Discovered this on the door of a CS professor's office

[Asher]

Yes, it will, and yes, it was! The man put the ****ing poster on his door. I'm not revealing any secrets here. If he gets mad, he can go **** himself, and no one, NO ONE, is going to be upset at me for pointing out that some dude stuck something so incredibly stupid on his door for the world to see. I didn't even comment on it. I just posted, "I saw this on the 4th floor of Wean" and my fellow classmates are doing all the work of tearing him to shreds

Face it Asher. You wanna make a dig at me because you're butthurt over the fact that we absolutely destroyed your ridiculous touchscreen company's marketing in the other thread, and you thought this'd be an opportunity. But it's not.

I'm sorry, I can't follow your logic here.

I'm butthurt because you made a fool out of yourself in the other thread? You knew nothing you were talking about, got schooled, and somehow think your dumbass comments without any reality to back them up constituted "destruction"?

I'm making a ton of money off my "ridiculous touchscreen company" via options (stock is up 87% this year) in addition to salary and bonuses. You're a student who gets off making fun of professors.

You really schooled me!

This is hilarious. Y'all are acting as if he didn't actually intend for people to discover that he believes in this crap. He put the thing on his DOOR. In a PUBLIC BUILDING. Next to his NAME.

I agree completely. Really, all you're doing is helping him spread the word about our government's atrocities.

You don't understand what you did wrong here. Which is not unexpected.

The problem isn't that you're making someone's stupidity more public when it's already public.

The problem is you are mocking a senior member of your school and department's faculty. You may get a couple snickers from classmates, but the other side is you may get into some trouble from your school (this kind of stuff happens a lot), it can get your name out there amongst professors as someone who lacks respect for professors (which won't help you if you want to get into grad school, or help you get good grades), and it makes you look like a child (which won't help you get laid).

Critical analysis of the situation shows the potential cons vastly outweigh any potential pros.

Ergo, it was a stupid thing to do.

None of those things are going to happen. I bet the other faculty are laughing at the truther.

Just to be clear, I have also gotten off on this conversation, and make more than you do

Very good chance none of it will happen. But there's a chance it will. Since there's no pro at all really, cons still outweigh the pros.

Twinsies.

We both make money off the back of the US taxpayer.

[Asher]

BTW, a student did something similar here the other year and it turned into a massive cluster****. The school censured the student for the Facebook post, the student took the school to court and won (freedom of speech) but generated lots of press in the process, but now any employer googling the student's name will see he's a ****wad.

He also thought he was being very clever.

I somehow doubt the kid's facebook post was a picture of a sign posted in public?

Close!

They posted:

“I no longer fear Hell, I took a course with Aruna Mitra

and

“Somehow I think she just got lazy and gave everybody a 65. That’s what I got.”

and

“Remember when she told us she was a long-term professor? Well actually she was only sessional and picked up our class at the last moment because another prof wasn’t able to do it . . . Lucky us.”

[Wiglaf]

That isn't close at all.

[Asher]

HC's post is actually a bit more personally insulting than their comments, so you are correct. Their comments were about the efficacy of the teaching, and HC's is about how the prof lacks critical thinking skills.

This is just depressing. Aren't professors supposed to have critical thinking skills?

What's the insult here? All HC is doing is helping him spread the word about how the official story about what happened on 9/11 doesn't add up.

Wait a minute, could quoting someone be considered an insult?

[Wiglaf]

He didn't post that under his real name, unles Hauldron Collider is his real name...
