Global Speaker Series (n): A place where people (especially middle schoolers) can ask questions that have already been answered.

Example:

Middle School English Teacher: The alphabet goes as follows: A, B, C, D. . .

Middle Schooler: What comes after C?

Middle School English Teacher: What do you think this is, a Global Speaker Series?

Wherever Dr. D puts us (n.): The submission of oneself to the unchecked administrative power of Dr. D.

Example:

Student: So now that Mubarak is out of power, what kind of government will Egypt have?

Enlightened History Teacher: Well it’s hard to say, but probably one based on Wherever Dr. D puts us.
