Re: Il'deav Ilah'naie's Indiscreet Intimacies on Indigo Iceboats Random Banter #135
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.

Re: Il'deav Ilah'naie's Indiscreet Intimacies on Indigo Iceboats Random Banter #135
I call dibs on Professor Science, professor of science. I might not be completely qualified, but I did read a few books this one time. Oh, and I built the science machine.

See, that's why Zocelot is only an assistant professor. . .he forgot the exclamation point.

Re: Il'deav Ilah'naie's Indiscreet Intimacies on Indigo Iceboats Random Banter #135
Naturally.
I'm Head of English, maybe giving special lectures in the Department of Linguistics (would it be a sub-department of English or it's own discipline? All the Science!-y ones are under one roof.
I'll be a nice Head and allow sub-departments of 'English' their own building with their own Heads. It'll be like ruling an Empire with all the Heads of Anything Vaguely English-Like being monarchs under my rule!
Mwahahahahahahaha!
Pardon that little outburst.) if Cissy et al. approve.
Would DeeRee like History? Or should we have two Heads to allow for Modern History and Medieval/Ancient History.

Re: Il'deav Ilah'naie's Indiscreet Intimacies on Indigo Iceboats Random Banter #135
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.

Re: Il'deav Ilah'naie's Indiscreet Intimacies on Indigo Iceboats Random Banter #135
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.

Re: Il'deav Ilah'naie's Indiscreet Intimacies on Indigo Iceboats Random Banter #135
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.Last edited by Zocelot; 2009-12-29 at 02:24 PM.

Re: Il'deav Ilah'naie's Indiscreet Intimacies on Indigo Iceboats Random Banter #135
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.

Re: Il'deav Ilah'naie's Indiscreet Intimacies on Indigo Iceboats Random Banter #135
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 propose a longitudinal study of the effects of the exclamation point in "Science!" And I shall do it -- for Science! Come,

Re: Il'deav Ilah'naie's Indiscreet Intimacies on Indigo Iceboats Random Banter #135
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.

Re: Il'deav Ilah'naie's Indiscreet Intimacies on Indigo Iceboats Random Banter #135
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.
