 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

 and it is written on a sign somewhere in my minecraft save file” Vin
