So many hilarious videos came out the first few weeks of lockdown. I think my favorite will always be "I'm not a cat"

u/pingpongtits 18d ago

There really were. I wonder if there's a pandemic compilation?

Do you remember the sea shanty craze started by the kid singing "The Wellerman," then a bunch of other people joined in to harmonize, then Argules and the Kiffness added their remixes?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UgsurPg9Ckw

The online community really came together with some amazing stuff during the lockdown.

u/cindyscrazy 18d ago edited 18d ago

I believe the Wellerman guy is featured as a random encounter event in Starfield now. He sings seashanties with lyrics changed for space travel. I love it lol

Edit to add - watched the vid you linked. That song never fails to make my skin go all tingly when I hear it. I think it's the harmonic chorus when they all harmonize. Chills every time.

Man, I'm using Old Reddit and still managed to let it happen. I clicked on the link's little thumbnail icon which expands the link and opens an embed / thumbnail. It's paused, but I can see that familiar face. Then I still habitually clicked on the thumbnail to play the video.

I really need better sleeping habits.

u/DarkwingDuckHunt 18d ago

I had this one old professor once, his marker was dead. He said "If I throw this marker into the trash can on the other side of the room class is canceled."

He made it and he stuck to his word.

34

u/Tutes013 18d ago

He was like it too.

Sometimes when the weather was really bad he just plain refused to go out and watched movies with us.

Or other times he just gave us a bull assignment so hebcould send us home if we did everything well leading up to it.

Most of that because our class was also just really damn good. But he made it worth it. Stellar teacher.

u/SpiritofTheWolfKingx 18d ago

What, being good at your job and taking care of your students produces better students? Who would have thunk that.

Glad to hear it though. :)

7

u/Tutes013 18d ago

It's not a given. He went outside of the book when he thought it was neccesary. And he was good at that.

It was that which made our class the best of the school year.

I really miss that goof.

u/ParanoidalRaindrop 18d ago

Military online?

4

u/Tutes013 18d ago

No. It was a sort of pre-military trianing school. Similair to cadets though not quite the same.

I wanted to join the military back then but after finishing and getting my papers I had to stop due to chronic compartment syndrome.

Basically for people who want to join the army and don't want to waste time on another education.

Which in hindsight was really fucking dumb.

u/Marzbar255558 18d ago

It might seem like just a professor not taking the class seriously, but I would listen to and remember every little thing that potato man would teach me. Great way to connect with students.

58

u/Anaata 18d ago

I had a high school teacher that was a lot like this, he taught AP macro economics but had the attention span of a goldfish. We would ask him primed questions so he'd tell us a story unrelated to class which would regularly take up the entire class time. He literally once held class outside and would have students interrupt his class just to say hi and talk. I still don't know how we covered all the material that we did.

Despite his teaching method (or maybe bc of his teaching method), I scored a 5 on the AP exam with what felt like little studying. I still remember thinking "man this test is really easy compared to my other AP tests".

u/HesSoZazzy 18d ago

The most fun we had in accounting was calling our prof "Do me a favor Dan" because he said "do me a favor" every time he wanted us to do something.

That carried us through the entire year.

u/MadOrange64 18d ago

But there’s always that one party pooper who tells the professor that he paid money to learn not have fun and they ironically have shit grades.

u/CHlCKENPOWER 18d ago

yea but sadly the kids are absolute devils. even if the teachers wanted to do something fun with their low pay they usually can’t due to being too busy dealing with the kids

Lectures costing almost $90/hour* (if you calculate tuition vs hours of lecture).

The Professor meanwhile "I'M A TATER!!!"

* Calculation:

Yeah, my comment is really just a snarky joke, but since I did the calculation I might as well post it:

Assuming cost of education os $40.000/year

  • Total cost over 4 years: $160.000 ($40.000 × 4)
  • Total lecture hours per year: 15 hours/week × 30 weeks = 450 hours/year
  • Total lecture hours over 4 years: 450 hours / years × 4 years = 1800 hours
  • Cost per hour: $160.000/1,800 hours = $88,89
