I like big BUTs, and I cannot lie.
Weak excuses do not fly.
A grand excuse puts to waste
All the accusations that I acted in haste.

a little boy is sitting at a desk with his hand on his chin and a sad look on his face . Alt: Spanky of "The Little Rascals", drumming his fingers as he waits.

The disappointing part of my lecture today:

"yada yada yada Unix operating systems, such as Linux and Macos", pronouncing the name of Apple's operating system as though it rhymes with "tacos".

And none of my students took the bait.

Jim Carrey of the (older) US version of "Whose Line is it Anyway?" He's holding a thumbs-up as the caption says, "Welcome to 'What Time is it Anyway?' Where the timezone is made up, and the clocks don't matter."

Why is it called Sea World and not Barnacle Bailey's Sea Circus?

If you don't want to depend on the name of the original file, replace the #embed line with
```
#embed __FILE__
```

Thanks to the #c23 #embed macro, I may have written the world's shortest #quine.
```c
#include<stdio.h>
int main(){puts((char[]){
#embed"q.c"
,0});}
```
(I doubt that I'm the first to do this)
We just need to politely ignore the extra `\n` injected by `puts`. Otherwise, replace `puts` with `printf`.

Three alpacas, two kushed and one on the ground with his hip sideways and forelegs out, in their pasture. They face each other like they're conferring.

The Klingon version of "The Princess Bride" must've been really weird.

Inigo: I do not mean to pry, but do you have four testicles by any chance?

Dread Pirate Roberts: Do you always begin conversations this way?

I girl I had a crush on didn't want to show her report card to her parents. I said I could get her a better one. This being shortly after "Wargames" came out, our classmates assumed I changed her grade in the computer system.

I just made a good forgery.

In the 8th grade I had a WHOLLY UNDESERVED reputation for being able to crack into the school's computer.

(It's the emphatic denial that helps to sell it.)

War is a continuation of pull-ups by other means.

Two alpacas eating hay near a gate. A red/brown alpaca is kushed by the hay, and a white alpaca is standing next to the hay and looking at the camera.

They've information vegetable, animal, and mineral,
They know the kings of England, and quote the fights historical
From Marathon to Waterloo, in order categorical;
They're very well acquainted, too, with matters mathematical,
They understand equations, both the simple and quadratical.

"Friends" is a beloved American sitcom that aired from 1994 to 2004, following six young adults—Rachel, Ross, Monica, Chandler, Joey, and Phoebe—living in New York City. The show explores their friendships, romances, careers, and personal growth over ten seasons.

A couple of decades ago, it was portable DVD players. When my son was a toddler, The Tigger Movie was his absolute favorite. We had a portable VHS player strapped to the back of the minivan's driver's seat. The longest 90 seconds in the history of eternities was the time it took to rewind the tape.

A screenshot from my textbook: When introducing quarter precision floating points, the first edition of this textbook stated that 8-bit floating point types are too small for any practical use. The second edition states instead that 8-bit floating point types are too small for most practical uses. NVIDIA, ARm, and Intel introduced FP8 in...

I've already been forced to acknowledge that 8-bit floating point types might, maybe, conceivably have a practical use outside of the classroom.

Dare I ask about Float4?

I've lost count of how often students turned in a solution they found on the internet--maybe with the proverbial serial numbers filed off, maybe not--and gave the excuse that they copied the code to help them learn.

No, you learn by mentally wrestling with the problem, not by pressing ctl-C,ctl-V.
