I was just having an animated conversation with some friends before class, when suddenly, something disgustingly obscene happened:
friend: “What are you doing (in that picture)?”
me: “I think I’m grabbing my balls.”
friend: “hah”
lady: “heyyy, who do you think you are?!”
I spin around, some college-age woman had brought her 5-7 year old kid. This lady is not in my class, she just came into the editing lab to check her myspace.
Part of me feels bad that I didn’t notice the little kid there. The rest of me said “oh, excuse me, I thought I was in a college classroom where we screen obscene art films.” The lady left, child in tow.
I’m conflicted. I hope somebody learned something.
