But you don't say "My house has been burgled." That sounds redickerous.

Yes, burgled! Sounds less ridiculous than burglarise. :p

So, by that logic, do butlers "butle"? :p

Well, they don't butlerise either, so I'm not sure how that helps anybody. ;)

Here we just say, "Someone broke into my house so I shot him dead." :p

As in "Go buttle off" like in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade? Good point.

Also a good point. However, if "incentivize" can be properly used as a verb (and it can, I looked it up), then it logically follows that "butlerize" could also be used as a verb. :p

My most memorable experience with bedouins - a throng of bedouin women surrounding me and pulling my hair, thinking it's a wig. Apparently, I was the first blonde person a lot of them had ever seen IRL.

Lent is a very strange thing. No one I knew did it while I was growing up, so it all seems particularly arbitrary.

I dropped this gem on facebook just now:

Dude. Your subwoofer is rattling the potted plant on my window sill. I'm on the third floor. Start learning braille NOW.

Thanks to Kia, I am now aware that braille will do a deaf person no good.... Not my brightest moment. :lol:

More great quotes from one of the adjuncts.

Student: "I'm really sorry that I fell asleep in class. I worked a triple shift last night."

Ed: "I'm more concerned that your shoes appear to have individual toes."

Student: *silence*

Ed: "It's OK, just don't do it again.

Student: "What, the sleeping or the shoes?"

Ed: *pause* "Both."

Today's dispatch from the Getting It Out of My System file:

Student: "I made a 54 on the first exam and a 61 on the second. Can I still make an A in the class or should I drop?"

Ed: "Enroll in Math 1113 to discover the answer."

Actual email from a 19 year old freshman. The last two sentences are amazing. What a super special princess.

"I received a B+ in your class. My grade is an error because of discriminatory inconsistencies in requirements between the separate breakout sessions. I was in ___'s breakout session and though he was a great teacher, the work he assigned differed greatly from other breakout sessions. There were additional tasks assigned to my class that were inconsistent with the level of effort versus other classes. For example one TAs breakout session was based solely on attendance; I went to every breakout session, therefore i would have received a 100% in that class. If i was graded according to the other break out sessions i would have received a 100%. I expect my breakout session grade to be changed to 100%, due to the fact that i feel my grade my discriminatory. This grade is an error, and i expect this error to be corrected because of the points above, and due to inconsistent requirements."

In the comments section, he later wrote:

I was very proud of myself, especially given that I am leaving UGA, for not just telling her to go ewok herself with the nearest available solid object.
