Spike's Bitches 38: Well, This Is Just...Neat.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
He wanted to rile people up
great. Your class has a troll.
He's a cave troll.
He's an asshole.
Oh sj, how scary!

I'm sorry you're dealing with an ignorant prof and troll, vw.

Asstroll!

Laura, come to DC in the winter! We go nuts as though we should be in Florida when the first flake hits the ground. Actually, before - with the first hint that there will be snow, people rush to the stores and stock up as though they won't be able to get more supplies until spring thaw (two weeks later).
And Sean, speaking for myself, I don't mind the detailed bulletins on your getting well - just don't go into that much detail on being sick, 'kay?
The prof isn't really ignorant. She just phrased things really badly. And every time she tried to fix it, it just got worse. I actually really like this prof, which is why I will be completely honest and lengthy in my reflection on today's class.
Oh, that's too bad. Makes it even more painful when it stems from an honest mistake.
I think she was trying to say that African Americans would perceive that we must from be a privileged background, because we are white, educated, well-spoken, good writers, etc. I think. And I can get that. But, well, I think it's still a dangerous place to go when you don't know the backgrounds of everyone in the room.
