Poll question: DU Vinyl snobs. Please select the appropriate punishment.
One of our students used our Discwasher as a chalkboard eraser today. How should this student be punished?

1. The Ishtar punishment..
I voted for it.. however...

It is technically a warcrime under the Geneva Convention...

3. Mitigated by the fact...
... that ruining a Discwasher is an act of war.

5. Had to go with Carrot Top
As a former reel to reel projectionist who was forced to repeatedly watch Ishtar there are actually likeable things about Ishtar. There is nothing likeable about Carrot Top. Nothing. Not. A. Thing.

6. However..
Locking them alone in a room with Carrot-Top is like punishment for Carrot-Top, since most sane people would bludgeon him to death with a pair of socks filled with angry weasals.

7. lol
that, of course assumes that we care a nit about punishment to Carrot Top - I believe that Carrot Top owes the entire planet for his sad and sorry career.

Note to PETA - No weasels were harmed in the bludgeoning death of Carrot Top or the student who used the Discwsher in a way still making my flesh crawl.

8. None of the selections are good enuf

Force them to listen to the most scratched up vinyl you can find,

preferably THEIR favorite groups/albums.

and of course make them replace it !

9. Do I just have remarkably bad taste?
1. I like being flogged.
2. "Disco Mickey" was the finest thing to ever happen to a five year old (and I still have it -- on vinyl, I might add).
3. What's wrong with watching "Life of Brian?"
4. Okay. Tire iron across the kneecaps sounds unpleasant.
5. Was the baby premature?
6. "Ishtar" is an underrated movie. Sure, it ain't great, but there were some very clever elements to it.
7. Carrot Top is a funny guy. And little. So when his humor ran out, I could kick his ass pretty handily.

10. I went with Public Flogging.
Mr. Pullings, rig a grating and pipe all hands to witness punishment.
