Dimpled Einstein (D.E.)

In his late 20s, he's tall, slim, agile and has dimpled cheeks. He teaches us DSP. I make very few personal references in my blog but this man just had to be written about in my blog for lack of a better and far-reaching medium.

The Dumb Fuck managed to rub me the wrong way and 110 other students as well. His highly questionable English has taken a turn for the worse this semester. If last year saw his sentences interspersed with "okay"s at the rate of 6-7 per min, this year has exposed us to his "listen carefully" before the beginning of every sentence.
And mind you, his source is almost always the internet; So much so, he recommended we use the site 'dspguru.com' to understand dsp better. What's the site's USP according to our Dimpled Einstein? The damn url contains the word "guru" in it.
However, his mispronunciations are the best thing in the world. I've listed some of the recurrent ones.

D.E. says:__________________It really means:

To add to this shit, he makes us take 1.5hr long tests designed to be written in 2.5hrs

It's Sunday morning and Xo woke up early to make breakfast-- Spicy scrambled eggs and sauteed mushrooms . Lovingly she calls up the stairs to Xo so as to wake him up.
Xo: Baby .. Breakfast's ready .. Wake up, honey
(No reply)
Xo: Sugarpop .. pumpkin pie .. Wake up
(No reply)
Xo: Come on down, sweetie pie, hot muffins .. !
(
Xo comes stomping down the stairs, indignant)
Xo: You Have No Right to lure me out of my sleep promising sweet treats!
(He walks into the kitchen closely followed by
Xo)
Xo: And you haven't made any!!
