So i've got this professor this semester for "Native Cultures of South America"....I call him "Captain Spaceman"
This guy i would guess is maybe in his mid-late 60s, but seriously looks about 85....and he's nearly deaf so you have to yell to ask him a question...
The thing with this guy is, he's spent a lot of time talking to us about his memorable drug experiences with marijuana (he didn't like it cause it made him sleepy) and magic mushrooms...Somehow this got brought up in class today and he spent the greater part of 30 minutes talking about the time he was on magic mushrooms and "sparks flew out of his jaws" and the time he took some mushrooms with two chicks and everyone turned into "big soapy bubbles"
My favorite story of his was when he told us about the time he was doing peyote with the Navajo...he blacked out and there were three men sitting on top of him, apparently because he had started "walking at right angles" and they didn't want him to hurt himself...
The guy is a trip...I literally can't stop laughing at him...And this is the second crazy old guy professor i've had in as many semesters...the last one looked straight out of a Will Ferrell bit and wore a big beret and admonished us to watch "The Blackboard Jungle"
Anyone else have any experiences with the "crazy old guy" type of professor or teacher...?
