3. I once had a professor who insisted that "big ass" and "fuck load" were genuine units of measure

You'll need a fuck load...

8. I had a professor who swore that we owe human progress to
a complex algorithm involving "the schlep factor" and "jolts of joy", I think yours and mine could have come up with a pretty good theory as in "We have to schlep a fuck load of limestone but once you see the big ass pyramid we're building you will be overcome by jolts of joy"

I could use that phrase 17 times per day on average. :D

Of course, we have a European parent company so we're already immersed in the metric system.
