"...but you still get a gold star and first pick of toys for playtime."

The professor is lecturing about the Drury Lane Theatre. A girl puts up her hand.

Girl: Drury Lane, isn't that where the Muffin Man lives?
Prof: That has nothing to do with what I'm talking about.

If she was trying to be funny, then this is stupid, because it amounts to a recount of a lame joke. If she legitimately thought it had something to do with the muffin man, then it would be funny because of her stupidity. Please clarify, so that I may then decide on whether this is or is not funny, and if the former, belatedly chortle in my joy.

English majors are dumb. The only smart people on campus are at the RICHARD IVEY SCHOOL OF BUSINESS. Law or engineering might have a few smart people, too.

Ivey are brain dead drones with the same agenda and incessant need to convince others and themselves that they are worth anything.

Those "drones" will soon be quite happy to give you an order at the McDonald's drive-thru from their BMWs.

Right, because if you're not in Ivey, you're definitely not in medicine, or law, or any other better faculty at Western, and you'll obviously be taking a drone's order at Mickey D's..

The MBA program; you pay a bit of money and they give you the answers. It's all case based, and no real knowledge. Calling it grad school is just wrong and an insult to everyone doing real research.

clearly all of you are victims of an unfair patriarchal system. otherwise you would realize that the true value of education lies in a women's studies degree.

What does this all have to do with anything? :)

Being an eyewitness to these happenings, I can tell you that it was more for laughs than anything. She was right, of course. It made for a good laugh though.
