There's a (fairly new, I assume) Tumblr blog called Animals Disappointed in your College Performance.
The OSTRICH* is probably my favorite, but the walrus is a close second (If I had five bucks for every time someone asked me at the very end of the semester for "extra credit" when they had skipped more than one of the regular assignments....well, it would be hyperbolic to say I could retire now, but I would be able to buy myself something VERY nice).
*Originally had that as giraffe. Different animal, but still a tall animal with a long neck.
Disclaimer: I usually love what I do but sometimes you need to blow off a little steam. And there are those people out there who say things like, "This is a *science* class, why are you taking off for grammar in the paper I wrote?" The answer being: because people have to be able to UNDERSTAND what you are communicating. And massive run-on sentences, lack of subject-verb agreement, and missing punctuation makes it harder to understand.
