Being a Smartass in English 201A

I raise my hand.

"Yes, [Jae]," the English instructor says.

"I don't know if you want to dodge this question, but I recently read an article on porn in the New Yorker, and I'm wondering what this author might think about porn," I say. I wait a second. "Should we turn this into a class discussion?" When I said, "this author," I was referring to an article that was required reading about how art morally corrupts (this was debated by said author).

The woman up front with me in the next row visibly shakes her head.
