Random college weirdness

When we were in the shuttle on the way to campus yesterday, the other students in the van were talking about Spongebob Squarepants.

Later, the shuttle driver was asking math problems. My older brother got them all, and then the driver said, "OK, here's a really easy one. My four-year-old nephew knows this one. Ready? Here it is: What is my middle name?"

The college liberal arts magazine's poster requesting entries said, "Now with less having to bribe us!"

A letter to an editor in the latest edition of the campus paper began, "Dear so-and-so. You are an idiot." (I've written letters to the campus paper, and I can only too well imagine the response if I had done that.)

My English Comp 102 professor (of course) walked into class and said, "I'm actually in a good mood today. I let loose a four-letter-word barrage on my other class, but I'm actually in a good mood."

My English Comp 102 professor (of course) complained about prejudice and stereotypes against blondes (I'm a blonde) and minorities in general, and then made the comment that parties had to get up more "romantic-type" candidates to get the female vote ("McCain vs. Obama, they just had to go with Obama.") I do resent that.
