Not sure if she understood anything. She seemed confused Edited December 20, 2017 by Earthlinger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delay Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 You know you are a nerd when you integrate the volume of a pyramid (or any other pointy 3D object)... in class. You know you are a nerd when the rest of the class watches a film (because Technology!! and last day of school before Christmas) and you complain about how unrealistic it is. You then decide that drawing an approximation of the Mandelbrot Set is a better use of your time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

obney kerman Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 When you finish writing the paragraph 20 minutes before class ends (You started 15 minutes ago) and you spend the rest of the time debating with yourself about a hypothetical matchup between the Cylons from BSG and the UNSC from Halo.

Delay Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 (edited) I do similar things in math lessons. The work we do should go over multiple days (90 minute lessons, two days per week), but I'm done with it 10 minutes before the end of the first day. So I've got over 90 minutes doing nothing. Time to draw some Lissajous curves, Julia sets or other (mathematical) stuff and get looked at weirdly from everyone else!

Glitchgamer12 Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 (edited) When you think knowing the answer to an equation in class makes you cool. When you wish for more movies like Interstellar and The Martin. When the gym is your worst enemy. When all you think about is how to efficiently get to one place to another. When you have a shelf dedicated to Lego instruction booklets. Also when you use winter for an excuse for staying indoors.
