I'm sure that in his mind he meant well, and I can see him saying something if I was doing poorly or failing his class and came to him with excuses. But neither applies. I was honest in my self-assesment and said, "I will strive to do better with my time the second half of the term." and I have a solid B in the class.
Then again, most of what this particular professor says bothers me since he a) corrected my typo in front of the whole class and referred to me by name when he did it and did not correct anyone elses and b) referenced my personal blog in the class blog to slap at me about my questions regarding peer review.
Happy Birthday DJ. Happy anniversary Jilli & Pete.
Spidra feel better. Nilly's muscles I order you to recover quickly and hope this is more effective than every other time I try to give orders.

Ack, well that puts an entirely different light on it. Bad professor! No biscuit.
Oh, yeah! I get so mixed up when I've got tons of posts in both Bitches and Natter that I lose track of what I want to respond t-HI NILLY!
That moving situation sounds pretty hard. I'm so sorry the elevator is out-of-service right when you need it. I hope the new place is great, though. ONE MORE ROOM!

You know when I first smited him, I thought about adding, "May all the repair people treat him like a simple, ignorant peasant when he questions why things keep breaking," but deleted it because it seemed too harsh. Now I think he deserves the addition.
Happy birthday, Daniel!
Thank you for the anniversary wishes, everyone!
Happy birthday, DCJ!
Happy anniversary, Jilli and Pete!

Sounds like an old school kind of professor who sees a lot of potential in you and thinks perhaps the way to provoke you into doing better is to single you out.
Which is to say, he's an asshat. May a plague of frogs come and pee on his head.
Happy Anniversary, Reasons!
13 years? Wow, that is great! Happy Anniversary to the House of Reasons.
