Better than a f**ktard
Didn't you know? The war changed him so much he became a bow and arrow toting member of the Avengers who will straight up murder bad guys. Probably because he has no super powers and feels quite a bit of subconscious inadequacy when he fights alongside the actual god of thunder.
'Marriage' deemed offensive by UNSW lecturers
Updated: 7:58 am, Tuesday, 26 September 2017
One of the country's top universities has warned maths students not to use the term 'marriage' when referring to a well-known theorem because the word may cause 'offence.'
The theorem was proved by Phillip Hall in 1935 and relies on the standard example of matchmaking men and women to represent two distinct sets.
The move by the University of New South Wales comes as student groups clash on campuses around the country on same sex marriage.
UNSW honours student Sean Lynch told Sky News that his lecturer asked students not to refer to the theorem as Hall's Marriage Theorem in an assignment.
'The reason why was because the canonical example has homophobic implications, at least in (lecturer Catherine Greenhill's) eyes,' Mr Lynch said.
He says that while same sex marriage was never explicitly mentioned, it's clear what staff members were referring to.
Senior lecturer and UNSW academic advisor, Dr Thomas Britz, says the advice was inappropriate and he will speak to the staff involved.

I still reckon he had a point. There's no way you could know for sure that he's "far and away the worst marine biologist in history". It's just incredibly likely.What a farce. This whole trend of being offended by everything is hilarious
No homophobe would ever be a philanthropist.Universities walking on egg shells so as to not to upset the philanthropic set ?
