Quote from a freshman during sociology

[Mike]

Today in sociology a girl answered a question about the expectations we place on our society like this (note, spelling is modified to reflect pronunciation):

"Um, I think it is impordind that we have like, diversity, cuz if we didn't have diversity, everyone would be way bored and be like, super mean".



I almost couldn't contain my laughter. Add your own quotes.

Uh...in my sociology class, some fat cunt was screaming about how the Simpsons and Beavis and Butthead were responsible for turning kids into potty mouths, yet Beavis and Butthead hasn't been on the air in a fucking decade and the Simpsons doesn't curse that much. It wasn't taht funny, I guess. :<

Ummm in my economics class I have a French professor and for about 10 seconds one day he started saying "beeg MAHC attAHCK" over and over again, then continued teaching normally. To make sure I wasn't losing the little sanity I have left I looked around and saw that everyone else looked confused. VERY surreal

In my sociology class our teacher asked us why the government didn't tax the church and I said because god said so....


but she didn't here it the first two times...


and when she did, she didn't realize I was joking...


That was my first day of class after walking in 10 minutes late...

[kellychaos]

Why didn't she realize you were joking? Did you look all stern or something ... or did she agree? :/

I walked into a class yesterday and one of the kids said "I didn't know he was a student" and that sucked lot for some reason.

French teachers are all crazy. Mine told a girl not to come to her class because she was pregnant and then lectured the whole period about how France has no teen pregnancy problems and thier only problem is teen smoking.

I dunno...the Russian ones that I've had are pretty crazy as well...
Asking a question that pertains to what is currently being taught involves a heavily accented "Asking that question is like asking an Italian person something in Spanish. It's just too far off topic!!"

I took Sociology with a Jamaican black man who, when approached after my final with a request to get an B in the class when I earned a C, said, "Do you think you deserve to get a B?" I said yes, and he said "okay."

In a political sciene class we were talking about overpopulation and some girl was like, "well, we need to improve the status of women by giving women in third world countries access to education", and my professor was like, "so we need to teach these women how to count."
He was usually a really boring prof, so I don't even think anyone was listening to him

Sounds like a great professor to me.

There was this guy in my Science class, that was going "Let's get physical, physical.", and our teacher replies "You know, you look like one of the guys working out in that video"

Damnit there's no such thing as over population. Its all to do with the share of resources. The west - Europe and America take and take from continents such as Africa and do not pay them a fair share for their resources, they charge interest on any aid they give and most of the time the money falls into the hands of corrupt officials.

Of course this isn't always the case but its what often happens. There are however some companies that are trying to make trade fair such as green and blacks, traidcraft, tearfund etc. >sigh<

Basically there is more than enough to go around and anyway, alot of those children that cause "overpopulation" actually die before the age of 5.
