Why I Don't Watch Movies

Good movies cost too much emotionally.

Bad movies don't.

I can't waste myself on bad movies, and I can't kill myself over good movies, so I just opt out.

Hi, I'm Still Pissed Off

I just want to post a great example of benevolent sexism.

Here is what my direct supervisor told me in an email re: my contract renewal:

"Consider it a sort of hiatus--perhaps some time for you to deal with the things you want to work on."

The "things" in question happened to be panic attacks.  This is how he addressed those:

"I still get a bit anxious before my classes, but I can't imagine what it's like to have a full fledged panic attack."

Yeah, at least he "can't imagine," but, really?  Let's not compare panic attacks to performance anxiety.
