Uhuh, yes, fine, but
is it permissible for me to get pregnant to get out of my hideous, horrible academic job?

(Also drunk. But winning at SingStar. I'm an amazing Nick Cave at "Where the Wild Roses Grow".)

(Edit: and in case anyone thinks I'm being flippant, I'm not, I'm the first person in my working class family - extended family - to go to university. Did I spend my childhood spraypainting graffiti on our crumbling walls? Did I fuck. I also had common sense. I wish it were more common.)

p.p.s. "gradgrindian utility calculi"? Your verbosity is illimitable. :)

More sober edit: I agree.
