The Opposite of Help

You'd think that having the answers to the matching section printed on the test would be helpful, but you'd be wrong.

See, I already knew those particular answers, and now all the idiots who didn't know them got them right, too. Since the exam is graded on a curve, this brings the curve up.

Anyway, note to any TAs in the audience...proofread the exam and try not to have the answers on it. Thank you and have a nice day.

I'm on my second large coffee of the day already...about this time every semester, I consider becoming a full-fledged coffee drinker. It usually passes after about a week.

I've never been a coffee drinker. Usually after drinking a cup, I feel like it's burning through my insides. Well, that and my mother used to say it stunts your growth. Don't know how much truth there is to that, but there you have it.

And exactly how much more growing do you think you have in you at your age?

At my age? What's that supposed to mean eh?

Once you hit your mid twenties it all downhill.

And just how much are you spending on these classes? I'd be a bit pissed if the idiots who were supposed to be teaching were so brainless as to include the answers on the test.
