You two! I'm going to start nicknaming you after the cat and dog. :)

So, the other day, I thought I read about some plan to have people chatting after class, doing alternative teach-ins. I guess I'd be really bugged to find out people had planned such a thing. It feels manipulative. Why can't you just have the teach-in, instead of pretending to have spontanous discussions in the hallway. Does anyone else find this a less than tactful approach and, quite possibly, one that would backfire once it was exposed as a big plan?

Now I'm thinking back on every time I saw the red-orange wankers screaming outside the Hall of Languages. It was all staged, to get people to listen to the guy -- I kid you not -- in a black turtle neck, black slacks, and black beret -- and a serious case of unmatched blacks.
