Quotes from class
Occasionally, while in class, someone will say something that just...its either so out there everyone cracks up or its just so funny everyone cracks up. When that happens, I usually write it down to post on twitter later.
I was going through my notebook, cleaning out the notes I don't need anymore. Here are some of the gems I found:
"Only an English Major could find a way to correct the grammar in a silent movie." -Kat
*looking at a DVD cover*
"Did I see subtitles?!" *rest of class laughs* "Seriously, I don't understand how you can have subtitles in a silent movie!" - Melissa
"Word choice is just as important as grammar. Otherwise you get sentences like this" *puts sentence on screen* "They appointed theblind blonde girl head life girl." - Dr. Mac
"That sounds horrible!" - student
"Its your sentence!" - Dr. Mac
*going over intensifier verbs*
"This is the first time I've tried that and no one said 'quite'." - Dr. Mac
"That's too British, man." - Fonz
"You know you're getting old when you get fed up with the younger generations slang words." - Student
"Amen." - Dr. Mac
*about the phrase "my bad"*
"I tried saying that but it wouldn't come out." - Dr. Mac
*goes on a tangent on how he likes the word 'aint' cause its so flexible*
"...what were we discussing again? I completely lost my train of thought." -Dr. Mac
"Aint that the pits?" - Student
*student gives his sentence*
"'The penguins that waddled are freezing.'" - Student gives his sentence
*Is there any other kind of waddling? ... Don't answer that." - Dr. Mac
"If I ask you to give me the sentence tense on the final, first you're going to cuss me out, and then you're going to answer the question." - Dr. Mac.
