Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Hands up if you're afraid to disagree.
I have 1400+ emails in my inbox alone. I'm not counting the other folders (which exceed 10.) I've got documentation of everything but meeting notices back to 2000 or so (whenever it was I had a disk failure prior to mail being stored on the server.) Like msbelle, do NOT try to contradict me if you emailed me. Ever.

me!
me too!
thanks for giving me a good laugh before bed.
For homework, my students are reading Aristotle's Poetics. Teehee. On the class wiki, they are all commenting on 1. how boring it is (true) 2. how they hate Aristotle (what did he ever do to them and 3. how they read the same page over and over.
Welcome to AP, children.

Am I the only one who hears a distinct "muah ha ha ha" after that?
I just see Kat's smirk and raised eyebrow...
Nah. But COME ON. This is supposed to be pseudo college level work. And how many of you have read Aristotle (or Plato or Socrates) and found yourself re-reading the same passage 10 times? It's a veritable rite of passage.
I mean. Let's be honest. I haven't read the whole thing. I've read critiques of it (literary criticism is so much more efficient, says the girl who watched Barcelona and Metropolitan one too many times) and I'll use those for tomorrow. But seriously? Stop complaining and just suck it up.
I actually did tell one of my students to just man up and take his lumps today.
