The Daddy is a nickname coined for a mythical character who resides in the front row of first year computer science lectures. Rumour states that he once wore a t-shirt with "I'm The Daddy" emblazoned on the front, and continues to shape the fashion interests of computer scientists across Wales.
Now in his second semester, and despite constant pleas for him to shut up, he continues to disrupt every lecture he attends.
Brimming with enthusiasm, he often makes largely unhelpful contributions to the content of lectures. Examples of such contributions include:
"That isn't actually a processor, the processing happens in the little bit on the top" "I don't get it" "So, what you're saying is.. <repeat previous 5 minutes of lecture>" "Can you go back to the beginning and start again?" Stating the obvious on a regular basis
An avid juggler, The Daddy is known to wield his balls at any opportunity, much to the amazement of his peers. Famous sightings include Aberdovey, where a special juggle was performed for a select handful of computer scientists. Despite having imbibed several alcoholic beverages, The Daddy's hand-eye co-ordination skills were still impeccable, leading common belief to be that he is indeed not from this planet, or spends a ridiculous amount of his time juggling.
This guy sounds like a guy who was in my first year lectures, apart from the juggling as this one had a walking stick and looked like a Vietnaam vet' I can't remember his name, his favourite t-shirt stated "Last one dead is a pussy" or something to that effect. -- Aimaz
Yeah every year has one of these guys, we called ours Timey-B because he had a face like one of the height impaired people from Time Bandits. His voice was also really high pitched and whiney :< -- Ultima 09:21, 28 November 2006 (GMT)
In response to Aimaz, I also remember 'interrupting walking stick guy' but now that I look back on it I realise it may have been House :/ -- Swb
It is rummored that he slept with David Platt
