    We're out in the tundra, eh? I'm setting up a shop near the freshmen dorms and selling real winter wear, probably in partnership with Dragonrider's knitted accessories. Sure, the fetish shop would be fun and higher profit margins, but selling under-layers will provide a reliable income from every crop of "one-size-fits-all gloves don't keep out the coooooooold!" freshmen. (I was one once, although not a freshman and freezing in the same year--that gives me taunting rights.) Also, if we DO land those tasty military contracts, I could get my paws on some radar-absorption fabric and kit out ghost_warlock's robots in stealth tea cozies.

    Already got my hands on history(but not modern, yuch. I consider modern = after wwII), but we could share.

    Linguistics+english would be under one roof, I imagine.
    Own discipline for sure.
    Also I would occasionaly give workshops Dutch.

    Eh, I don't particularly like Modern History. It's a bit boring and samey. Give me Medieval/Ancient History and I'm a happy person.

    The machine I built was a prototype. That's why it was a science machine as opposed to a science! machine.

    Lesson #1: Exclaiming when performing science.

    Whenever you perform science, it is necessary to yell loudly so that everyone around you knows what you are doing. It is still necessary to yell even if they do know what you are doing. Studies have shown that science works 53% more often if people yell before using it (chemistry works 79% more often).

    Merely yelling "Science" is barely adequate, and while it may suffice in some poor, underfunded labs, at the GitP University we go above and beyond the minimum requirement. Exclamation marks are a must, and more is better to a certain point. A good guideline is that when you feel the need to mix !s and 1s, you've done enough. A prefix of "for" makes your statement much more clear and through clarity comes power. Similarly, a suffix of "bitches" will make your statement more powerful. "For Science!!!!!!!!!!!, bitches" is a tried and true statement to scream while performing science. Some experienced scientists will add a wolf howl, a guttural scream, or a yeaaaah! after they are done, but you'll need years of experience before you can even hope to try this; for your own safety please do not attempt this.

    While you yell, you'll have to make a hand gesture. Extend your pinky and index finger, while curling up your middle two fingers and wrap your thumb around them, like a metalhead or Spiderman. If you use both hands, this is even better. A fist may be used instead, but this is much more common with lab assistants that real scientists.

    Please practice your screams for the upcoming lab. Pages 164-166 have some useful tips if you're having trouble, but if you paid attention during this lesson you'll be fine. If you are interested in seeing some of the greatest scientists of our age exclaim, then just go to YouTube. There are even the screams of scientists long deceased, whose screams echoed until they could be recorded. We can only imagine how amazing they were at the time they were uttered.

    Class dismissed.

    Meanwhile, I do not recommend mixing in 1's and ''bitches'' or ''yeah''.
    A statement may be defused if you don't do the yeah properly.
    Mixing in 1's or adding ''bitches'' is just plain common. A good proper yes is rather hard to do, but still easier then the wolf howl or guttural scream.

    In addition: yelling "Behold as I attempt SCIENCE!" before any attempt at Science! is not required, but is heartily recommended.

    Further note: exclamations of "GREAT SCOTT!" will be severely frowned upon...

    This is greatly amusing, I may attend Science! lectures at the GitP Uni.
    I would also like to suggest a theory that italicising the Science! has a positive effect. Research would be needed to determine how much though.

    I've been trying to watch it (I watched the first couple of episodes), but Veoh is acting up on me and automatically playing at 2x speed, making it unwatchable. I might torrent the episodes that I can't watch, because I should be able to watch them.

    Ah, Lady Gaga. No matter how many times she says it in interviews, I refuse to believe that "I want to take a ride on your disco stick" is a "smart lyric". At least, not given the definition of smart I've been using all my life.
