2:1 in puerile bullshit

Congratulations to clever Jenny from Bath! Not so much for achieving good marks in her course as for getting away with this shit:

This message is to give you guys a huge thank you because even though you had no idea, you have contributed greatly to my education. I am currently doing a Masters in English language/linguistics. In my third assignment I had to transcribe and analyse spoken conversation and I was racking my brains about what conversation to transcribe, but then, I thought of your brilliant podcast. So, thanks to episode 176 I received a nice 2:1 of 68 [smiley face].

Although, I must say it did take me a while to actually find six minutes of you guys not speaking about rude explicit things. In spite of this, the transcript did contain Olly’s comment about ‘Tommy Lee’s cock in Pamela Anderson’s face’, it couldn’t be avoided (and I felt I owed it to you).

It sounds like Jenny got that 2:1 through the same tactic we found successful: blind the examiners with chutzpah. Works a treat in the arts subjects. Wouldn’t recommend it for something which actually requires the demonstration of knowledge, though.
