Whether or not you take issue with the use of the word "bitch" in conversation,

what kind of idiot uses it in a college (term) paper?!

:banghead:

I think it's a good thing that this is the last set of papers I'm helping grade for the semester. The moronacity is killing me.
:P

1. Haha

I'm really curious as to what the context was. What would posess someone to put it in a term paper?

[LaraMN]

4. I'm sure it *seemed* tame enough to him;

he used it in the context of complaining, not as a term of insult, but still!
One of the many abhorrences encountered in reading the papers of freaking COMMUNICATION majors!
:scared:

[LaraMN]

5. MorONacity!

It's one of my *words*,like "boobage"-(an unspecified quantity of breast material,) and "Dorkgasm"- (when my husband gets extremely excited about something technology-related.)

8. so whos the moron now?

lol. I try to be funny and look where it gets me :silly:

[LaraMN]

10. Bwahaha!

11. so you're saying Im all looks and no brain?

[LaraMN]

12. Oh heck no, honey!

You're just an apt combination of both!

3. Unless he or she is writing about dog lineage, it's pretty damn tacky.

6. I know. I wrote him a very diplomatic warning.

There just isn't a whole lot of common sense in the construction of most of the papers, to start with. I know some of the professors would REALLY flip at his use of *that* word, so I thought I'd advise him against using it, in the future.

7. That's not an old paper of Dick Cheney's, is it?

He seems to fling inappropriate language around pretty freely.

[LaraMN]

9. I don't think there are any Cheneys on the class roster.

I'll try to note if there is a faint odor of sulfur in the room the next time we have class, though.
