You call those people "students"?

Every time I see all this campus nonsense, I long for someone who’ll emulate S. I. Hayakawa ( at least early in his tenure at SF State).

So our good professor asks the proper way to refer to minimally dressed women ( with pictures please !) and AI says he’s prone to / known for intellectual, provocative queries.

I’m not certain that was his most intellectual question, but I appreciate the spirit of it!!!

Gov. Reagan catapulted into the national political consciousness by dressing down those pointy-headed Berkleyites who refused to stop the inmates taking over the asylum.

Like the Bourbons, 60 years later our "intellectuals" have forgotten nothing and learned nothing.

I would have explained scantily clad vs. scantly clad as follows:

Scantily clad is intentional while scantly clad is “unintentional”.

A person running out of a burning building, awakened from sleep in the middle of the night, might be scantly clad.

A person marooned on a desert island might be scantly clad.

A pretty young lady might be scantily clad out in public or in the privacy of her own home, showing off her charms.

Obviously I defer to Grok AI but this would have been my explanation.

Scantily also has a connotation of jiggling... which will be confirmed when Steve posts the pictorial evidence.

Thomas Sowell also wrote about the radical takeover back then at Cornell.

Gutfeld revenue would add content to the story on late night.

Disclosure: I taped and watched Gutfeld once, but wasn't especially entranced. Maybe I'll try it again.

Poor Grok. It’s just a bot 🤖. A machine ⚙️🎰📠. Sometimes they hallucinate, y’know. And sometimes they come closer to reality. But are you really “conservative”?

Everything not overtly totalitarian is "right-wing." That includes everything not communist or Muslim. Doesn't Grok know that?

I think Eric holder, former AG, was one of those student radicals. Disgrace. Holder was at Columbia.

Imagine what Dave Garroway or Steve Allen would think of the talentless hosts of today whose only comedy (?) is pandering political insults.

Dave's co-host (a chimpanzee) did a much better job!

It uses Wiktionary as its source. Not the OED or some truly literate person. Garbage in Garbage out(not the question that was funny)
