A profession who is known for a) giving many assignments to college students every time there are new movies at cinemas, and b) using the term "thread pool" in Network Programming handouts, where this term "thread pool" happens to sound like the title of the movie that many parents deem to be too inappropriate for college students who still live with parents.
Our lecturer dropped a mountain of work right when the new blockbuster hit theaters, and now we're stuck choosing between movie night and finishing our Thread Pool assignment for our Network Programming class.

Noun. Also a verb, "hedge-lecturing". An unofficial and often illegal peer-to-peer educational method, done totally outside the purview of the educational establishment, in which one person teaches another some technical skill which can potentially be misused for harmful purposes. It is derived from "hedge sermon", when early Protestant clerics were banned by the Vatican from preaching in Catholic churches.
1. Vera gave me a hedge lecture in chemistry in her dining room. 2. I'm hedge-lecturing Max about how engines work.

Hym "No, I'm not going to sit here and be lectured by a fat-cocked piece of shit and his fat friend doing the shit you're doing.
