Watchers

Currently having an artistic/existential crisis because I just looked through my gallery and there's been so little stylistic improvement over the past couple of years. Admittedly, some of that is because of the type of stuff I choose to post here (there's a lot that I don't), and some of it's because I haven't had much time to draw at uni until this semester, but even leaving that aside... Man. This is just lame. I need to fix that shit.

So I surprised myself by being relieved that the Oxford comma will live another day.

I'm all about the Oxford commas, and would have continued using them whether or not it was officially correct anymore.

Together in arms, defending our bastion of punctuation to the bitter end. ...I like that.

I would just like to state that if I do not get a good mark from the psych prof who continuously talks down to his class like they're "not all there," I will be very cross.

Well, even if you don't, you can always contest the grade if you think it had to do with his condescension rather than the quality of your work. Or I could punch him?
(Tangentially related: I seem to have lost my fall semester abnormal psych notes, which I thought I'd kept- and with them, most of my drawings of Lee. Sad. I had a good professor, though...)

As cathartic as you punching him would be, I guess it isn't his fault that he missed his calling as some kind of motivational speaker. And it's another series of multiple-choice exams, so if I do badly it's all on my own overconfidence rather than him acting like he's teaching simpletons. My own overconfidence as a result of his teaching-simpletons attitude, but nonetheless my own overconfidence.
And this will sound petty, mostly because it is, but FUCKING FUCK THE MAN CANNOT LABEL GRAPHS.
(That is extremely sad. Possibly moreso, if you had a teacher who gave good note-taking material. Were the drawings of Lee scanned, or would that be the only copies of them gone?)

THAT ON ITS OWN DESERVES FACE-PUNCHING.
(Yeah, they were un-scanned sketches AND he was a great lecturer. He'd worked for years in the state mental health system, and had a lot of firsthand knowledge of the disorders we were discussing. I also related to him on a more personal level because he was very candid about discussing his own anxiety issues as they related to class topics, and as you know, I've struggled with severe anxiety for most of my life.)

There is an alcoholic beverage called the Sonic Screwdriver, why did I not know this.

That's awesome. What's in it (apart from vodka and orange juice)?
