Title is pretty self-explanatory. Use this thread to say things that you wish you could say in real life, but know well enough to keep to yourself:
"Yeah, what are you going to do about it?? Fire me??"
"That might have been trendy . . . in 1975."

How do you get through the day not having even an elementary-school-level education? I understand being a bit rusty on some things, but arithmetic is not higher-level math, everyone should be able to write simple declarative sentences, and local geography should be ingrained.

If you haven't got either the anatomical or metaphorical balls to post your own question on a pseudonymous internet forum, then academia is the wrong job for you.

You are not even literate. I have simply been polite enough not to tell you.
You lead an extremely boring life.
If you were busy then you would get to the point instead of ramblin' on.
There really is no point in doing that. You are lucky that you can get away with that extreme laziness.
This is harder then you could ever imagine. You live in a much easier world. You will never leave that world.

You and twenty students on your campus should thank your lucky stars I just saved the day, the semester, and your sorry ass.
Don't you ever freaking do that again, or even think about doing that again without consulting me.

Do you have any idea how ridiculous you are going to look doing that and how disgusted most people are by your total and complete self centered life style?
