OK, so I'm hanging out here in the Lounge looking at kitteh pics and watching TV . . .

[Brigid]

When I should be reading my history assignment. What's wrong with this picture?

1. Get to work, slacker!

I know the feeling. I've got homework, too. A test for one of my online classes is also available starting tomorrow.

[Brigid]

2. I got the reading done.

[Tobin S.]

3. Good deal. Have you ever taken a class online?

My online classes involve a school message board. They can be frustrating because some moran can disagree with you with bogosity (<---that's a word!) and you can't call the moran a moran. You have to politely disagree while bringing in links to facts from the web and the text to support your side. Yeah, but the bastard is still a moran.

[Brigid]

4. No, I haven't tried that.

But my school does have them, of course. BTW, what does "bogosity" mean?

[Tobin S.]

5. I thought I was just making it up

as the degree to which something is bogus. It turns out that according to dictionary.com that's exactly what it means, although it is considered slang. All this collegin' and stuff is starting to pay off.

7. Ya learn something new every day.

[Agschmid]

6. Sounds right to me... is your assignment on...

the history of the domestication of house cats per chance?

[Brigid]

8. Nope.

It's on the development of the New England, Middle, Chesapeake, and Southern Colonies from 1700-1763.

9. That you're not getting drunk as well. Duh. (nt)

[kentauros]

10. What's wrong is that

you didn't take the class "History of Kitteh Pictures on Television"

[LiberalEsto]

11. Why are you being plagued with history assignments?

Cast off thy shackles!
