le quotes....

The end of quarter tradition (is it really?) in which I type here, for posterity, anything said in class that I felt was memorable enough to be scribbled in the margins.


"But if you switch out the wafer with blueberry muffin, that something really big, that's different..." -Dr. Kangas

"It's a good way to be right, if you kill off everybody else." -TJ

"Revelation is the only book of the Bible that still has uncertainty--(pause) That is pretty much completely untrue." -Kareem

"Oh, we're due for an apocalypse--"
"Yeah, been a while since the last one." -TJ, Michelle

"Famine is just hungry people and no one wants to join up." -Kyle

"We've always been orbiting around the sun, haven't we?"
"Have we?" -John, Dr. Kangas

"The Hoppers...I mean, the Shakers--"
"I just got this image of a radical sect, hopping...faith, hop and charity, and the greatest of these is hop." -Laura, Dr. Kangas (who is a Red Dwarf fan! By that he got about a million times cooler, if that was even possible.)

Bourbons: Absolut monarchy.

"Poems aren't accidents!" - (i can't remember...sadly. maybe john?)

"Squishy metaphysical thought." - Dr. Kangas

"I think Will would have liked it." -Dr. Taylor, on Nunn's 'Twelfth Night'

"The mneumonic of Shaw is the turning of the page, rather than the end of the line." -Ian McKellen (from a video we watched in Lit)

"Cool!--points!--worked!" -Dr. Taylor (on what a samurai would say about sneak attacks)

"He does stuff! He's God!" - Mallory

"Wise up, God!" -Dr. Taylor

"What does 'battering' make you think of?"
"Pancakes."
"Yeah, pancakes!" -Dr. Taylor, Mallory, Kareem (at which point Taylor looked caught between laughing and leaving the room in horror)



And the list of things to do? Oh, yeah, just one: GO HOME. Whahey!

ok, i have to add some from my lovely Inventing America professor who is kind of a comic genius without meaning to be one. So, courtesy of Nora Beck:
"Isn't this a lovely emdash?"
"What an exquisite semicolon!"
"Detail Rocks!"
"Yay! Emdash!"

I adore emdashes. I use them far too much. Semicolons as well. I am a semicolon and emdash whore.

Agreed on the emdashes—they are a truly excellent punctuation mark.

Semicolons are good too…but I also like elipses :p

elipses also go into my list of favorites.

completely off topic, have you heard stephen lynch's D&D song? it's hilarious.

To also add:

"And remember, when a young man invites you to conjugate, always decline."

you finally get out of school and get home (thus possibly having free time) and I leave the state! I'm in oregon for a bit. This week actually...but anyway you MUST see me this winter break. I shall be very hurt if I dont get to see you before next quarter starts...because once that happens I start my major(blurdy junior credit thingies) which means BOTH of us will be insanely busy. That simply will not do.

Call me dear girl. We shall arrage some time to hang out.
