ET always sort of creeped me out as well, to be honest. Though since I was a languages/linguistics major, his real sin in my eyes was to somehow realize that the word "phone" can be used as both a noun and a verb (what? You mean all languages don't do that?) Sorry, that's just the sort of thing I tend to nitpick - [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img].

Professor Gollum, ugh. What did he do if you failed a test? (Sitting there at your desk, writing in one of those blue books, sweating bullets while hearing your professor hissing "Is it nice? Is it tasty? Is it scrumptiously crunchable?") Or did he do something different?
