That would be fun on multiple levels :) I also like Heather's advice. I say find out his email address and submit it to dozens of porn sites. That would be fun on multiple levels :)

It was really annoying. The professor must have been annoyed too, because he shot the guy down a couple times telling him he essentially didn't know what he was talking about. It was glorious. :-)My high school history teacher hated it when people tried using big words. I will never forget him saying that the word 'utilized' is just a fancy way of saying used.

And they have a tendency to treat the teacher in a patronizing manner if the teacher is younger than them. That was my experience teaching adults on the college level. I'll never forget the time I gave a middle-aged, ex-Navy man a poor grade on a composition. I've never seen a face that red and angry on a man in my life. He was literally trembling with anger when he came to see me in my office. He was definitely not used to having someone twenty or more years his junior in a position of authority over him.
