They can be categorised into distinct groups, you know.

These thick-skulled specimens are usually very tall, posess limited vocabulary (often only one quasi-word: <i>WharrafuK</i>) and have brains up to 40% smaller than normal. They also apparently exude high quantities of male sex-hormone, since women invariably find them hugely attractive.<p>Which brings us onto the other type of student: the female.
