Lost treasure

Ah, memories. Found this treasure in the email archives from a class last spring. Thank gawd for chat.

We tried. We really did. Made it 1.5 hours (class was 3 hours), then the torture became unbearable. Researchers should not even try to teach.

C:
endless yammering
yet nothing is being said
alcohol daydreams

M:
Ice cold meat locker
More inaudible rubbish
Ice cream save me now

C:
oh screw the ice cream
this calls for serious booze
vodka gimlet please

why such a cold room
freeze students to submission
no attention span

M:
Hard core prescriptions
Alcohol and cigarettes
No Intervention

C:
cookie in pocket
an unexpected surprise
eat now or later?

M:
WTF is this?
He keeps saying "binary"
The point evades me.

C:
oh there is no point
existential head banging
keep thumping noise down

M:
Eat out of boredom
Eat to avoid this lecture
Eat it this instant.

C:
too old for boozing
thought my drinking days were done
must reconsider
