[QUOTE=AG;17980160]GuitarBizarre is arguing that stereotypes aren't based on facts.

XKCD is '*HUGE*' because the content it generates is widely recognised.[/QUOTE]

Really? I'd argue its huge because its funny. I don't go through every comic saying 'OH I SAW THAT THIS OTHER PLACE'

[QUOTE=motogrifo;17979911]Just a little bit, but the courses are in english, the whole enterprise is on "english" mode, I even have to speak english with the mexicans working with me so the germans who are around also understand. I'm liking the vibe of the people in there.[/QUOTE]

Sweet, I'm thinking about minoring in German if I have the time. I got offered a job working in an office in Germany for the summer but everyone working there would be speaking English and the job didn't have anything to do with what I'm going to school for so I passed on it.

awsome-o

probably have a few nicks n things to edit still, im never happy really

I posted it because it seemed vaguely familiar to me; I had no idea where it came from.

Yup, and Physics is Maths :)

[QUOTE]Dammit people if you're going to reference XKCD just post the bloody comic.[/QUOTE]

I've no idea what XKCD is but that whole "saying" has been around a loooooooooong time ..

[QUOTE=motogrifo;17979913]you're a sociologist, right josh?[/QUOTE]

I was but I changed my major to cognitive neuroscience with a sociology minor.

and ffs I hate hate hate xkcd.

Why do people try to strike up small talk on/waiting for elevators? Some woman who looked like she was in her mid-30's just made my elevator ride weird. Though it probably doesn't beat the two nuns from a few days a go.

Reverse penguin suites and all. Me and my friend who I was carpooling with looked at each-other like WTF? When the elevator doors opened.

I get the joke, but it is poorly done. Plus I'm an engineer and engineering > mathematician. Well, depending what area they study. Engineers focus more on Calculus where mathematics majors often focus on Algebra.

i hate god damn math

I hate LFD.

That hurts SBT. :upset:

sowwy. blame alcohol.

I love xkcd, it reminds me of how engineers have very limited ways of thought

I must say, that one was good moto. The xkcd one posted above was not. Yours definitely rings true. :D

Why are you such a sociopath?

I assure you that anyone with a degree in maths has a pretty diverse grasp of calculus and to lump stuff like Set Theory and Topology under 'algebra' is a bit demeaning, all maths of any use is ultimately algebra in some form (including calculus)

Bwahaha, I'd only just linked someone to that on FB....

SMBC is probably the most consistent comic out there - loads have dry patches (or in xkcd's case, a year-long decline) but SMBC is always at least fairly funny.

xkcd was actually good once but the problem is he keeps knocking out 3 crappy comics a week instead of 1 good one

the best at the moment has to be Hark! A Vagrant though.

Sup lod.
