Re: Professor gives rude comments on paper, my response?
i had a professor last semester who would write comments like that, but not in a mean spirited way. he was a real nice guy that just was honest about things that needed improvement. everybody, even those who did really well, got comments that would seem "rude" on their face, but really he was not being rude at all; it was just his (semi)sarcastic style.
for example, i did really well on one assignment (i think i got the top grade in the class for that one), but there were numerous times when when he'd circle a sentence that was poorly worded and write something like:
"this really sucks"
or
"haha this sentence is soooo confusing. are you trying to torture me?"
obviously if i didn't know they guy i'd think "what a dick!"...but if you knew him, you'd know not to get offended by the comments at all. (it helped that he would also give plenty of positive feedback for things that you did well.)
anyways, i don't know if OP's prof is the same. it's very possible he's just a dick, but i would ignore it...sex w/ wife or daughter is an intriguing option, however
