My memory is faint and distorted but I'll give it a go:

Linguistics lecturer:

"We should head to the uni bar at the end of the semester and get smashed.
Oops.
In the name of linguistics.
We as in everyone inclusive including me."

Commentary: That would be cool, dawg.



Math 1A Calculus tutor:

He tries to pronounce sec2x

"You know that the derivative of tan x is sex, sex squared, *stutters more*, I mean sec squared, secant squared.
Sex is the last thing on my mind."

Commentary: Sure...



Comp for Engineers lecturer:

"Whoever doesn't conform to (this) should be ... shot"

Commentary: Harsh, I wouldn't be surprised if he kept a Remington M870 under his pillow.

Me: (Holding a hammer) Sir I'm trying to break apart the atoms in this piece of Iron.

Demonstrator: That won't work, use this (hands me a chisel)

i remember one of my accounting lecturers was discussing the importance of ethics in an accounting setting, and also how your job could be on the line if you don't do the right thing


then he mentioned that he worked for some big corporation where he was making lots of $$$ but now he works as a lecturer. then he asked the class, why do you think im now a lecturer?

The tutor was a female post-graduate student. After she said it, the whole class was trying really hard not to laugh but eventually someone bursted out laughing. Then she admit her mistake, laughed at herself and said it was so embarassing for her. And oh in case the guys wanted to know, yes she was hot.

in an ecology lecture this morning, talking about interactions between organisms, and he was on the topic of fungi:
"it's rather amusing come autumn every year when quite a few magic mushrooms sprout up right next to the vice-chancellor's parking space here on campus...*pause* of course, I didn't just tell you that magic mushrooms are growing next to the vice chancellory."

we lol'd.

has anyone got shaun disney as a tutor? ive got him and our class is a little bit shy so people rarely answer his questions which have led to some interesting remarks...

"So you have no more questions you want to ask me? *silence* We'll I'm a skeptical person by nature so I'm going to do some anyway"

*writes up a quetion* "What is the answer to this question? *again silence. for about 15-20 seconds this time* Well you all seem to think that the answer is prayer"

"No more questions then? Well then I'm just doing to indulge myself by doing question 20 for you"

"Is this true or false?" *silence* "I maintain my stance that this is not a difficult question to answer"

"I dont like this question about Sherlock Holmes. I prefer contemporary drama. who here has read sherlock holmes?..." cant remember the rest but he kept complaining about it.

*in the middle of doing a problem "no im not going to write 'i.e.' cause none of you know what it really means"

great tutor but his little remarks are just the best.
