The good thing about being a senior in college is that you get to take classes that are interesting. This quarter I'm taking a class from my favorite professor, The Ecology of Human Variation. He's hysterical and luckily for both of us there is a girl in the class who's intelligence I'm questioning. Here is a blip from class today. Enjoy. We were making a chart about how humans use their energy and we had "reproduction" under an activity and then our teacher put it as it's own category to represent sexual maturation. This is the conversation that followed.
(I copied that picture exactly from the white board.)
Student: "but you already have that under 'activities'."
Teacher: "Think about it now. The activity part of reproduction is...going to the sock-hop..."
*laughter*
Girl: "What about socialization? I mean, humans have to socialize."
Teacher: "Well, that would be this..." (He puts a star next to 'reproduction' in the activities section)
*lull in conversation*
Girl: "What about grooming?!"
Teacher: (Puts a dot next to 'reproduction').
*laughter*
She was lost.
