Or possibly just taking over the NY Art world. Also with an evil laugh.

Nah, he doesn't seem real interested in perusing an art career, he is split on being an engineer, a rock star, or something else, medical I think. So basically Buckaroo Bonzai.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

So a kid who missed most of the last two weeks just walked into my (empty) classroom and said, "I want to turn in my work today."

Um, honey, when you were here last thursday, I said the last day to turn in work was friday. you didn't come on friday. I've already turned grades in.

Seriously? It's the LAST DAY OF SCHOOL. WTF?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Awesome duck travels 2 miles to save ducklings:

The six ducklings fell down an underground access and were swept away – but mum could not fit through it.

So the mallard followed their frantic quacks overground across two main roads and a railway line until they stopped under a manhole in Gosforth, Newcastle.

She then sat quacking loudly for at least four hours until jogger Peter Elliott, 59, and daughter Vicki Jefferson, 30, stopped to see what was wrong with her.

They were amazed to hear the faint sound of quacking coming from under the cover and, with the help of friend Jim Calder, lifted it off with a crowbar.

They were even more stunned to see the six ducklings below — and lifted them all out to safety with a child’s fishing net.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

I think they might be out having drinks with mine.

Time for them all to be cut off.

Total. I was so pissed last year when we had to write a 30 page journal article for one of my classes and some fool had his sister's wedding to attend right after the class was over (which he knew before the class even began) and used it as an excuse for not finishing on time. And he got the extension! That is so not on. My fellow classmates and I worked our asses off to get that paper done and turned in on the due date and this jerk got like weeks of extra time to finish his. NOT ON!

Well, I laughed long and loud in his face. Then said, "seriously?" Then I laughed some more.

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

Be careful when wearing a thong - it could put your eye out.

Like many moms, Macrida Patterson's mother may have warned her when she was growing up about all the things that had to be handled carefully because "it could put your eye out."

Maybe she should have added thongs to that list.

Patterson is the 52-year-old Los Angeles traffic cop who's made news by suing Victoria's Secret for an eye injury she said she suffered because of what she alleges to be a defective thong. The offending garment is a blue bit of fabric with a rhinestone heart forming part of the waistband, connected to the fabric by metal links.

"I was putting on my underwear from Victoria's Secret, and the metal popped into my eye," Patterson told TODAY's Meredith Vieira Thursday from Los Angeles. "It happened really quickly. I was in excruciating pain. I screamed. That's what happened."

Shit's all sorts of different now.

people and their wacked out sense of entitlement

In my history class last night, this girl went to the Prof to say that she has to be in Buffalo the first week of every month because her grandfather is ailing and she's trying to balance spending time with him and school. Prof doesn't allow make-up tests and she'd miss two with that time schedule. He told her they'd revisit it another day and she said thanks and left. As she walked past me she said, "Hate to play that dead grandfather card." I looked at her, snapped my fingers and said, "Gee. I'm two years too late to play. Darn it!"

Eff you, stupid bint.
