Math stuff. Matrices.
And you're sure this isn't just some fanboy thing? 'Cause I've fought more than a couple pimply, overweight vamps that called themselves Lestat.

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

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Company too SUCCESSFUL to make complete sentences. Understanding what the hell we are talking about NOT a requirement.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I just printed out all the directions that I think I might possibly need for my trip to LA this weekend.
Whee!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Um. Vector multiplication. Like torque? Or spin? You can describe, for example, which way a cat is curled by curling your right hand in the same way, heel of hand by the tail and fingers at the nose. If your thumb points up, the cat is spin up, the other way is spin down. Our cats tend to obey an exlusion principal in that if they are in the same room they will have opposite spins. The dog's spin may match or not, there doesn't seem to be a rule.
That's not better, is it? I'm sorry.

As explanations go, that one had to set a MEGO record. Perhaps the mathy weren't rendered unconscious in less than three syllables, but I about fell out of my chair due to feeling stupidness.

Okay, good thing I didn't pursue that teaching career.
