Big Rass

So we're in our CSC166 lecture, and the computer will just not co-operate with the lecturer. He tries logging on to linux a couple of times and the console just won't do it. Then he tries to open the browser and it takes ages to open. He's not on his best of moods, so he gets a freak attack and just calls the lecture off due to "a crap computer." So well, that's 40 minutes early, we're not going to complain. We start getting ready to go and then this guy comes in (obviously late) and looks around him--how everyone's standing up and grabbing their coats. He looks well confused. Perhaps he thinks time has elapsed faster than he thought and that he arrived at the end of the lecture. Well, who knows what he was thinking, but his face was hilarious to watch--the puzzlement. When everybody starts heading for the exit, he looks even more confused. Finally, someone decides to inform him. He didn't look too disappointed as he left the lecture theatre.

There's a switch outside one of the lecture rooms I attend. There's a big label above it that roughly says "do not switch light off--security camera in operation." I believe that is one of the stupidest things to put. If they dont' want anyone to switch it off then don't put a switch there... especially because if a robber walks in a reads that, guess what's the first thing he'll do...

I've got a new professor for programming (it seems I have a new one every fortnight, doesn't it?). The thing is, this guy's really great. Why? He looks like a cartoon: he has huge ears that stand out! It's well funny to watch. That was, though, until I got a side glipse of him reading some stuff before a lecture. I've got to say that the guy looked just like Mr. Rasmuson right down to the smallest detail... only that he had huge ears that made him look like a cartoon of Mr. Rasmuson. Many of the motions he does are Rasmuson-identical as well, which makes me think that this is where he came for his retirement...

By the way, I remembered what I was talking about with Ryan (well, he remembered to be honest). We had just gone to McDonalds for a quick bite (they weren't serving food at the pub at that time) because there was a promotion where you got two burgers for the price of one. So we're sitting down eating, and he's praising McDonalds (even though we both hate it) because of the free burger we get, and I say "yeah, it's great, because when you're alone in your room you can just take it out and make yourself feel better." Yes, it sounds like the dirtiest comment ever, but honestly, I was only thinking about the burger... it just came all wrong.
