The Bully Business Professor
The asshat in an ascot quoted Foucault. He made faculty senate holy hell. I think he was in English, maybe History; I knew he wasn’t in athletics!
Anyway, motherfucker just loved the drone of his self-important voice. How about the dulcet tone of a head slap?
I snapped and pummeled him. An Engineering professor high-fived me before public safety came.
At my hearing, I learned he was old money, Ivy League—his mom and dad were philanthropists. He smirked when I got suspended.
Afterwards, I gave him a super wedgy and nasty pink belly.
That’s my story.
Paper or Plastic?

Gift
Matthew has a friend who works at NASA. His friend Kent is on the team that is launching a manned mission to Mars next week.
On the day of the launch with the help of Kent he is able to sneak his girlfriend Kim aboard the ship.
A few hours after the launch, Kim wakes up. She is wearing a spacesuit with a note posted on her chest.
She reads the note. "I know you really want to go to Mars. Love, Matthew."
Kim screams, “You idiot, I said I want to go to the bars, get your hearing checked!”
