I'm wasting my time and not getting paid enough...

Recommended Posts

So today I gave my fourth test of the semester to all classes (geology, physics and chemistry)- I swear I could teach my class in german and no one would know any different.

One question: Name the two types of nuclear reaction and describe the difference. (I was looking for fusion and fission)

One answer "the atoms are destorde"
(not quite sure what destorde means....)

"What is the speed of sound in air?"

2 degrees F.....:S

"Why does the sky appear blue?"

Because all the colors of the rainbow are beat down by the color blue.

And this one...(sorry McDuck)...instead of saying short...

Cinder cones are small in tallness...

I spent 4.5 years in that massachusetts hell hole for this???

"Why does the sky appear blue?"



That is my favorite question ever... B|B| I happen to already know the answer... but one of my favorite things to do when instructors/presenters ask the open ended "Any Question?"

I just love to return with "Why is the Sky Blue?"

:ph34r::ph34r::ph34r: you get some wierd looks in non-scietific environments when you ask that question. :D:D:D

ahahah, you know i left some rather creative answers in blue books during my college years. unfortunately i can see only one "creative" answer in the lot here, the rest are just sad. (the beat down answer is the one i'm referring to, +1 point for humor, -2 points for stupidity though)

ever seen this? http://www.boreme.com/boreme/funny-2002/hell-p1.php?fromrelated=1

IS HELL EXOTHERMIC (GIVES OFF HEAT) OR ENDOTHERMIC (ABSORBS HEAT)?

Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle's law (gas cools off when it expands and heats up when it is compressed), or some variant. One student, however, wrote the following:
_______________________

First, we need to know how the mass of Hell is changing in time. So we need to know the rate that souls are moving into Hell and the rate they are leaving. I think that we can safely assume that once a soul goes to Hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving.

As for how many souls are entering Hell, let's look at the different religions that exist in the world today. Some of these religions state that if you are not a member of their religion, you will go to Hell. Since there are more than one of these religions and since people do not belong to more than one religion, we can project that all souls go to Hell.

With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls in Hell to increase exponentially.

Now, we look at the rate of change of the volume in Hell because Boyle's Law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in Hell to stay the same, the volume of Hell has to expand as souls are added.
This gives two possibilities:

1. If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls enter Hell, then the temperature and pressure in Hell will increase until all Hell breaks loose.

2. Of course, if Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in Hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until Hell freezes over.

So which is it? If we accept the postulate given to me by Ms. Teresa Banyan during my Freshman year, "...that it will be a cold day in Hell before I sleep with you", and take into account the fact that I still have not succeeded in having sexual relations with her, then #2 cannot be true, and thus I am sure that Hell is exothermic, and will not freeze.

Dude I have all kinds of ads in the classifieds!!!!!:):):)



Don't tempt me! I sit in my office between classes and think "you're a dumb mother f*****" for leaving eloy...."

The sad part though is that most of these "students" are education majors and will be teaching soon. So I wield the only power I have - the dreaded F. They won't graduate if I have anything to say about it.

So now I'm doing my dead level best to get drunk and try to forget about the impending armageddon...

:D:D:D

oh, yeah... only 60k? :S:D:D

Often the "basic" Physics courses are the hardest because the focus is on the concepts and less on the details of the math.

for what its worth I don't know the speed of sound...

although I do know the speed of light in a vacuum... :P

What is the speed of sound in a vaccume?



you'd have to ask my students. I had that question on there...multiple choice no less.

Sound travels fastest in which medium?
a) water
b) air
c) vacuum
d) solid rock

75% picked c....

did anyone hear screaming around 2:30 edt?

that was me.
