I’m glad “wino” got in the list. I was afraid that you might think I was being flippant. I assure you, I’m tired of the hoity-toity “expressivist” set pretending to “keep it real.”

Winos are not amused at being part of your snooty Marxist parade. Now, if you had a panel on “The Stasis of PBR,” or “Epideictic Encounters with Ripple: How Great Is Your Buzz?” I might be inclined to show up.

Clearly, I’ve been away from the profession for a while.

What ChrisTheRed said. Although the one that really baffles me is “carrots.”

“Knitty-gritty” and “socks” would seem to go together quite readily, at least to this knitter. Hmm: “Deconstructing Knitty-gritty Praxis: Punk Rock Socks as a Signifier of Queer Otherness”?

I’ll do a workshop on the “Soapy Student-Centered Dynamics of the Teaching Textualties of Socks.” Such is my pedagogical stance.

Urinal stain? Really?

Frisky!

I admit I didn’t respond to this survey, b/c as your potential co-panelist, I was afraid I would somehow invalidate the results. Please pay no attention to me. I’ve been eating a lot of chocolate.

Anyway, this is awesome. Maybe a theme for our panel could be re-visitings of tired terms and/or arguments for the relevance to old, tired ideas OF groovy new terms?

So, for example, I could make an argument for how a paper on fisting / disability / whatever actually does help us learn more about (YAWN) critical thinking.
