I have this professor in college (initials: JDL; subject: environmental law) who considered himself as demi-god and a genius. Not for most of the class (including yours truly) who considered him as semi-crazy and an "it". He is a stanch loyalist/ally of the former strongman and called the former strongwoman as "ang maganda at mabangong ginang".
We were having a lesson on basic animal rights and protection when one of my classmates popped a question.This professor takes only one side. He is either "pro" or "anti". He doesn't answer on a case to case basis.
Classmate 1: Sir, you said that when attacked by an animal, a violent method to subdue will be the last resort. What if you are in a jungle and a big crocodile is about to attack you."
He allowed the entire class to participate and exchange views but basically divided into pro and anti violent methods only. When it was his turn to recap, this was his answer.
JDL:"You know what young man, you are such an I _ _ _ T. What on earth are you doing in the jungle in the first place.Don't you know that it's so dangerous to be there."
HUWAAT kind of answer is that. Then another classmate raised a question.
Classmate 2: "Does this non-violent approach to subdue an attacking animal, apply to all kinds?"
JDL: Of course dear, all species.
Classmate 2: What if it's a mosquito, carrying dengue or malaria virus? You mean we cannot swat and whack it up? I'll just let it bite me?
JDL: Well, that's a S _ _ _ _ D question. Of course the answer is obvious, I will gesture the lamok to move away and tell the creature "lamok huwag".
Oh crazy class. I went back to the dormitory with kabag! The positive side is I got a high grade by concurring with his craziness.
Anyway, my work colleague who calls himself "Mr. Swabe" (not Mr. Suwahe) was complaining about 2 weeks ago on mosquitoes buzzing around his cubicle. He whacked one and was shocked to see the size of the creature. See below:
jurassic mosquito "Lamokisaurus" |
Para daw siyang tinusok ng hiringgilya sa laki. Sometimes "etchus" din si Mr. Swabe, to prove his point.
The office distributed an air freshener with citronella.
Good thing I got bug spray-which is a non-violent approach to repel a lowly mosquito.

JDL must be related to a person i know (1 of the supposed members of the na-unsyaming truth commission . . uyyy, chika minute!) . . .he once asked: who owns the mosquitoes? uhh . . . duhh . . . sir, care ko?! swat them! bwahaha! - Z
