Eh, Brody has treated Jessica like dirt and she doesn't even know the extent of it. He disappears at random to have sex with a CIA agent and when he's not doing that, he's hanging out with the world's most wanted man. Jessica doesn't see him for days on end. In a vacuum, Mike is sleazy, but with all the context we…

Saw 'Life of Pi' this weekend and loved it. I am a sucker for letting-go-is-sort-of-hard stories and thus disregarded any of the possible problems I had with the film because emotional human. I really really want to see 'Lincoln,' but I'm guessing that's not coming to China any time soon…

During my undergraduate, I was hooked on Tony's Pizza Pouches. They aren't as "good" as Hot Pockets, but they were usually 2 for $1 at the nearest grocery store. I could get four boxes of those for the price of one package of Hot Pockets. When I went to graduate school, I migrated to Totino's Party Pizza, again…

Normally, Thanksgiving is all about football and beer for me (and I suppose the whole spending-time-with-family thing is something), but because I moved to China for work in September, the football is going to be on at abnormal times. Being a sports obsessive, you never realize just how much you are accustomed to…

Sadly, I never found him funny on SNL and I will probably choose not to watch this soon-to-be-canceled show.

I get why some people are down on this season a little (implausibility issues), but holy shit, that was intense episode. It felt like anybody could crack at any moment.

Oh how I loathe Abi. It is fun to see everything fall apart on her. She's completely toxic. The only surprising thing to me is that Lisa still has some bizarre loyalty to a former tribe that basically treated her like flotsam. I get loyalty, playing true to your morals, blah blah blah, but doesn't Destroying Evil…

Re: Evaluations. @avclub-85bd06050f1868adf468605465df26f8:disqus , you are vastly simplifying evaluations. Some students do evaluate on superficial things, some do not. I have taught enough classes to know the difference between a superficial evaluation and a thoughtful one. These are written evaluations, not…

No offense, but you don't have the slightest idea as to how I teach my classes or what my teaching style is like. It's not a "dick move" to make a joke. Give the students more credit than that. I am a very open teacher and I am EXTREMELY good at connecting with students on their level. The vast majority of…

I am a great teacher—student evaluations and post-semester e-mails from students and such have consistently indicated as much. Now, you can probably argue that I am a bad human being, but that's never really bothered me.
