Day in the life of talking to a professor before a midterm:
"Nono..there are many variations to the answer. As I said, all of these concepts are subjective. There are many answers to the question....but mine is correct."

"I'm not testing you on memorization. I want you to understand the material rather than have you quote Algorithm 1 from the text. It's on Algorithm 2 btw."

"I wasn't aware your book talked about that."

"Is my midterm hard? Well....has anyone here ever taken one of my midterms?"
*dude raises hand*
"And how was it?"
dude: "no comment."
"No comment? Well....let's just say, bring a box of kleenex. I won't have any of you crying on my shoes. I lose more shoes that way than anything else."
