Just something we can't handle.

Looks like a nice enough guy, right? WRONG. This nice little picture I found up here, I'm choosing not to credit. But as he so kindly pointed out in class today, it's probably not my own, because as we know, "Nothing new ever comes from a blog."
Picture this. You're hungry before your 2 o'clock class, so you go buy yourself a nice turkey sandwich. When you go to eat it before class, your teacher notices you eating it and gets a smug look on his face. (kinda like the one pictured above.) As soon as everyone has arrived, he gets class started by telling you to stand up and show the class your sandwich. Hm. That's strange. Good thing you've got your best friend right next to you to inform the professor that you don't like to be publicly humiliated. You stand up anyways (possibly because you are an invertebrate) and show the class your sandwich as he asked you to. He then says, "Now take a bite." Observing you taking a bite he says, "That's not a bite." And points out to the whole class that you can't handle your sandwich. Hm. You think to yourself, "I'd like to see YOU handle this sandwich," meanwhile your friend continues asking him to stop. You start laughing, then start crying, and despite all this, your teacher asks you to stand up and show the class one more time what it's like to have a mouth like a small fish that can't open and eat its food.
This "little" fish's mouth can own everything. Including Dr. Nelson. He'll tell you about it if you ask.

Something about this situation is a little bit...off. For some reason I think this man needs to practice what he preaches a little more. "So, have a heart today." Yes, Dr. Nelson, Have a heart today. Let me sit down.

Happy Valentine's Day?
