[[Computer lab. Professor approaches Ian, working on one of the computers.]] Professor: Ian, I think we have to talk. Ian: OK. Professor: I've been getting comments from my colleagues, and I think I might be the only professor in the school you haven't completely alienated. Ian: Really? [[Ian stops working to talk.]] Professor: One told me you called her a "blithering moron" on the first day of class. Ian: It slipped out when she was talking about the symbolism of Apple's default desktop image. And she doesn't like runes. [[Professor is exasperated, Ian tired.]] Professor: Ian, have you ever thought about being nice to your professors long enough to pass their classes? Ian: Faking respect wears me out.
