      I went hunting and found OOP’s blog. There isn’t much more to the story, which I will transcribe here:

      until like LAST WEEK
      professor B publishes a paper that casually drops the word “husband”
      and obviously all the students are like “oh i didn’t know u were married!” because we read that shit like how white suburban mothers read People Magazine
      and shes like “yeah, it’s Professor A”
      and we all FLIPPED. THE FUCK. OUT
      we thought the framed picture of the two of them on professor A’s desk was ironic because hes that type of guy
      like, you gotta understand, these two have gotten into YELLING matches in hallways. these two refuse to go on trips with each other. but apparently they have a system where they quite LITERALLY leave all of their work at work and drive home in separate cars and literally NEVER work at home. it is SO funny

        This comedy lost me at ‘literally’, because that’s how I know I don’t need to invest more time on it. Hey Skippy! Learn another adverb, okay?

        I get that colleges are no longer failing papers with 3rd-grade spelling mistakes and comma splices at it ruins the uni’s bottom line. But I miss even when unis had just a little more pride in themselves.
