This is probably the worst torture. Whoever thought factoring via trial and error should be taught as a legitimate and necessary method should be crucified. This is so painfully slow. Why would anyone assign this homework to me. I hate this class.
Welcome to my Structures classes. You had to 'solve' the problem in order to figure out what beam to use in order to actually solve the problem and then solve it again and hope you weren't way off the first time.
Damnit what.
The only way to get an answer for the question was to have already answered the question.
Guess at what beam you need and then, through trial and error, pare it down to the actually sensible shape and size that meets the requirements of the formula. Basically it was a big circle of the same equation (that was like a page and a half long eventually) used until you found the right answer. Gives you a lot of faith in the structure of older buildings before computers did all this for you, doesn't it?
No, scientifically-provable generalities are fine.
Except it's not scientifically-provable. It's possible that, when I try to put my hand in the fire, all the atoms in my hand will rearrange themselves leaving nothing there. It should happen about once in every six lifetimes of the universe, but it's not a for-sure thing. I mean, it will probably burn, but not necessarily.
Why aren't you sticking your hand in fires, then?
You just wasted your time writing nonsense. You should jail yourself; really, it's for your own good. It's good training. It builds character. Now that I can only post every 150 seconds, I find myself crafting brilliance into everything I write. You, with no post timer, have no need to cultivate your logic or writing skills. Obviously.
Why would I need to do that when I can get so much more joy out of getting you to waste your one post every two and a half minutes replying to bullshit I couldn't possibly care less about?
It's cool, man. Maybe some day you'll wake up and be as cool as me. You'll have had your sixth or seventh shot of So Co and Lime or Blackhaus or whatever pussy shot you do, and you'll collapse to the floor, and I'll be sitting up, smiling, downing my 12th or 13th shot of Jack or Black, waving to all my fans as they sing "hurrah! hurrah!" in paean to me. Maybe you'll wake up from that stupor and realize how much I win just by coexisting in this universe simultaneously with you.

Help me pick a funny movie for our Wednesday Movie Night. The newer the better.
Tropic Thunder.
I never found that movie particularly funny as I was expecting it to be. Except for Tom Cruise looking like an idiot, that was worth it.
Agreed. Put me to sleep on a plane flight. It didn't help that I had watched Hancock just beforehand... another relentlessly sub par comedy/action film from this past year.

That doesn't even make any sense.

Which sucks because it had an interesting idea for the first half. What if Superman really existed, but instead of being all truth and justice he was a drunk and an asshole? I'd totally watch that.

I think the point was that all those biting comments had rather innocent recipients who had been harmed by his words.
Nah I finally came to from my Nyquil cocktail that knocked me out hours ago.
forgetting sarah marshall!

But I was a high school freshman at the time.
(Didn't even know they were written by the same guy)
You sir, are objectively wrong. That whole movie was hilarious.

I'm having some ice cream
The lessons may now commence.
That's right, keep eating.

I don't know. No. I don't know.
No one will never be as cool as you
This seems like it will just exasperate the situation.
The Big Lebowski
took out her barrettes and her hair spilled out like rootbeer
I liked this chair
Last week we had tropic thunder for our movie night, it was awesome.

Do not fuck with the Jesus.
I sat next to someone who wake and baked the morning of the SAT.
He did poorly.
God damn it
Nobody fucks with the Jesus' lines
Charlie Bartlett was really good. Tropic Thunder, Knocked Up...
You might also try City of Ember. It was pretty surprisingly entertaining.
Maybe something else with Bill Murray.
A pint of ice cream solves any problem. It's like duct tape, only delicious.
Damn, man. Get it right.

Exactly, he shouldn't fuck with the Jesus.
Free Enterprise, if you can find it. Fucking hilarious. Very geeky film, though, but in a non-geeky way. Kind of.
Though it's not very new.
That doesn't even make any sense.
