My god was that you the whole time, I don't know whether to punch you in the mouth or buy you a beer, you bastard. I was railing against this guy for months, come to find out its you. Sweet jesus! Still, now it's funny that I know.

Hey, no harm done. You know, I was trying to exaggerate this type of person, but it's almost impossible to make them sound any crazier than they already are.

Does he seriously teach?

[ChipButty]

I'm flattered so many people are confused by my portrayal - no he doesn't, but he's based on many real life examples

[TheMeManeuverEi]

I'm actually working on a paper about avant garde/experimental film and I know much of what he says makes complete sense, but I saw how young he is and the way he works his arms and thought he didn't actually teach. And there's no classroom involvement... and then the name is absolutely hilarious.

[ChipButty]

Yeah, I had to give him one or two accurate things to say about film. Even a stopped watch is right twice a day.
