...kept nearly all my textbooks, and I still use what ones from my major I didn't wear out long ago, and am still amazed every time I look at nearly all the ones from outside my major.
... called my professor at his home (I know, I'm a real shithead) to get out of an exam by claiming that my girlfriend's grandmother died so I had to drive her home that day.
Without directly saying so, the professor told me that while he thought I wasn't the brightest student in the class, he didn't realize that I was that so stupid to try that scheme. I managed to make it to the exam after all.
I can imagine him, for example, referring to your grades or saying that you were not doing really great but only "perfectly fine". Then, he would say that he was surprised and disappointed that you would even consider such a request.

... spent most of my free time refreshing a dying academic blog to increase the hit count.
ReplyDeleteThen why don't you do something constructive, such as ask a girl out on a date, or do your homework?
DeleteMy free time is what I have AFTER work and homework. And, as for the girl, I'm gayer than a cum flavored lollipop.
DeleteI don't think Frod cares who you ask out as long as it isn't a sheep.
DeleteThat's right, I don't. I don't even care if it is a sheep, although keep in mind that would put your school in a class with Fresno State.
