I’m a Psychology major, and if any of you know anything about the UMW Psychology Department, you know that each and every one of the psychology professors are awesome. The Hilarious Kind of Psychology Professor is one of my professors this semester. This is the first class that I have had with him, although I have heard that he is one of the best professors to have. I won’t tell you which class I am taking with him (to keep some kind of mystery as to who he is), but I will tell you some of the best things that he has said or done so far this semester. (You should also know that he tends to get off topic A LOT)

First: The Hilarious Kind of Psychology Professor was telling us about a study in which researchers hooked up monitors to the genitals of males and females to monitor blood flow while they were shown a pornography film. Afterwards, they were given a survey to rate how well they liked the film. Males rated it high; females did not. But males and females had the same amount of blood flow to their genitals, which means that the film got both sexes aroused. The Hilarious Kind of Psychology Professor had to comment on this. He said, and I quote, “I don’t like pornography, but my vagina does.” O_O Needless to say some of us laughed really hard; others, well the others were a bit uncomfortable.

Second: There is a girl in my class, we’ll call her Betty, who is taking Modern Dance. The Hilarious Kind of Psychology Professor was showing us a program where we can create questions for our experiment. He created an example quiz, which had the following questions (with some minor alterations in order to preserve anonymity):

Betty has an A in her _____ ______ class. The answers to choose from where (a) Modern Dance, or (b) Pole Dancing. He made the correct answer pole dancing. (more on this later).

Another question was: Who is more attractive? The answers to choose from were (a) George Clooney, or (b) The Hilarious Kind of Psychology Professor. I’m sure you know what answer he made correct. Yep, The Hilarious Kind of Psychology Professor.

Another question was: The Hilarious Kind of Psychology Professor was a spokesperson for ______. The choices were Speedo or Oakley, and the girl sitting next to me said “Oh, God, please don’t be Speedo.” It wasn’t Speedo.

The last question I will share was: The Cutest Kind of Psychology Professor met The West Coast Kind of Psychology Professor (they are married now) ___________. The answers were either (a) while The Cutest Kind of Psychology Professor was writing his dissertation, or (b) While The Cutest Kind of Psychology Professor was a Chippendale dancer at The West Coast Kind of Psychology Professor’s favorite club. The answer he made correct was a, but it was still funny.

Now back to Betty and pole dancing. The Hilarious Kind of Professor went around and asked everyone what their groups were for our experiment that we have to do. He got to Betty and asked her “Who are your other pole dancers?” She said” Krissy and Becky (not her real name).” Hahaha, so I inadvertently get called a pole dancer.

I may post a periodically about The Hilarious Kind of Psychology Professor and the funny things he does.
