//Schwartz subbing in for Donaldson's Origins class Students around the room, imitating Aristotle: The sea is salty because the earth is sweating. People exhaling causes shooting stars. There are 53 spheres between the Earth and the Milky Way. People peeing and then having a tremor is analogous to the earth's waters flowing, followed by an earthquake. Schwartz: I'm beginning to understand why ancient philosophers were deemed heretics.

//Complex //Haydn ties the window's pull cord to a stool, then places a pen on the string and lets go. The pen moves along the rope and hits the chair //Class looks at Haydn Schwartz: I have a story to tell about this. When I took AP Environmental Science-- do you guys still do that? The easiest way to pass the test is to pick the option closest to "Humans suck, and if we keep doing whatever we're doing, we're screwed". Environmental science is actually interesting, but the test was awful. Anyways, I finished in 45 minutes and had an hour left. It was also my last test, so I had all my AP student labels, and there were tissues, paper, pencils, and other instruments on a table we could go to. By using my student labels as adhesive, I constructed a sailboat during that hour, and whenever the proctor made their rounds, I would blow the sailboat from one end of the desk to the other.

//Modsim //Beginning of class Ostrander: Listen to my podcasts. //Later, Rose walks in //Immediately Rose: Pham I was thinking about you. You're crazy. //A few sentences later Pham: The universe is expanding. Rose: So? Pham: So it's divergent. Rose: Just because something is growing doesn't mean its divergent. //Uh oh Rose: Adding up an infinite number of things when it diverges is infinite, its MEANINGLESS. Pham: But the third law of thermodynamics says universe is expanding. Rose: It doesn't make any sense! It's like when you go to the dollar store and buy one of those horses that, horses that... //3 hours later ...horses that, horses.... horses that when you put them in water start growing. You say "OH OH its growing its divergent." //Bass boosted Pham: What do you mean? It makes sense. Rose: So you're saying the universe is a divergent series. Pham: Yes. Rose: Will you write that down, so there's a record of you saying that?
