorrectly and told her it was "GLOSS-ter". She tried to make me look like an idiot and I marched up and looked it up in the dictionary, shoved it in her face and said "Look, see? GLOSS-ter. It's also a kind of cheese." She sent me to the office and I got suspended.

That's better than the "sontometers" I keep hearing about in math class.
