Anyone got any funny quotes from lecturers/tutors/students?

Post away...

***** From Leon my 'Enlgish texts and writing' tutor/lecturer*****

- "You couldn't write a sonnet about a cabbage."

- [after talking about star wars, and then horses] "May the horse be with you," *blank expressions*, "I made a joke, you missed it."

- "Adam spends his time in the garden of Eden... weeding... mowing... mulching..."

- "The seamen [as in sailors] weren't responding to the friction"

- [on what a male character could have also said in a romantic poem] "He might say... you stupid bitch."


***** From other students *****

- "God is a tranny..."

- "He's just really cut-up." (on Frankenstein's monster... who is sewn together from the bodies of several dead men)

***** From my 'Everyday Life' tutor/lecturer *****

- "You deserved to be served first, because you might not be around tomorrow." (on why some people feel old ladies have the right to push in front fo you in queues.)

anyway... thats all i can think of...

'ive been unlucky in love, but i realised what it is, i have a hairy chest'

*puts up overhead of a magazine ad which shows a man with a hairy chest alone in bed, it says 'before....then it has 'after' the same man with a waxed chest laying in bed with a girl* lol

*mobile phone rings...* *the lecturer starts touching his pockets etc to check if its him* 'ok whenever a phone rings thats what i do...because i like touching myself'

we had a debate in class and i was backing up my argument from the text

seminar teacher: "is that what it says"
me: yes on page..
seminar teacher: "well they're wrong, they don't know what they are on about"


for the record: the supplementary reader is wrong and the seminar teacher picked it cause she is the unit co-ordinator

"Just tell the class why you chose pol si, and don't say becasue it's interesting, becasue that's really stupid, boring thing to say"
*I'm first*
"Uuum...because...it's.......interesting"
*tumbleweed*

Phil tute:
"Can we really react satisfactorily to the pain of others? Does our language communicate this effectivley?"
*me*
"Well, in the readings they were talking about those people who couldn't feel pain, and would bite their tounges off and walk on broken legs until the bone shoots out their flesh - That was gross, I winced at that"
*tutor*
"So you feel peoples pain even if they don't feel it?"
*me*
'Ah. Yes. I. Didnt think about...that"
*tumbleweed*

Torts tute:
*I turn up with coat-hanger*
"And why do you have a coat hanger?"
*grandstand* "I lost my suit!"
*tumble weed*

haha lol i love her favourite one - "what's your opinion - shoulod we have a bill of rights"
Student - "no we shouldn't"
Lecturer - "no! you're wrong! we should!"
Student - "but x, y, z in the text book supports my argument, xyz cases and legislation support it too and isn't it personal opinion anyways?!"
Lecturer - "it doesnt matter what you quote, we do need one"

hooray for encouraging investigative learning and free thought lol :p
