I'm guessing that's you who posted that meme? I guess it could be someone else in your tute...
The Finnish word pilkunnussija, which translates literally to “comma fucker,” is someone who risks his social wellbeing to annoyingly and persistently point out punctuation errors.

A lot of Arts students don't have uni on Fridays so that can have something to do with it...

Yeah they would be, but i guess they figured they could probably learn it themselves or just dont give a stuff anymore or maybe even changed streams.

I do accelerated maths and the lectures are recorded, and it's much better to watch them online at home instead of actually being there in the theatre. I see/hear everything that I would have needed to see and hear, and I also have the luxury of pausing and rewinding if I lose concentration or don't quite get something that was said.

edit:
and I also don't have to wake up at 7 four days a week to attend all those 9am lectures

Uh OH. Just a question..if i miss out on doing an ILT...just one...will it affect my 5% drastically for that subject? i was kind of an idiot and didn't check up on that for a long time..only to realise i'd just missed the closing date...I know that in order to get the 5% you need 50% + and to have attempted all of them...but what if you have completely missed out on one? :S

You can relax :) Fortunately you don't lose the 5%, you lose the proportion of the 5% for missing that ILT (unless things have changed). So if you have 6 ILTs (?) then you've lost less than 1%.
