Ambitious, brilliant next-level moderating. Good luck.

Blue Kitty · « **Reply #2 on:** 11 Nov 2010, 13:08 »

Don't we have a thread to be angry at random people?

Buttfranklin · « **Reply #3 on:** 11 Nov 2010, 14:12 »

Not for banning purposes, though.

David_Dovey · « **Reply #4 on:** 11 Nov 2010, 15:28 »

I like where this thread is going

Trollstormur · « **Reply #5 on:** 11 Nov 2010, 15:29 »

No I saw someone on this forum in my class

You sure it wasn't a comic discussion person? Idaho tends to get the weird people.

jhocking · « **Reply #9 on:** 12 Nov 2010, 03:53 »

I had to look at a map to remember where Idaho is. I had no idea.

The only Anthro class I ever took was taught by Dr. House. (Not the cool, sardonic TV personality either) Sorry.

Dimmukane · « **Reply #12 on:** 12 Nov 2010, 17:51 »

My only anthro professor was this spindly lady whose name I forgot and reminded me vaguely of some actress I'd seen in a 70's movie somewhere.

Allybee · « **Reply #13 on:** 12 Nov 2010, 18:09 »

my anthro professor is peruvian, stylish and brilliant. she's awesome.

Blue Kitty · « **Reply #14 on:** 12 Nov 2010, 18:59 »

My anthro professor was a white woman of average build who had a co-worker that was a cross dresser

Thomas Edison · « **Reply #15 on:** 12 Nov 2010, 19:23 »

My anthro professor was nonexistant.

Wasteroo · « **Reply #16 on:** 12 Nov 2010, 20:07 »

my anthro professor is a butch lady with frizzy hair who wears mom jeans and khaki button ups and loves talking about her visits to the Congo to study monkeys (she's also the biological anthropology professor)

Tom · « **Reply #17 on:** 12 Nov 2010, 23:14 »

My zoology/evolutionary biology lecturer was pretty musch the same.

Liz · « **Reply #18 on:** 13 Nov 2010, 07:46 »

My anthropology professor was in a National Geographic special.

WHAT NOW.

messeduplilkid · « **Reply #19 on:** 13 Nov 2010, 10:51 »

The more posts we have, the more suspense builds... But then some little old Idaho post will come as a "me" and we'll all miss it.

My anthropology was an apologist.

snalin · « **Reply #20 on:** 13 Nov 2010, 11:52 »

Wait, have I been reading a forum filled with only anthropology majors these last three years?

snalin · « **Reply #21 on:** 13 Nov 2010, 11:53 »

Shhhhhhhiiiii..

StaedlerMars · « **Reply #22 on:** 13 Nov 2010, 11:54 »

Yeah dudes what is up with that, people taking anthropology? Like, I have spent four years at uni not meeting anyone who does anthropology and suddenly everybody and their dog does anthropology.

Liz · « **Reply #23 on:** 13 Nov 2010, 12:24 »

I have a degree in anthropology!

So far it has got me some hugs and high fives.

A Wet Helmet · « **Reply #24 on:** 13 Nov 2010, 12:57 »

I would hug anyone who a) told me they had a degree in anthropology and b) wished to be hugged.

Lines · « **Reply #25 on:** 13 Nov 2010, 12:58 »

I do not have a degree in anthropology nor did I ever take a class in it. I feel left out now.

David_Dovey · « **Reply #26 on:** 13 Nov 2010, 13:09 »

I would hug Liz

Metope · « **Reply #27 on:** 13 Nov 2010, 13:11 »

I hugged Liz before she even had her degree.

I'm just taking one class to try it out. I love the professor and I find some of the material interesting but overall I do not like anthropology as a discipline. not really that down to talk about the other.

Dazed · « **Reply #29 on:** 13 Nov 2010, 14:35 »

I took an anthro class once. It was with a French-Algerian woman and an Indian woman teaching it. It was pretty good, also incredibly depressing.

StaedlerMars · « **Reply #30 on:** 13 Nov 2010, 14:42 »

Suddenly my brother is thinking of switching his degree to anthropology.

But more importantly, this thread made me realise that there is a new Community episode out, so yeah. Thanks dude in dr zikers anthro class!

LeeC · « **Reply #31 on:** 13 Nov 2010, 15:56 »

Im an anthro major so i have 3

my cultural anthro professor- Is like a slightly toned down Teddy Roosevelt.

my archaeology prof: looks like the lead singer from flogging molly

and my bio anthro prof: is a black lady with dreadlocks.

I love UMD.

tania · « **Reply #32 on:** 13 Nov 2010, 16:17 »

sorry to break it to you all but every single one of you fucked up massively by not majoring in criminology aka obviously the best social science ever

try to enjoy your lame cultural shit anyway i guess, i'll be over here learning about crimes

Barmymoo · « **Reply #33 on:** 13 Nov 2010, 16:48 »

I don't even know what anthropology is (I know what it means but how do you study it?) but I am/was taking a criminology class.

Radical AC · « **Reply #34 on:** 13 Nov 2010, 17:28 »

One of my majors is political science. So, I get to study how to get the people you worked so hard to gather evidence against off on a technicality for vastly more money and prestige. (My other major is biochemistry because I hate those people I just described and would rather be a doctor)

I go to the same uni as Troll and know the prof he is talking about. But, it isn't me. Kind of curious if I know them, though...

This thread has made me want to take an anthropology course!

Too bad it wouldn't count toward my major.

Drill King · « **Reply #39 on:** 14 Nov 2010, 07:59 »

I read books about that sorta stuff something?

Slick · « **Reply #40 on:** 14 Nov 2010, 08:06 »

PEI is kind of an odd, socially conservative place. My mom was working with a younger nurse at the hospital, probably around my age, who was telling her how she took a course in university that she "didn't believe in but thought it was interesting anyways".
She was talking about an anthropology course.

anthropology is the study of humans.

its broken down into 3/4 mediums

cultural anthropology - you study different cultures (like living with tribal people in africa)

archeology - indiana jones or GTFO

bio anthropology - study human remains/evolution (also hunts bigfoot)

and arguably linguistics.

SirJuggles · « **Reply #42 on:** 15 Nov 2010, 00:40 »

My anthropology teacher was unremarkable, but my TA was a large goatee'd man who wore punk rock beanies and devoted the majority of the class time to opening our minds to the potentials of lucid dreaming.

Snuffletrout · « **Reply #43 on:** 15 Nov 2010, 01:36 »

So, which one of you is Bones?

valley_parade · « **Reply #44 on:** 15 Nov 2010, 09:08 »

None of them. They're all too engulfed in pop-culture.

calenlass · « **Reply #45 on:** 15 Nov 2010, 11:25 »

I am sort of double majoring in Anthropology and Modern Languages and Culture, since my uni doesn't have a Linguistics degree. This means I am basically majoring in cultural anthropology and Spanish, with a minor in German and possibly another in Japanese.

Also I am minoring in Dance, because otherwise I cannot take dance classes at my school.

Next semester my anthro classes will be Forensic Anthropology, the FA lab, and Linguistic Anthropology II. Woo!

Starting in January I am doing a certificate in social sciences and then hopefully studying anthropology at Southampton uni.

What is up with this forum

Barmymoo · « **Reply #48 on:** 16 Nov 2010, 04:57 »

Perhaps, in all seriousness, people are more likely to be on a forum like this one due to a genuine interest in people as an amorphous mass and as individuals. Most of what we talk about is daily life and aspects of personality (like what makes us laugh, what we wear, who we hang out with and date). So maybe it is a statistical bias created by the nature of the forum itself? Other forums probably have more natural scientists and mathematicians.

calenlass · « **Reply #49 on:** 16 Nov 2010, 12:06 »

Well, I am actually only doing Linguistics because it is easy, I am more than 75% finished with my degree, and because I couldn't pass Organic Chem. Otherwise I would be a lab rat somewhere staring at fishies all day, dreaming of deep sea submersibles and Dumbo.

THESE FORUMS NOW CLOSED (read only)
