One for that guy who said I never say anything nice about students.
Okay, so they weren’t actually MY students, and only one of them was awesome, but let me lay it on you, anecdotally.
Yesterday I was at the Starbux stand getting a coffee because I had only had one coffee that morning at home, and I had a bunch of marking to do, and my current level of caffeination was not going to cut it. I was bantering with the barrista, as is my wont. (I love this guy ever since he told me that if people are rude to him he gives them decaf.)
As I was stirring my coffee, there were two female students having a conversation about a test they had just had (or so I surmise). Student #1 was bitching about how the test was, like , unfairs because it was hard, and stuff. Student #2 nonchalantly said “I thought it was, like, totally easy if you studied.”
PWNT. I could not help myself, I gave her a high five.

Do tell what Student #1′s face looked like upon receipt of that pwnage.

The beloved gives me decaf if I’m rude to her, too. Must be very satisfying, being so evilly devious.

It’s so enjoyable when they shut each other down.

Despite being some length of time out of university I still belong to the Overheard at the University of Auckland facbeook page. This is a gem: “Lab 09, OGGB. Bogan 1: “Man, we are hardcore, who else stays here this late doing essays?”. The time being 8:16pm. Bogan 2: “Yeah we’re hardcore. But we are also retarded, ’cause everyone else probably just gets their shit done quickly!”
