Ping: Non-Scientists

WSUCougar · 02-03-2006, 08:45 AM

You can feel safe here, amongst the history majors with minors in English. Here, no one will say things like "thermodynamics" or "the liberation of dissolved gasses."

Here is a place to call home.

Ksyrup · 02-03-2006, 08:46 AM

Thank you. I didn't want to have to pull out my "rabbit with a pancake on its head" pic again.

Butter · 02-03-2006, 08:48 AM

Ideal gas law!
Law of thermodynamics!

Ha-ha!

rkmsuf · 02-03-2006, 08:50 AM

I am the law!

Kodos · 02-03-2006, 08:52 AM

String theory! Dark matter! Conservation of mass!

Slowly back out of this thread, pal, or I'll have to start quoting Chaucer's Canterbury Tales at you. In Middle English.

We had to memorize the opening to that in High School. Oddly enough, I can still remember a bunch of it almost 15 years later.

Ksyrup · 02-03-2006, 09:00 AM

OK, now look what you done gone made me do...

Qwikshot · 02-03-2006, 09:07 AM

What if you are a really bad scientist?

Ksyrup · 02-03-2006, 09:09 AM

You're still a scientist, Beaker.

Kodos · 02-03-2006, 09:09 AM

Punctuated equilibrium! Nanotechnology! Gravity may not exist!

Hi! My name is Drake and I'm happy to be here.

Don't tell anybody, but I'm not really a scientist.

I think that's actually two pancakes. My English minor requires that I make these kinds of grammatical suggestions.

Sometimes you have to sacrifice realism to...fit all of those words on the pic? I don't know, I didn't create it.

KWhit · 02-03-2006, 09:27 AM

This one's for JPhillips:

Sounds good to me. Hey, we're not scientists here, if we have to sacrifice some realism then so be it

I just liberated some possibly-dissolved gas, and it made a funny noise.

Chuck Norris invented science. You making fun of Chuck Norris?

Glad I'm not near you, on the off chance the out-gassing is slightly toxic.

We can only hope. And it won't look a damned thing like Charlie Stross says it will.

Actually, I believe that is not a pancake at all. Or two pancakes. But rather a Japanese pastry known as "manju".
