My Stare of Death is Malfunctioning

For those of you eagerly anticipating the results of my exam, I think I did okay. I'm feeling mid-"B"ish.

Because the TA is a total tool, she doesn't let us leave after the exam (unlike my other two night class TAs, who are also smart enough to have a scheduled potty break on a nightly basis, btw. Instead of Ms. Tool's class where everybody makes their own potty break, so people are constantly coming and going. But I'm rambling now)...instead we have to take the exam, then wait around for the slow people to finish their exams, then sit through the TA's excruciatingly boring lecture. I do not exaggerate when I say she is completely unqualified and the worst teacher I've had in my entire life.

Plus she's an idiot in general. Tonight's lecture was about religion. Not a subject I claim to be an expert on, but I am a bit familiar. On the topic of "religious rites of passage", she could have mentioned Bat/Bar Mitzvahs, First Communion, or even some Native American rituals. Instead, for her example she described boot camp. American Armed Forces BOOT CAMP. Apparently the Pope is the new Commander in Chief, because that is the only way I can figure this is at all related to religion. She spent a good five minutes talking about boot camp, which I might forgive as being off topic if she had actually been to boot camp, but she hasn't. It was unrelated to anything.

Next week I will inquire as to what her doctoral thesis is on, because I am dying to know how this maroon is going to get a Ph.D. If she can get one, I can get one.
