I don't know why people do these things.

I must lack imagination or drive or something.

From the article "As the student was leaving the room, Mr. Chadima suggested he had been joking."

Yeah, I always joke by putting my hand down someone's pants.

What I wonder when I read these things is why more academics don't be a little smarter about this.  Don't go for the grab; do a series of corny lines that could be taken as "Yeah, I was teasing/joking.  I'll stop since you're not interested".  That way, if someone responds in a hope-you're-serious way, then you can move away from the tease.

What happened to the art of seduction?  Sheesh.

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.

It's been replaced by sports and bad porn.
