The Most Excellent and Lamentable Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet, Told Entirely in Emoticons
Spike: At least give me Wesley's office since he's gone. Angel: He's not gone. He's on a leave of absence. Spike: Yeah, right. Boo-hoo. Thought he killed his bloody father. Try staking your mother when she's coming on to you! Harmony: Well…that explains a lot.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

These are some comments for my favourite prof ever:
She is slightly scatterbrained but funny. She really seems to love the material and it shows. She sort of makes the students want to love it as much as she does which is nice. (And that was only a so-so rating.)
By a long shot, the single most understanding prof I've ever come across. She cares about students more than any I've ever seen. That is her best quality--worth taking on that account.
Spring 2K5: What a wonderful professor! Found the syllabus was lacking - a little scattered, but overall she makes the course adventurous and exciting, and she is so knowledgeable that in the end you are really glad you took Chaucer, Beowulf, etc. from her!
Man, I miss her.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
I just looked up my professors from my current program. All the ones I like were graded badly because they were too hard or not clear. All the ones I hated were graded well because they were easy and helpful (I didn't find them helpful).
So, current teachers, please do not take what is being said on there as something you should pay much, if any, attention to.
Also, this confirms my belief that most of my co-students are lazy and expect things to be handed to them.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Oh, I've found the worst Christmas gift idea ever.
Sharper Image's worldwide exclusive "Alive" Chimpanzee is yours to give or get for under $150 — the first high-quality animatronics robot ever designed for home or office!
When you leave your chimp, use the controller to put him in "Guard" mode — ready for anything to trip his sensors: When someone enters the room (for example), your "Alive" Chimpanzee will begin whatever series of actions and vocalizations you programmed. Sounds like fun, yes?
Actually, it sounds like a horror movie waiting to happen.
Edit: Oh, my god, there's a video. I'm afraid to watch.

I was wondering how long you could hold out, Kat.
I hate the last 2 hours before I leave the office when I'm going to be gone. I start thinking of all the shit that can and will go wrong and even if I hate the job, it doesn't matter, I hate it done badly and and and...
Where's my list?!

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Looked up my mom. Only 1 rating, but I think it's accurate:
"A kind woman - great smile and energy - a wonderful drama teacher!"
Yay mom.

Others, just a transient sense of ennui.
Nearly spit Pepsi on the keyboard. Anyway, hot professors are a dime a dozen. The ones who prompt ennui? You remember those forever. You're making an impact!
Maybe not the impact you wanted to make...
I looked up my mother on that site once. Most of the comments were good (which is just as well, because I'm protective, and I really shouldn't have been reading them) except for one which said she used a fake English accent. The only thing I've been able to figure out is that they didn't understand about the Canterbury Tales and Beowulf.
