Probably the most fiendish thing this university does to us is make us interview student applicants on Sundays.

Typical interview:

Student: *has studied commerce/business/math/science for the last two years and decided on a whim to apply for admission into the BA English Honours programme*
Me: Can you recall an author or text that may have caught your attention in English class?
Student: Can I have some time to think?
Me: Sure.
Student: *several moments later* Yeah, sorry, I got nothing.
Me: That's all right.

Also me:
