No. Absolutely not. I will not be a party to the slaughter of innocent teacups. *stamps foot* [Razz]

Would it make you feel better if they were naughty teacups?

They weren't, but I can say they were if it makes you feel better.

Naughty teacups? Hmm. How, exactly, were they naughty? And more to the point, why would you want to slaughter naughty teacups? I thought naughty teacups would be more fun to have around? [Razz]

I am so tempted to post a link to a picture of a naughty teacup.

With David Duchovny.

But I won't. Because I'm at work. And because it would violate the TOS.

That would amuse me to no end.

Statistics test is over. Woke up two hours late and nearly missed the bus. Another exam in two hours. This one's on how to run factories.

Yay, finals.

I saw this thread, and immediately thought "Boring people", but then realized I wasn't good with it, so it kind of killed my theory. I imagine it would have been more fun just to kill the teacups.

NEWS FLASH: Governor Schwarzeneger is meeting with lawyers in the "Naughty Tea Cup" case. The Lawyers, and several second rate hollywood stars, are arguing that the Naughty Tea Cup has written on several children's napkins good inspirational messages about how being nice is so much better than being naughty. As a result of this apparent change of Tea Cup heart, the offending Tea Cup (who still claims never to have been that naughty in the first place) requests not to be killed.

*reminds self to google the naughty teacup picture Icky mentioned when she gets home from work*

Posted by mackillian (Member # 586) on :

Is it bad if I know exactly what picture Icky talked about?

Posted by kojabu (Member # 8042) on :

How'd the exam go?

Posted by TheHumanTarget (Member # 7129) on :

Did you know that almost half of all statistics are made up?

Posted by smitty (Member # 8855) on :

The good ones, anyway.

Right there with ya, Mac. [Smile]

I do know that picture, and I'm not sure whether I should be ashamed that I know it, embarrassed that I know it, or proud of myself that I know it.

I'm so confused. [Angst]

kojabu, it was pretty much a nightmare. He made the exam far too long; most of the class didn't finish on time and had to be given an extra twenty minutes, which was the longest we could stay in the classroom because there was another class coming in.

I didn't even get to answer two problems. [Wall Bash]

Next, as I said, is the "How to run a factory" exam. I hate how to run a factory class.

On the plus side, after today, I only have two more exams. One should be very easy and is at 1:45pm tomorrow, and the other will be somewhat more difficult and isn't until 8:30am Thursday. And I have to make sure I turn in my final paper for philosophy by Thursday.
