Compilers-III: The Revenge of Zulu
(Background Music + Scrolling Text)
Lord Vader had suffered serious setbacks. He had not expected such a huge rebellion from the students. He had to think fast. Time was running out for him and the students, were running out of control. The only thing that he had in his mind was revenge.. yes revenge on the student community.. On the other hand, the student community was overjoyed, after having witnessed the calm on his face. Little did they know about him.. It was the calm before the storm.

He had come in time for the class. There was this unprecedented calm registered on his face. There was no usual chit-chat or excitement in his voice. And he did not bring his laptop!! And when he started teaching on the board, all we could think was, did he take the comments seriously? Well, in a way, it is good. But compilers is a very, very boring subject. BC is a must in every compilers class, of course the limits are pretty much debatable. But he just went on talking about register allocation, in a mechanical manner. Without BC and comments (yes, the hyderabadi ones), it was one of the very boring classes, until he could bear it no longer. This time it was Mr. Osiris, who had dozed off in the class. The expressions that Zulu was making were similar to the ones made by Carterman in South Park when he gets pissed off.. X( .. almost laughed out aloud.. He started rambling something in Telugu(out of which I cudnt make much sense) Immediately, he caught Frag(who was sleeping away to glory :D) and lectured him on good, sleeping habits.(I do follow his advice half-heartedly. coz I m always Early to bed :D). To quote him in the exact words, when he was describing Osiris were,"He is closing his eyes like the Great Lord Buddha." =))
Then came the issue of assignments. Only Ms. S had done the assignments. Now he was ultra-pissed and he told in the class that he would be awarding her an 'A' irrespective of her performance in the exams. And then he asked I.V whether he did the assignments, to which he answered in negative. Now he was shocked, and kept on muttering to himself "Oh God!! Even the class topper is not doing the assignments". Then he pointed out how he (I.V) was the gang leader (yes, he used the exact terms :D) of the group of hippies =)), who were always dressed shabbily. (I am not a fashion conscious person. So i wont comment on it. I m always a diplomat :D). And then he pointed out that even the girls were not taking bath regularly, and that does not befit their stature. By now the class was in a frenzy, with people clapping and banging the desks.
Then once the roll-call began, the old Zulu was back!! Commenting.. criticizing.. All this while I was enjoying it, until it was my turn. I had missed the previous class, and so he asked me the reason for my absence. When all I could muster was "Just like that", it was like offering my head as a sacrificial offering to satiate his hunger. And he took it with glee. He started with the assignments section, to which I replied that I had not done any. Then he announced in the class, that in my first year, I had confronted the director questioning the heavy workload on the then ug1 students. Talk of elephantine memory.. phew!! And then he passed his final judgement.. I needed a life partner!! Can u believe it? dayummmmmmm..
Then he went on to comment that I.V was the Sun and all his other gang members were like planets revolving around him. Then he called Tipo a pseudo-moon.. (or someone from the backbenches made it up)
So there you go.. the ever lamenting, always criticizing, comment-or-die Zulu is back.. back with vengeance. He is gonna check our assignments on Monday. The PL-0 one. I dont think many people would be completing it. May God be with us.. AMEN..
