Suggesting a student go and jump off a cliff - is it a crime?

I shouldn’t think you’ll have any problem with his stupid claims of discrimination. I assume the rest of the class was not enchanted with him? They’ll confirm everything that went on. This is a slam-dunk, IMO. This guy’s claims will be disregarded. He will merely prove to anyone who comes in contact with him that he is an utter and complete asshole.

Glad you are probably going to file a complaint against him, though. It is certainly appropriate.

I’m so glad that South Park would be against his religious principles, and that he likely hasn’t seen the movie… cuz I could have been in SERIOUS doo-dooh. He was waiting in the hallway next to the dean’s office (I was meeting the dean before him, about his case)… and I started whistling “Uncle Fucka”… Only when I entered the office did I realize what I had been doing. It was a serious case of “did I say that out loud?”

shhhuuuut your fuckin’ face, uncle fuckaaaa…

BTW - the dean is backing me 100%, and suggested deportation might be in order (damn, I wish it could be done.)

E.

why cant i get a teacher like you once in a while??? Donuts for class, whitling South Park tunes… I might actually come to class.

Aw, thanks, theendisnear. I might have to use that fer me signature :wink:

I’m somewhat off the wall. My students work their asses off, but they seem to enjoy themselves. We even watched Monty Python’s The Holy Grail this year (I teach in Religious Studies, we are doing new religious movements in that class, and I had to do something about humour and religion… so hey.) Also on the list was a Simpsons episode (the one where Homer joins a cult). We had fun. The good news is, they all remember what I taught them, including the tedious bit about all those idiotic typologies…

Sure, it’s pure bribes… But what the fuck. They come to class. I get stellar evaluations. Everyone is happy. So they keep hiring me. Someday, I may even get my own office! Yeah! (I share with three other people)…

As for the uncle-fucka, well, one can only hope he croaks.

Best,

E.

HOW can he claim discrimination? On WHAT grounds? That he can’t stone a woman?

Guinastasia: Well, he claims in his official complaint that I am not sensitive to his cultural needs and his “way of life.” He claims that I mark unfairly, especially when his work is concerned, because I hate all people from Afghanistan (keep goin’ this way, buddy, and yeah, I might end up rather bitter). Also, he claims that I’m being immoral and unvirtuous, that I break the “dress code” of our institution (yeah, right…), and that I make racist statements (if I were to call him a “son of a bitch”, I wouldn’t be racist… It’s universal for “Your father was a jackal, your mom is his sister bitch…” and it sure as hell applies to him. Bastard.)

The dean laughed hysterically. I was relieved.

So basically, he can’t stone you and is pissed…

Elenfair, you are my hero.

I’m glad that you don’t have to deal with this guy in class anymore.

There’s an undertone of violence about what you’ve described with this guy that gives me concern - he seems to have the idea that you, personally are the demon that is thwarting his career. Please be careful. Ok? (not trying to scare you, just hoping that you’re being cautious)

Medea: yep. All he’s allowed to throw is a fit. And he is pissed.

AlbertRose: Wow, thanks :slight_smile: I’ll have to put that in my signature too!

wring: security is keeping an eye on my office and coming with me to class. It’s a pain in the ass, but the dean was worried and figured it was worth spending a few bucks on. So now I’m being followed by a goon with a lil’ wooden club and some pepper spray. This is Canada. Our security people can’t carry guns. Considering how brilliant most of our security people are, I’m kind of glad they don’t carry firearms. I can only hope that the big beefy dude’s presence will be enough to keep El-Weirdo away.

I really don’t feel like being used for target practice.

On the upside, the term is almost done. :smiley:

I get to go on holidays soon!

Maybe I should go start a social revolution in Afghanistan. Maybe I could start a “streakers” movement. Yeah.

So I have no morals, and no vitrue. I’m 100% vice. Apparently. Phew. Better that than 100% holy (cow).

Moo,

E.

good, glad to hear. And, at least it’s a goon on **your **side.

Woo hoo! Yea, Elenfair!

Shouldn’t that have been: “You mother was a hamster and your father smelled of elderberries”?

I love the “Uncle Fucka” bit.

Jeff: Good point…

The quote is from the (HILARIOUS) folk/humour group (did I mention they were hilarious???) called The Arrogant Worms. Thems be little boys frem Canada. The quote’s from their song “Carfull of Pain”, which is about a poor chap dukin’ it out with his mechanic.
