Beards are untrustworthy

Many moons ago, in a poly far, far away...

A fearsome woman stood in front of a second year degree class, looked us straight in the eye and said,
“Men with facial hair are thought untrustworthy and a little devious”.

She claimed this came from 'recent research'. Golden rod like I said nothing, as did all that sat before her. Today I sit and await the joy or catastrophe that will be England's next football adventure and all I can remember of the truly 'fearsome' woman, are those few words.

Two terms of lectures and all I can remember is a load of 'male bovine genitalia'. Fat lot of good a degree education did me.

Just wondering what verbal diarrhoea you've left unchallenged?

Then again, maybe its the beard?:o
 
my problem when l was at college was l knew more than at least 3 of my teachers :D however one resented the fact and she used it as an excuse to pick on me by making me do things again because l didnt do it "her way" regardless of the fact that it looked the same when finished >.<, amazingly tho my sister went to the same college and when she had lectures with the same teacher she skipped them and still passed the computer section of her course to everyone's amazement lol...

in short, lm actually going through legal proceedings to sue that teacher because she refused to give me my qualification on the grounds l didnt do the work properly... now altho these proceedings havent started yet they should start moving when the proper authorities get the notice or something (lm still unsure as to where it will go but l'll be seeing an advisor soon who will let me know the ins and outs :p) however on the same note there was another doing the level 3 NVQ (who lm related to so she wasnt allowed to be the one who marked my work anyway) who saw no problems with my work..

makes you laugh at how petty teachers can be when you when their knowledge can be questioned and also put to shame by a pupil they are supposed to be teaching, err it was more the other way round tho since she kept on going the long way round making an agro of things.
 
Talking of teachers ...

At school we had one that used to go for a liquid lunch. He would then come to the double maths, open the book at a page, write the page number on the black board. Then sit at a desk and go to sleep for an hour and ten minutes. We had two years of that.

I'm surprised I can work out that 10 x 2 is 22.:rolleyes:

Someone recently told me (in all seriousness) that Steve McClaren is a really good manager - and this was AFTER the Israel match.

I couldn't challenge him because I was having difficulty breathing through the pain in my chest, caused by uncontrollable laughter.

Other classics from the same muppet (and all of them on Saturday night):

  • McClaren should pick Robbie Keane in place of baldy from Everton (probably a good point, except that Keane is currently the captain of Ireland!)
  • "The Scots haven't a chance of beating Italy tonight" - technically, this was true - they don't play Italy until later this week
  • Frank Lampard should be played as a striker (despite the fact that on current England form, he would miss the largest barn door in the world from 5 feet away, though he's hardly unique in that
  • San Marino will be a difficult game (I have a horrible feeling he could have a point given England's current form)
  • The FA should consider bringing Ericsson back - at least we played exciting foorball then :eek:
  • "I don't know why David Seaman was dropped from the England team, just because he plays in America now - that's racist"

And no, he wasn't a comedian (well, not a professional comedian anyway)

Despite the fact that England were abysmal, I haven't laughed so much for a long time. Today (monday, almost 2 days later) my sides still hurt.

heh l know lm not the best.. by a long shot, but been who l am and living in a small community all those years back my family had a bad name and well reputations can be problematic in short, l left school when l was about 12.. my schooling years are messed up so from there on lm mostly self taught..

so l think l have done pretty well considering.

Thank you and your friend for cheering me up, it almost made the memory of that match less depressing.

Tell him they are desperate for comedians in Iraq at the moment:D
