That's what she said.
Exactly.
Sometimes I miss having powers... Oh. Oh! I know what this is! This is peer pressure! Any second now you're gonna make me smoke tobacco and--and have drugs!

how thrilling. It is unfortunate that one should be so happy about health insurance, but that is more of a statement about the US policies than about the circumstance of getting a job!
yay Amy and hubs! Boo the above. Universal healthcare now damnit!!

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Fantastic news, Amy! Congratulations to Stephen! Numfar, do the dance of joy!

Cash, interesting. I could see that if the prof was already a creepy guy, the first poster might creep me even more and dissuade ne from attending office hours. I can think of a few professors I know that would apply to. I can think of more who the poster would make me go "awesome, he's a firefly fan!". But the second one seems a rational response...
(note--my major was chem, so I had a lot of creepy poorly socialized professors)

he he ... in seemingly creepy but not ...
One of the chemistry professors at my (women's) college would take the students into a dark supply closet and mix up some chemicals that would glow in the dark (don't ask me what the purpose was - other than GLOW IN THE DARK). One day he did this and, as a tour group of prospective students and their parents came by they heard squeals of girlish glee and "ooh! Dr. x! do it again!" He came out of the supply closet into the middle of a rather stunned - and suspicious - group, muttered "chemistry, ma'am, chemistry" and took off for the necessary chemicals.

OK, just finished meeting with Big Boss who is here from MN to assure everyone that they are very committed to this office. He seemed more scared that I might start looking somewhere else than anything else.
On the upside, I had been wanting to approach my boss about his delegating more and letting me in on more things, which I guess will happen by default now.
