From the Foot in Mouth Dept.
I'm taking a four credit hour statistics class in a five week summer session, which amounts to about twelve hours of lecture a week. We have two hour long classes (with a five minute break) so to get to twelve hours we have a second class on Wednesday afternoons. Ugh. Anyway, I arrived a little early to class one Wednesday, and there were some students and a professor from the previous period still in the room. One girl says to the professor "I have a stupid question." The professor then said "One of my graduate students says 'There's no such thing as a stupid question, just a stupid asker.'" The girl then says "Oooookay" thinking she just got instulted. Right then the professor throws up his hands and said "I didn't say it." Uh, yeah, you did just said it. Geeze, I thought I knew how to make a fool of myself.
