I am confused - do people write down exactly what their professors say and then flag it somehow as funny or cute? How do you all have all these quotes? I think it's weird.

I used to create a section at the bottom of my notes labeled "Professor Quotes." Then during class, whenever I heard something funny, witty, silly, or sad, I'd recreate it in that section as best as I could. Often I'd be corrected by those around me, and sometimes even here in the comments.

That's exactly what I did, professor quotes heading, and all.

Creepy.

  1. Prof T*ni, Torts:
    "I am like that little Japanese monkey!"

    And someone else is going to have to come through with the rest of that quote, because I was laughing too hard to hear anything for the next couple minutes.
