historians 

historians for the purposes of the definition, shall be defined as sam, hereafter they shall also be known as sam.
the main reasons for this are as follows:
1. sams are geeks
2. sams deny the fact that they r no longer virgins, although it has only occured once it still happened.
3. they are loners
4. they read books too often and have to boast about the amount of work they have done, its uni! you dont do work!!!
5. they have no life
hence for these reasons, no bitch assd loner called sam can call me a ho!
eg.
historians can be so boring
y r all historians virgins?
y wont that historian shag me...
answer: once they've lost it once its impossible to shag them again, theyve had their quota

The Historians Curse 

After reading and imagining oneself in different era's, time's, etc the historian loses a sense of reality and literally, everything becomes relative. Human suffering isn't as bad as others across history have suffered. You borrow words, speech patterns, and mannerisms from other cultures in a different time. You find it hard to interact with people in present society as you present yourself as someone from the past you hold in esteem. You cannot escape the fruits of your own knowledge and are cursed to be a weird unknown thing. An amalgamation of unrelated things without any unifying idea to hold itself together, making it preposterous in the extreme.
Being affected by the Historians Curse the professor was seen as a lunatic as he constantly presented himself as knowing everything whilst acting like a 13th-century townsman looking for God amongst the dead.
