If that was me and he asked who cleans up after you at home, I would've said the principal does!


Yeah, I was a wiseass in highschool too. That principals reaction would have triggered my switch and I'd have gotten suspended....again.

Did you leave it on the table?
Then you should have picked it up.
Easy
Don't get your knickers in a twist so easily

I totally think it's a good trait! Sure, it can get you into trouble, but who cares, you know? I do the same. I ALWAYS say what I think. Honesty is so important.
Yeah, that is a major overreaction to a simple soda on a table. What a wackjob. I would've told him he was being ridiculous. No joking.

[quote="wiiman8"]: 40 years ago, I was taking a course in Comparative Vertebrate Physiology. My professor, it turned out, grew up with my mother's first cousin. At a family gathering, I was asked my opinion of this mutual acquaintance. "He's a first class sh---k!", I exclaimed.
"I guess some things really never do change" was the reply!!

You're going to look back on this ''sh---k" one day, when life finds you way ahead in achievement beyond anything that insensitive and tactless fool ever hoped to achieve in his life, shake your head, and laugh.

I've buried many of the fools in my life, including the one who gave an Embryology Quarterly exam the Monday following the Kennedy assassination and all that ensued, with the admonition..."I know it's been a tough weekend, but do your best!"

Why we find so many of these jerks in academia is beyond me. I'm there as part of my regular professional activities, and I still have to deal with them myself, and I am on parity with them.

As far as your parents intervening, often they will not carry enough juice in this regard. If the fool made it to his present position, he's got enough backing to weather this one. The only thing which will move him is a "White House Page" scenario.....and.....guys like that often make the mistake of thinking that they're invulnerable. So behave, and bide your time.

Go bend a string!! You'll feel better, and your cup will runneth over.

Doc :wink:
