Re; RA Dinner & A+ Students...
OMG, the academic competition is suddenly going to be insanely FIERCE! Like Project Runway-level FIERCE! Kind of like...Fabulous-ness meets Academia. DUCK! Buy earplugs! (Warning: A "Kate"-level of skreechiness ensues...)

Student - "NO! Unnhh uh, beyatch, that was MY completed essay question on the relative merits of thermo-dynamics. You try and fling about portions of the elemental table in a bizarre, non-scientific attempt at supporting your material, and I'll kick that pi equation, so far up your..."

RA - "LADIES! There are plenty of seats at the table for dinner! Now play nice! You COULD ALL get an A+!!"

Student - (whining annoyingly) "But, Pro-fess-ooooor!. You only have two sides and one person directly across from you! I'm mean...there are only so many 10th Row center seasts at a ___________ concert(insert favorite group here)! Isn't there some extra credit that we could do to boost our GPAs?"

RA- (considering) "Well....hmmmm......Assuming we don't go with the ROUND TABLE, route..." (coming up with a kind, generous and wonderful answer) As you are all so brilliant, and all so socially minded, and dedicated to your fellow man..."

All Female students: (in unison) "YES, WE ARE!!"

RA - (jovially & enthusiastically) "Then, if you go on some fact-finding missions and exploratory tutoring session with the GUYS FROM M.I.T. **THAT** will earn you extra points! The nerdier the better! Remember, in the not so distant past, I was considered kind of geeky myself, so you never know..."

All Female students: (in unison) "Ahhhh nooooo........"

---Cut to the airspace above M.I.T. dorms.---

Pilot of 747 jet to co-pilot: "Did you just hear that?"

Co-Pilot: "Yes! If I didn't know better, I swear that sounded like the sound of a thousand male nerds squeeing...Never get in the way of a squeeing nerd. They're known to charge when female prey is sighted."

Pilot: "Thanks, Harry. Words to live by. Now about those Boston fans..."

And so it came to pass that one Mr. Armitage, with deliberation and non-malice aforethought, helped the social lives of many socially-challenged male nerds. (And some of the females had good times too!) Thus endeth our story. Good Night my friends.

P.S. Okay, so, I've had no lunch and it's now almost 7 pm. My blood sugar is plumetting and my silliness has rocketed out of control. Love this discussion! You guys are the BEST! Cheers!

I love it! You need to get low blood sugar more often! And here I was just going to come up with some witty one-liner to caedhe's reply. Your minific pretty much sums up what would happen. I can see him sending everybody off to find nerds. Anything to distract us all from the REAL attraction in class. ;)I wonder what a thousand male nerds squeeing sounds like? I've heard a hundred or so squee, but never a thousand. Must be astounding.

[karen747]

Ahhh, but the REAL question is....
- A low sub-sonic rumble a la bison?
- Or the high-pitched SQUUEEEEEEE of sterotype?
Enquiring minds want to know. Heh.
Glad you liked it...Now, I seriously must fuel up! ;-) Manana.

[caedhe]

was sadly disappointed by male nerd squees at Comic-Con - since they tended to be caused by certain high priced "action figures" rather than attractively costumed women. That's okay, I thought her costume was nice.

OMG, I love you guys soooo much. Karen, we are cutting off your food supply and keeping you at low blood sugar levels. So much fun/craziness ensues.

PS: Would you be willing to help me put together that course catalog? We've already got some great ideas, but I was going to compile them if no one else was.

[aceofhadeon]

Oooh, can I help too? *puppy eyes* (BTW, I'll be sending y'all what I've worked up for the Guy Dream explanation soon.)

This is what we have so far:

Robin Hood Gymnasium for Mental Gymnastics

Alternate Explanations 102 ,
Advanced Villainous Acts Justification 401 (RA himself taught this course via televised distance lectures).
Crack Theories 310 (now with actual crack!),
Historical Revisionism 420,
Modern Revolutions in Physics of the Impossible
Advanced Denial and Adorable Evil Henchman Psychology
major in Alternate Realities and Deeply-Rooted Motivations,
minor in Clueless Emotionally-Stunted Woobie Behavioral Science.
Gisborne Apologetics 344
Advanced Knot-Tying and Restraint Methods 202
Headdesk 101,
Anachronistic Costuming 118 (sponsored by The Gap Sherwood), Canon Denial 225,
Advanced Whatthefuckery,
Crossovers 465.

[caedhe]

Brilliant. I love it. Maybe we could also write up short course descriptions for some of these - based off of the previous discussions since some of those are just to priceless not to include?

[aceofhadeon]

Excellent! Would hardly be an official course catalog without descriptions. Finally my hours of reading course listings come in handy! How shall we divvy up the description writing? I can take my Alternate Explanations 102, Advanced Knot-Tying and Restraint Methods 202, and Advanced Villainous Acts Justification 401 at the least.

[caedhe]

Maybe we should post what we have in a new post and collect some thoughts there. This group seems to work really well with each other. We could write up our ideas, compare notes, come to a consensus and publish. What do you think?

[aceofhadeon]

I think you're a genius, that's what I think. *nods* Will the post be here on your page/journal?

[caedhe]

Sure, we can put it here - if that works for all of you. I'll set it up on Wednesday. I'm gonna be at Disneyland tomorrow. Let me know if you have any other suggestions.

[aceofhadeon]

Sweet! Will do.

Have fun at Disney! Disneyworld's better (and only 2 hours from my house!). ;) Go to it's a Small World so your dreams can be haunted by scary children.

[karen747]

This all sounds great, folks. Count me in. ;-)

[aceofhadeon]

What I've heard is more low-pitched. Low frequency, sort of. I think they can use it like the elephants use their ELF calls.
