On teacher-ial stupidity. And stuff.
Dec. 3rd, 2004 03:03 pmThe scene. Critical Studies class. Getting talked through how you write a good essay. Twenty-something bored students staring at the screen.
Some days our tutor is almost cool, viz. Spirited Away and Happy Tree Friends references.
This was not one of those days.
He was talking about how, to make a storyline good, you need to do your research. Fair enough point, although all we're doing are two minute films. Pictorial drabbles. Didn't matter. As I said, good point - but not good delivery. He came out as rude, arrogant, etc...
Yes, we just got out and out flamed by our tutor.
I swear, if there's a verbal equivalent of going "!!!1!!1!!!!1!111!!elevnty!!!" he was doing it. We were not happy bunnies. Wish I had a copy of the cartoon one of the lads drew.
