why the sea is boiling hot

[freckles_and_doubt]

Today's two most recent google search terms in my browser: "college impact theory" and "103 Ways to Annoy Lord Voldemort". This tells you absolutely everything you need to know about my working life. On the upside, this Harry Potter paper is taking vague conceptual shape. I darkly suspect we may actually be dealing with institutional climate theory.

In other news, if one more student panics his/her way through that door and turns out not to be clutching the relevant paperwork, I may find myself perpetrating spontaneous avada kedavra tests in a working environment.

This is a superb idea. Do it. Muchly. (says a student whose work record is far from perfect)

Am I to understand you're encouraging me to perform Unforgivable Curses on the undergraduatery? Shocking! And me trying to be all noble and restrained, too. Besides, Avada Kedavra is a bit extreme. Maybe a spot of Imperius. ("You will read the notices. You will obey the notices. You will put your apostrophes in the correct place.")

God, it could sort out this institution's more dire substrata more or less immediately. Memo to self, acquire wand.

This is possibly a better idea, mainly as it's a bit more legal than mass murder for turning in terrible essays. THough perhaps less amusing.

My understanding of the words "noble" and "restrained" appears to be being undercut with time at uni...
