Political Science?

Jun 24, 2007 18:39

I'm looking forward to going to class tomorrow morning because my political science professor is insaneI had been warned by a friend who took one of his classes before that "He's too conservative, even for me." This was one of my Republican friends. Well, she's actually quite moderate, she just likes to call herself a Republican. But I digress ( Read more... )

I am abandoning all plans for a discussion of the implications of Superman's alien-ness for U.S. culture and switching instead to a discussion of Nazi's tomorrow!

Nazis!

Perhaps you could discuss WWII Superman comics. I'm sure the "Slap a Jap! Buy war bonds!" ones would go over well.

Also, can I transfer into your class? It sounds really cool.

I'm with DaMo. All plans to discuss types of scene transitions in Japanese manga versus American comics are scrapped in favor of NAZIS!

Because Nazis brighten up any classroom.

(I'm still sniggering at the "Godwin's Classroom" line...)

Obviously, you need to break out some old Captain America or JSA comics. "Okay class, here's the Flash...PUNCHING NAZIS!"

In all seriousness, I would love to be in your class. It sounds awesome.

I was quite pleased with myself for coming up with that ; )

X) Your professor seems to be... very crazy. Nazis! That's a very current world problem, along with not enough people wanting to overthrow governments. Or too many people wants to overthrow governments. Or something.

I hope you had a fun class! ...and that you don't have a terminal illness! talk about tactful...

Other things that are apparently "world problems" because we have discussed them in class: Jane Fonda, prostate cancer, unwed black mothers, Hillary Clinton, and whether the astronomy professor is sexist or not. It's ridiculous, but entertaining.

...and that you don't have a terminal illness! talk about tactful...

Oh, I know! What if I had said "Actually, I found out I have AIDS last week." Or if anyone in the class did really have a terminal illness.

That guy was just asking for you, or somebody else to say "I have a tumour. It's inoperable"

Have you ever had Mackin before? I mean, I had heard things, but nothing prepared me for the truth. This is by far the most entertaining class I've had in a long time!
