A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

I want to send a link of that FAQ to all the boys I know and say, "This is how to do it."

I'd really rather not get beaten up repeatedly, thank you very much.

Just so you all know, I'm doing math to put off figuring out how to get a count of our faculty as of a date in the past. I'm not sure my brain's sufficiently present.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

"Don't fear the cereal" was originally going to be the title of Blue Oyster Cult's biggest hit. Then they realized the Grim Reaper was potentially more terrifying than Captain Crunch. True story.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

I thought I had an answer but was wrong. Anybody?

My best guess would be f(c) = 4, assuming c = 2, but it's just a guess.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Can you imagine the power of an infinite number of Theremins, bringing down defenses, shattering eardrums.

Somehow "piercing" and "woo-woo-woo" don't quite go together in my mind.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

The function f is differentiable on the interval 0 < x < 4. If f(1)=1 and f(3)=7, then for some 1 < c < 3, f'(c) must be equal to:

1, 2, 3, 4, or 6?

3. It's the mean value theorem: for some value on the interval, the slope must be equal to the average slope, which is (7-1)/(3-1) = 3.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Jon, that is just about the sweetest story ever. Even with the Tex Avery moments, just so damn sweet. Millions of congratulations all over again!
