    ETA: Thirty copies of practically the same report? I thought that was a journal?

    That and teaching. Which is what I and @JinShei do.

    I would wince for you, but I'm still too relieved that marking doesn't refer to something related to furries.

    You think a Skype call is bad, try doing it with a class of inattentive fifteen-year-olds.
    Now you may wince.

          I wrote weeks worth of asynchronous material for one group, went to check on it, and none had done any. Apparently I didn't tell them to...

          Whereas my other group is on it, doing all asynchronous and in person meetings. I got 20 emails from one girl on one day. They are keen and working their hearts out.

          I stomped around the house shouting fucking fuckers.

                  Now that depends on which part of England you're from/in. Middle-class in Carlisle is very different to middle-class in Kent.

                              Oh fucking well.
