Modern-day Gladiator Mugs

"I feel your pain."

Rage.

I only root so hard for my time because I hate your team so much.

"This is a test. This is only a test. IF this had been the real world it'd be your job you'd be fighting for, not a letter of the alphabet."

I'm Spartacus.

'So...worked in 'IT' long?'

Hear me, Graduates!

'On the other hand, if I never finish anything I can't be a complete failure...'

"It was your father's idea - He can't bear to miss a second of the game."

"Just a routine ID check, Mr. Spartacus - there are lots of people with the same name, you know."

Waiting for the results.

"Are you not infotained?!!"

'I'm just your average suburban gladiator mum.'

Monster chariot races

Another entry from the encyclopedia of gaming: Pixel sprain - any physical injury incurred from intense video game play.

"Learning percentages has made me realize there's a 50% chance I'll flunk math."

"It just isn't the same without the fans."

'It's so cool we have another test today.'

Power Point Hell

"Yes, it's report card time again."

"If he'd done that to me, I'd have got up and given him a good thump!"

'Smog, pollen, acid-rain, holes in the ozone-layer, crime, road rage, terrorists - HERE I COME!'

"I don't know where his dip in form came from."

'Better put this on. . . health and safety.'

SNOW WARS: The fight-back

"Well, it's the end of the school year...when everyone finally gets serious about getting a good grade."

'Tell me. Did the 253 internships come before or after the Ph.D in English?'

Boxer with glasses.

Body builder flexs his muscles so much that his head disappears inside them.

'He was just a temp.'

Things get heated at the outing.

'I wish they hadn't voted out instant replay.'

"I figure participation marks are my only hope for a good grade in this class."

"I know we decided this was immoral, but no one has called me on it in a while, so I think I'll stick it out through the season."
