So, I figured I'd just post this interesting list of bizarre things I've overheard here this past week... tis quite amusing. And disturbing. And other adjectives..
"I'm majoring in math... I'm majoring in bio... I'M MAJORING IN GENOCIDE." -the result of some bizarre conversation had on the way to the dining hall.
"That's like, 8th grade eminating from that Macintosh!" - guy from down the hall, yelling about someone's music choice.
"Just hearing that song like, makes me want to make love to my grandmother..." - random girl who wandered into our room while people were playing something by the Beatles
"Lazy is actually a good long-term strategy because action contributes to entropy, and entropy will kill off the universe someday. Your world will die someday because you are in class today, instead of staying in bed." - my calc prof, who also wrote "cheat responsibly" on our syllabi.
"We can do things to numbers... really BAD things." - calc prof again... he also says that functions "blow up" when they dont exist at a point... though, that seems to be a property of the entire math department. What do you expect for a department whose subdomain is zaphod? Bunch of weirdos... shame I don't understand their subject, they might be fun. Goshdarn I need some real geeks.
If there's one thing I've learned here so far, it is that there are all kinds of geeks and nerds.. There are nerd-jocks, and Gap-nerds, snob-geeks, rich-nerds, dork-nerds, and druggie-geeks. It's insane.. the people are basically like everyone from high school (I keep seeing people in my Hum class that remind me of people I graduated with... people that I didn't like), only marginally smarter, in theory. Though a lot of them don't act it, and they're the most condescending ones.

(And, hey! You forgot the geek-nerds, the geek-geeks, and the weird-geeks!)

The geek-nerds, geek-geeks, and weird-geeks were neglected because you expect those types (and sometimes don't find them.. hmm).
