  Hott or Nott?
During the course of our Opening of School Meetings yesterday, I had to listen to the following phrase, invoked without irony, at least three times:

Brags and Snags

When I was not attempting to doze off with my head in an awake-seeming position, I was inwardly pondering this phrase. It rhymes, and is cheesy--both points in its favor. But it rhymes. And is cheesy. And my supervisor said it.
 
Comments:
so, as the un-hip scientist that i am, what does it mean?
 
As I was going to say, what does it even MEAN?
 
Yes, WT, please illuminate for us. I for one am too lazy to Google it right now.
 
I am guessing it means "things we have to be proud about, and other things that kinda suck" only in stupid teacher-speak.
 
YES! Lu, this must be a stupid English department supervisor thing. Instead of just putting "Close of School" on the agenda, and we would all know what he wanted to talk about, he's got to make it rhyme.

In a move that seems to amuse only me, I pull lines from the blogs I hit on the Next Blog button, and arrange them into found poem form.
