So...this sucks.
Well, as most people know I'm doing a Java course in uni at the moment. Here's the deal, we have 2 professors, 1 of which gives the lectures and one who teaches the workshops (workshops are for people struggling, so not me of course, I'm too 1337)

Anyway, one of them is a dude, and one is a lady (old-ish unattractive lady to clarify), the dude has been our lecturer so far, and he's pretty rad. He knows his shit, and is really concise at explaining things and has a sense of humor, especially when it comes to pwning dumb bitches, overall a good teacher.

Now, here's the deal, we just got through midsemester exams and now they are doing a changeup, the workshop lady is becoming the lecturer and our old lecturer is doing the workshops.

The lady is a completely different story, she seems like she probably knows her shit, but sucks at explaining everything, and has a really annoying way of teaching. She also has this habit of reading acronyms as words (fucking annoying) for example

GUI - she pronounces Gooey (as in, "this goo is sure gooey")
ASCII - she pronounces Asky

just makes me want to shoot myself in the dick listening to her lecture. 'cos it's the second half of semester i might actually encounter shit I haven't done before, in which case I'd prefer a lecturer who could actually teach well.

Just thought I'd bitch and moan to you guys.

As a sidenote, got a distinction on my Java midsemester (get on my level)
Adapt to her teaching method you misogynistic douche.

Just teasing.
Do her Jason. Milfs for the win
Write an application to the head of your department. That's what I did to change my programming lecturer lol ;]

Ehmm that's normal? (at least here in the states it is)... what would you call it? Gee-You-Eye? A-Ass-Cee-Eye-Eye?

I always have heard it said Gee You Eye haha, everyone in the lecture started laughing when she said gooey. Maybe she's from outside of Australia We don't take too kindly to foreigners
lol always fun to hear how people pronounce stuff...
usually i've dealt with UI = You Eye, while GUI = Gooey, and I've heard GUID be pronounced both ways (Gee-you-eye-dee, and 'gooeyd'/goo-id)
Of course if she says: 'Ask-eye' instead of 'as-key' she's totally crazy

Haha I don't even know how I'd say GUID and stuff aloud, I don't really talk programming with anyone IRL It's one of those word associations your brain makes so whenever you see it you sort of just glance over it without really reading it properly.

Weird.

Felt the same way here at me college when a bunch of profs pronounced it the same way. It sounded odd the first time around, but then got used to it.

Somewhat related youtube video of CSI that gets me every time.



HAHAHA
The GUI i made is so win it made my dick gooey
