Mary Worth 3044

The audacity, making all his students think that he's an easy A, and then, wham, Expectations! Helicopter parents must hate him.

Whoah! Look out Ian! You're putty in the hands of the Pied Piper of Philip Morris!

Who smokes cigarettes like that? Morticia Addams is the only one that comes to mind.

Jannie is going to a lot of trouble just for a grade. I suspect she's really after Ian's family secret haggis recipe.

I do not intend to diminish nor demean the study of literature in any way with the following comment but....

It is a flippin' undergrad English Lit class at a third tier UC campus! If you can fog a mirror and bother to show up for lectures every now and again, you should do fine.

Today's Boldface Haiku is titled

"Pack Up Your Tic Tacs In Your Lil Backpack And Smile, Smile, Smile".

Need study...
(Charmed Easy "A"!)
Fooled "A"!
Goes easy, deliver!
(You, not!)

A "fooled A"? My god, all this time Ian was just giving out F pyrite!

If she does this for English Lit, she must be doing it for other courses as well. The next faculty mixer could get interesting.

Karen Moy needs to get out more.

I have a feeling that Santa Royale Community College University has entrance requirements that are less than stringent...an active brainstem and the ability to obtain financial aid should be all a prospective student needs. If Jannie has to use her dubious charm to get an A in English Comp 101, she’s going to have to put even more effort into remedial Math.

I found Ian on ratemyprofessors.com. Turns out he teaches a class at Carleton University in Canada. Must be online... Jannie would do well to review the comments of other students here.https://www.ratemyprofessors.com/ShowRatings.jsp?tid=69180

Easy A? The jokes write themselves!

Why is Jannie smoking a makeup brush? And wouldn't it be cool if she could blow a smoke cloud in Chinbeard's shape?

Ian will be crushed when he discovers that Jannie has an ulterior motive. I foresee long showers, clouds of steam, and mournful singing of Scottish sea chanteys.

I'm still focusing on Jannie's cigarette/vaper. It looks like she's sucking on a smoking straw. Has June ever seen a cigarette or vaper?

I'd like to think that Ian is not that stupid that he would fall for this Eddie Haskell level brown nosing, but I'm asking too much. Mary will have to step in and spell it out for him.

If I had done anything vaguely like this to one of my professors, I think I would have been asked to leave their class or possibly the school. The only professor I would have remotely done this to would have been my math professor because I have the math skills of a third grader but never did because I have scruples, unlike Jannie Brownnoser.

Regina - oh yes! Let that be her last name! Love it.
