Similar to a cock tease, a grade tease is a teacher or lecturer (usually female) who appears to gain satisfaction and enjoyment in withholding the results of finished assignments until the last possible moment.
The grade tease will spend the day parading around the classroom or lecture theatre, informing students that she has their marks but not actually handing them out. After informing students that she has the marks, she then spends her time thinking of several menial and degrading educational tasks for her students, before finally handing out the marks.
The tease appears to get some sick satisfaction from the pain and stress that he/she is inflicting and throughout the course of the day asks questions such as 'how do you think you have done'? or makes statements such as 'some of you havent done as well as I expected'.

Teacher: So class I have your marked assignments here, but first I think we should read this case study on the Arabian Sand Industry
Student: That teacher is such a fucking grade tease, I dont even give a shit about this case study.
(The next few hours are then spent reading pointless case studies / texts whilst crapping your pants about the result of your assignment, resulting in a totally unproductive lecture or seminar)

Apr 27 Word of the Day
A horoscope so bad that it strikes fear into the heart of the reader, rendering them unable take action or make a decision on anything or to even leave the house. This is caused by a paralyzing fear that those actions or decisions may cause the predictions to come true.
After reading "There is a lot of uncertainty around financial transactions and investments right now, and the wrong decision could result in dire consequences" in his daily Horrorscope, Edward climbed back into bed, pulled the sheets over his head and remained there for the rest of the day.
Edward only had enough gas in his car to get to the gas station but was not sure if he had enough money in his account to pay for gas. His cell phone service had been cut off because his payments were in arrears, and since the only way he could be sure he had enough money (to pay for gas) would be to call the bank, he felt it best to hide in bed and hope his horoscope for tomorrow was more positive.
