"It's a lot of balls in the air." Haha what? Yup this comment really happened, and by a professor too! It was one of those comments that had nothing to do with the subject matter but was beyond funny. When your in college you don't really expect teachers to use profanity or make vulgar comments because you are so used to your teachers in grade school holding their tongue. But when they do it always catches the class off guard and makes people giggle.
Last semester in my night class my professor wanted to show us a YouTube video about how a vodka brand changed their design on a bottle. As he is looking for the video on YouTube, he comes across a video of a man chugging a whole bottle of vodka. Instead of picking the video we were supposed to watch, he proceeds to click on the video of the man chugging vodka. I was sitting there thinking "is this really happening right now. My teacher is showing the whole class a video of a man downing a whole bottle of vodka in less than a minute." Not going to lie the video was really funny.
About a week and a half ago my English professor was going on a rant about her children. She was talking about her daughter who usually shops at Boscovs and how the clothing changes drastically as you go through the sections. It goes "little girl, little girl, slutsville!!!!" Seriously though thinking about it, the clothing choices for girls go from cute and frilly to sparkly and cropped. The things that teenage girls wear now-a-days are a little ridiculous. They wear cropped tops, short shorts, blingy(sparkly) clothing. I would never be allowed to walk out of the house if I wore something like that when I was a teenager. It never ceases to amaze me what some parents let their kids get away with. I guess neither was my teacher or else she wouldn't have made that comment.
"It's a lot of balls in the air," seriously that comment was a lot to take in early in the morning. The only thing the teacher was trying to do was decide if the class was going to make their own groups or if he should make them. He was going on about the different choices we could have for a group project and out of nowhere he says this. It doesn't surprise me anymore from this professor. I have had him since freshman year in college and everything he does isn't a shocker anymore. One time freshman year he laid across one of the tables to see if they were all of the same length. No big deal, everyone does that!

Teachers are real people too and can act just as crazy and be as random as the rest of us. You really do have to pay attention to what people say or do because a lot of it gets overlooked.
