Stupid, stinking, fat math exam! We hates them!
But I don’t have to cram all the stuff for Moment on my sheet, so it’s all good I can pretend for the time being that everything is okay and I’m not going to fail miserably it’s all good.
Me: Is Moment going to be on the exam?
Dan: No, it’s not.
Priya: Is center of mass on the exam?
Dan: No, it’s from the same chapter. And I spent 2 hours learning it, gah.
Me: Well, now you know, and this knowledge will enrich your life.
Dan: Yeah, sure.
Me: What if you’re walking down the block one day and someone runs up to you and says “I NEED TO FIND THE MOMENT ABOUT THE X AND Y AXES FOR THIS DISCRETE LAMINA OF CONTINUOUS MASS!”
Dan: I would say “I don’t know. I have it on my Cheat Sheet.”
Me: But what if you had your Cheat Sheet with you? You could save a life!
Dan: I should shoot myself for being that uncool.
