You think I’m joking.
Hotmethodist: oh my god
Hotmethodist: i have this class that’s like a black hole
Hotmethodist: and it sucks out all my cool skills
Hotmethodist: and leaves me just a boneless blob of awkward.
Hotmethodist: conversation that actually happened:
Hotmethodist: (sitting in a group of five people)
Hotmethodist: girl: “we could do our presentation on STD prevention”
Hotmethodist: other girl: “you know like, one in four people has an STD.”
Hotmethodist: me: “I wonder which one of us does!?”
Hotmethodist: *SILENCE*
Grinchman042: HA!
Grinchman042: No one could run with that?
Hotmethodist: no!!!!
Grinchman042: “I bet it’s me, ’cause last week I watched alot of porn.”
Grinchman042: Or make fun of the prof or the popular kid or something.
Grinchman042: You just can’t let that one pass by.
Hotmethodist: well, they did
Hotmethodist: and just stared at me
Hotmethodist: including the dude id been ogling.
Hotmethodist: just stared.
Hotmethodist: earlier we’d been brainstorming problems at UT (which we needed for our prsentation and that’s how stds came up)
Hotmethodist: and someone was like “so waht are some problems at ut?”
Hotmethodist: and I said “well, honestly, MY first reaction was ‘white people’. ”
Hotmethodist: and they stared at me
Hotmethodist: and i tried to explain “ha ha..because Im white…we make that joke at church all the time…i mean…umm….”
Grinchman042: But so true!
Hotmethodist: i know!!!!
Grinchman042: C’mon, weren’t there any liberals there??
Hotmethodist: and then i was like “i mean…my church is mostly white…but we’re real tolerant….theres some asian…people….”

yo baby, I’ve been stuck in groups like that for my WHOLE LIFE. Hopefully you’ll never self-censor…just keep on letting it fly. It’s good for these people. : ) And I would have loved to have been there, so I could’ve gone “HAHAHAHA WHICH ONE OF US IS IT???” and “Yeah, I know I consider myself a significant part of the problem, for real.” Or something.
Example from last week:
Me (to a colleague): I’m glad you’re here, Marcella
Former Crush Math Professor: I am too, it’s busy.
Me: No, not just to WORK. I’m always glad she’s here. I’m glad she’s, like, EXISTENTIALLY here.
FCMP: EXISTENTIALLY here. Wow. Good point.
Me: Yes.
Have a great weekend.

[...] My second class is the one where I can’t quite get my stuff right. And I get frustrated with my teacher pretty easily, which isn’t fair, but I do. [...]
