In which I begin to wonder whether it's lunchtime yet

Nowadays, I occasionally encounter a student who thinks it's OK to
consume a large, messy, and odorous meal in class. I once saw a
student eat an entire rotisserie chicken, a tub of mashed potatoes
with gravy, several biscuits, and an enormous soft drink during the
first 10 minutes of a lecture. I felt like a jester in the court of
Henry VIII.
