I can't wait until I get tenure so that I can actually WRITE "What the fuck are you thinking?" instead of just thinking it.
At present, I sometimes use a stamp that Atom Smasher made for me. It simply says "WTF?," which I think it has plausible deniability. The few recipients of the WTF stamp have speedily made appointments for office hours to resolve what the fuck, exactly, is going on with their assignments.

I remember reading a comment by someone (on RYS maybe?) who said they had written WTF? in pencil while reading a colleague's paper, forgotten to erase it, and then when the colleague asked what WTF meant, said, "It means, 'What's That For?'" Good save.
...and god help me...I laughed out load...repeatedly through the entire trailer (just like I did a Bad Santa in the movies...which I watched instead of doing desperation christmas shopping the year it came out)...
I hate to type this, but: LOL...at least twice.
ReplyDeleteRed band trailers are so great.
ReplyDeleteI have got to see this. I plan to model next year's teaching persona on it entirely.
ReplyDeleteI'm so all over seeing that.
ReplyDeleteSo far as I can see, this is just "Bad Santa" with a female grade school teacher replacing the drunk santa/store robber.
ReplyDeleteWatch "Stripes" again instead.

I LOL'ed. And then I thought, shit. Don't need this--at least not in WI right now where they're already telling us that we're lazy do-nothing leeches.
ReplyDeleteFuck it. At least we'll have a good laugh.
Way to keep it going, Strel! No flies on you!
ReplyDeleteLiving vicariously. Living vicariously...

Yeah, right. And RTFM means, "Read the friendly manual."
ReplyDelete"read the FINE manual".

Oh man, I'm going to suggest going to this movie as a departmental social event at the next meeting.
ReplyDeleteOh come on, Strelnikov: it's got Cameron Diaz in the role she was born to play. I HAVE to see this.
ReplyDeleteAlso now I want a WTF?! stamp for my papers.
I made a stamp that says "HUH?!" It works really, really well...And there's really not much innocence I must feign.
