HAHAHAHA the second one. Reminds me of a problem set I got in calc III where we had to find the volume of a 1x1x1 cube in the first octant with corner at the origin using: a) Cartesian coordinates b) cylindrical coordinates c) spherical coordinates. No problem set has made me doubt the volume of a 1x1x1 cube is 1 more than that problem set.
After this past semester, I relate heavily to the second pictorial. The entire semester I was trying to band together the physics major's to drop out with me.
Not enough cats in trebuchetsHaha, omg. That second one is hilarious. The first one is funny, but in my experience, the physics problems are too colorful.
An ant is running along the surface of a donut with volume 59 cm^3. It is spinning clockwise at a constant angular velocity of 2.54 cm/s. How fast does the ant have to run in the anticlockwise direction to circumnavigate the surface of the donut in 12 seconds?
Would you rather have the ant be replaced with "particle" and donut be replaced with "circle"?Haha, omg. That second one is hilarious. The first one is funny, but in my experience, the physics problems are too colorful.

My favorite from this past semester was,
Two hobos, each of mass mh, are standing at one end of a stationary railroad flatcar with frictionless wheels and mass mfc.
Either hobo can run to the other end of the flatcar and jump off with the same speed u (relative to the car).
Use conservation of momentum to find the speed of the recoiling car if the two men run and jump off simultaneously.
Let vv be the velocity of the recoiling car.
What better way to to practice conservation of momentum than analyze two hobos jumping off a train car?
My MCAT study book said that all the physics on the exam would be biologically relevant....
I really hope I get some hobos on the mcat...My MCAT study book said that all the physics on the exam would be biologically relevant....
Example: If a human being (biological!) was shot out of a cannon at an angle of 35 degrees....
That sounds oddly EK...My MCAT study book said that all the physics on the exam would be biologically relevant....

I felt festive so I put on a hat.

I hardly drink, but yesterday was a must lol. Still the beer pong king.My wife and I had to prep for Christmas and wrap the girls' presents. If we still drank, that would have been the time for some beers.
Merry Christmas everyone!
And a double Merry Christmas to you!
Merry Christmas and Merry Beermas!And a double Merry Christmas to you!

Thanks, bro. Have a happy Kwanzaa tomorrow.
I like you. You can have whatever holiday you want.Trigger instesifies!

January 6 is the 3 Kings day. #morepresentsAnd a Happy Hanukkah for the next 7 days!
Of course you like me. We has been buddies in this bish for a while. Are you entering MS2 (or 3) next year?I like you. You can have whatever holiday you want.
Halfway through MS3Of course you like me. We has been buddies in this bish for a while. Are you entering MS2 (or 3) next year?
Yes please... And also just call tripping fouls or technical fouls for excessively hanging on the rim@Gibbward, what the hell...
i mean, should i cast a spell on Kyrie Irving?!
Yeah but BJ is the only one you can really game to tilt the odds.

Yeah but that's if you're playing TH against people people, not against the house.You can give yourself a bit of an advantage in TH. I definitely used to make my roommate all kinds of pissed off because he considered himself a competitive poker player, and I'd usually beat him (with little knowledge of the game, but a good understanding of math and stats--and my favorite, game theory).

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA omg I'm dying.
SDN is so quiet during the holidays... I usually come back to ~10 notifications after I get off work but today it was 0
Yesss, mega bump! Happy holidays y'all!
Dr.Seuss does grant MD's now! A vivisection sounds a little invasive though.
