Have a more senior student post a remark which implies that someone's comments are fascinating... and that the student is looking forward to the comments of those who've not yet posted (their remarks).
(For those unfamiliar with this brave new world, there are classes in which much (or all) of one's contact with other students and professors is online. Papers may be posted for review, discussion and commentary in order to assist in developing important conversations.)
The implication appearing to be that there's an assignment that's due--or actually overdue--and that some people should get off the stick....
Mad scramble.
What texts are referenced in the comment and the reply?
Crap! Crapcrapcrap! I haven't gotten to reading them--yet! Augh!
Quick, go check the syllabus--when was that paper due? I was pretty sure that I'd done everything due in December already, for that class. Augh!
Oh. Wait. Someone has gone and done the assignment due Jan 3rd (damned overachievers), and then gone and commented on someone's paper for the last assignment... making it look like more than one person had done recent work....
Oh.
Hold the Xanax.
I'll go back to figuring out how to complete another project and procrastinating.
