Text: Also, y'all missed English lunch during which [student] corrected Kerry for saying octopuses instead of octopi, and it was like Kerry had been training her whole life for a student to make that mistake. Total lay-up, and my favorite part of the day. Merriam-Webster Merriam-Webster O @MerriamWebster Happy World Octopus Day! octopi = from the belief that words of Latin origin should have Latin endings octopuses = an English ending to match its adoption as an English words octopodes = from the belief that bc 'octopus' is originally Greek, it should have a Greek ending

me: so octopuses…

student: do you mean octopi?

other professor: oh no you didn’t

student: I TAKE IT BACK

me: so, in English, we borrow not only WORDS, but MORPHOLOGIES, and since octopus is a Greek word borrowed into Latin borrowed into English…

We were reading that older dick story today!!

Shoutout to the student who covered her face and squealed when someone giving a summary said “Lancelot came late”

(We’re not 100% sure it’s the same damsel, but we are choosing to believe it is because it makes the story funnier)

my students: wait, so this damsel is the same one?? just following Lancelot around?? he does ONE THING for her and she STALKS that mofo

me: listen, we’ve all done weird things for crushes. I got an MA in Early Brit Lit, and now I’m teaching this class so

The words “weirdly cozy rustic dentist” in the style Of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles logo

And music from the early 1990’s!

Apparently I am experiencing a great deal of stress for some reason??? And that’s why I am breaking my teeth??

Can’t possibly figure out what it might be

A log cabin like living room with cozy couches and big country rustic log cabin vibes. The table has a wooden goose on it. Obvs.

Hello, I am at the weirdly cozy rustic dentist

It was a study on the Trad market, so hopefully AI will collapse before I have to find out lol

As it was written, etc.

Alanis once said - "it's like 10,000 frogs when all you need is a goose"

(we have a small pond in our yard, it’s not unexpected, it’s just very loud and funny 😂)

My leg is not good or I would go outside and record them for you
