Hey, it’s that thing I was supposed to do at least once in the past
month and a half! And I am welcomed back with excessive submissions,
too! And best of all, this is the earliest I’ve ever sent a QOTW E-mail!
Now to-
…
(Yeah, earliest.)
…
(Yes. For the 14th.)
…
(What?)
…
(No, it’s the 14th. I checked yesterday nigh-uhh…)
And best of all, this is the earliest I’ve ever sent next week’s QOTW
E-mail!
Last week’s winner was Rui, saying “我并不是说融化煎饼, 我指的奶酪!一样, 融化巴特不, 奶酪,
当时是啊, 我们有了一个比'煎饼'更好的词, 但我不知道!...闭嘴, 我是想解释玉米饼。“ Tacos sure are great,
aren’t they?
This week’s quotes:
"You might've heard about this with car engines, like, 'Baby that car's
got mad torque!'"
--Ms. Cyrier explaining torque
"So physics students get overwhelmed and they can't finish their work
so they cry themselves to sleep. Actually, they don't sleep, so they
just cry."
--Ms. Cyrier on 3rd quarter
"I think mathematicians see Algebra as the nectar of the gods. And by
nectar, they mean absinthe, possibly laced with hallucinogens. I agree -
it is pure distilled mindf***. And yet so wonderful..."
--Mario Alvarez, pondering why all the sanity-melting math courses tend
to be Algebra-related
[Editor’s note: It actually is nectar, but processed into honey and
then made into mead. With hallucinogens.]
"These are quick and easy to make, unlike love."
-- Tricia, referring to Valentine’s Day hearts
"I'm a camp follower of Genghis Khan. I'm all about violence. I think
whatever politics is about, it should at least be violent."
--Mario Alvarez’s Freshman Seminar professor, on his political views
"It smells really bad in this room...I think it's the freshmen."
--Mr. Whelan
"We don't like to be surprised by doors."
--Ms. Cyrier, on why doors that rotate around more than one axis are
bad
"They were going to hire me as a model, but then they realized I wasn't
standing on my knees."
--Melanie, complaining about the height requirement for high fashion
models
"This fetus thing really isn't working today!"
--Ms. Cyrier, having told her class a few minutes before (entirely out
of the blue) that the sound "shh" is relaxing because it mimics the
sound of blood flow to a fetus
"We talk about Mr. Clifford the way other people talk about television
shows. We're always randomly shouting 'Oh my gosh do you remember that
time when...'"
--Danny
