Sign of the Times
So today I was my favorite class. In this class, I participate alot because it seems like my fellow classmates do not do the assigned reading (on most days) but yours truly is always ontop of the material. So the professor decided to go into this long drawn out hypothetical and then he had some followup questions. When he got done, he turned towards me and asked, "so what are your thoughts?" I responded that I didn't really have any thoughts. He then responded, "you must have thoughts!" This pissed me off because I'm always participating & the one time I didn't respond to a question, he stayed on my back. So I responded, "I don't have anything to say and don't have any thoughts!" Then I turned to the rest of the class & asked, "do y'all have any thoughts?" What I really wanted to say was "WTF, when I say I don't have any thoughts, keep it moving."
Three years of cold-calling & having to come up with answers has become very old. The part of my brain that houses b.s. answers completely refuses to cooperate.
