All term, several of us in one class have been requesting that our marks get posted on Blackboard. Multiple times. He's no luddite; he's posted all of our lecture Powerpoints, has a links page, and custom background.

He keeps saying he will. Our final is on Thursday. Not a single grade has been posted. What the hell? This is his only class! I hate not having my marks available.

Blackboard is a really awful system and I hate it.

Also, in my Moral Philosophy class (Ugh) during a class 'debate' about voluntary euthanasia on of the guys arguing against it brought up an absolutely terrible metaphor comparing voluntary euthanasia to giving paedophiles child-shaped sex dolls. What a goddamn trainwreck.

Also, the student site isn't letting me change my courses at all so now I have to waste a week getting a few of them changed to something relevant.

In a similar vein, why must every class have a student who feels the need to make comments on everything the professor says, as if it's a personal conversation and not a lecture? And it's almost always to refute a commonly-accepted theory or interpretation with some poorly thought out (or straight-up idiotic) idea.

There's a dude in more than half of my courses that does this, except he makes awful jokes and brings up vaguely-at-best connected news stories. Ugh.

It's a lot easier to throw on some lovely sweatpants and a hoodie over your pajamas than to put on actual pants.

My Global Economics professor takes every opportunity to rag on socialism, the Chinese and Russia, while glorifying Regan and other similar politicians.

We're Canadian.

E: Like, it isn't even his politics that bug me, it's that he constantly brings them up in unrelated lessons.

Blackboard is an incredibly lovely service with an increasingly obtuse interface.
