Predatory Word-Play

The holidays provide an opportunity to hear how other people are getting on in other courses. This is one of the odder experiences recounted to me over the past week.

A nerdy professor had tapped into his supreme talent for making nerdy jokes to seduce women, he knew what he was and was no longer embarrassed by it. When a female colleague would enter the lecture theatre he would awkwardly lurk in a corner until they left and then make some odd joke about it.

He invited some of the female students to come to his rooms for coffee if they were having difficulty with any of the material he was teaching. One did. The appointment was at eleven, she entered a room where books and dust fought for space on shelves. They covered a few pleasantries and then it was time to get to work. Midway through he glanced wolfishly at her and slowly pronounced,

“Yes, it can be hard to get to grips with…ah… CLITerature.”

He stared at her intently, wanting a reaction. She continued with the discussion and then got the hell out of there.
