The Grading Effect: Three Vignettes.

Excerpt of a conversation between myself and a peer in the department library.
JJ: What's going on?
Me: Oh, I'm discovering all kinds of interesting things about myself.
JJ: Like what?
Me: Like the fact that when it comes to grading, I am a total bitch.
JJ: How is that different from any other aspect of your life?

Excerpt of a test I graded this evening.
"Shamanism is the religion of the Shaman People."

Excerpt of hilarity between myself and my friend, B., upon grading the above.
Me: The Shaman People needs to be a band name.
B: Yes, but it really ought to be "Someone" and the Shaman People.
In chorus: LADY DAI AND THE SHAMAN PEOPLE!!
