Yes, it's Friday.

Morning all. I've got a stupid amount of work today, including the entire essay on Threshold Concepts that I've been reading for all week (yes, even staff write things at the last minute), so there won't be time for blogging. Here's Ashes Central: they'll post the Over-by-Over link there soon, I would think.

So what about today's Friday Conundrum. I'm feeling slightly delirious and spent yesterday discussing Art and Morality with Zoot and others (on another post), so how about something a little more relaxed? What's the rudest thing anyone's said to you? My choices are a tie. My headmaster's university reference for me told them that I was going to fail my A-levels, that I was a troublemaker and that I didn't deserve a place anyway. I know this only because the kind man at Derby University who interviewed me said that I didn't sound anything like my reference and sneakily let me read it. The other contender is the cousin at my sister's wedding who plainly said that I'm so repulsive that I'm doomed to a solitary life (the actual words were 'well, romance isn't for everyone, is it?' after she noticed that I was attending alone).
