So yesterday I was standing in front of a urinal, urinating, when Gary Herrigel, my Sosc teacher, walks to the urinal beside me, and says "Hello."

"Hello, Mr. Herrigel," I say. Then comes an awkward pause, before I continue: "I've never talked to a teacher at a urinal before."

"Well, it all goes to show that we are naturally equal."

I could be really horrible and dirty here and make a comment about some being more equal than others. But I'll just allude to it, so it gets implanted in your brain but I escape any actual insinuation.

This guy was a Johnnie, wasn't he?

So relieved to see that, contrary to reports, University of Chicago students and teachers still use "Mister" (and preumably "Ms") to address one another. Even while pissing.

I have no idea who you are. My habit of calling any teacher at this institution "Mr." or "Ms." came, however, from a year at St John's. Most people here are worse about it.
