'Jog a little, you look [...] sad': Professor makes fun of student's appearance in front of her peers, she immediately calls him out

Professors sometimes need to be taken down a peg. Some of them walk around wielding unbridled power just because they have PhDs and a group of eager students trying to impress them. Some of them get a little high on their own intellectual supply and aren't the nicest kinds of people to be around. But it's hard as a student to call out your teacher. The inherent power structures are so strong that you often don't feel like you get the right to criticize them. After all, though, you are an adult and they are a fallible individual. Even if they don't make you feel like that is true, it is true.

Another thing that supposedly smart people sometimes do is dole out insults in the guise of intellectual language. They hit you with so much jargon that you don't realize you're being roasted. But that doesn't make it hurt any less.
