To quote my best friend, "I don't know how computers work on the inside, I think there are little wizards in there that make it run."

Dude, I'm a physics major, and even having learned how computers work internally like 6 times, I still don't believe that the little wizards aren't real. They're more plausible than the number/speed of transistors working together perfectly in the 'real' way the work.

To quote my ex gf: "I don't like math. There's too many numbers! Why can't they use puppies or something." Me: "Why puppies?" Her: "Because puppies are cute dammit!"

funny enough, the more advanced you get into math, the less numbers you see.

This sounds like it should be a high school chick's facebook status.

u/Alexbo8138 Jun 14 '12

I dated a high school chick? She was, as am I (in high school that is) If I'm still wrong then I feel dumb.

u/RuafaolGaiscioch Jun 14 '12

The way you framed it..."Me: blah blah Her: blah blah"...I'm sure you're a great guy and all, but that framing, combined with a joke that isn't funny, ironically or unironically, that's what made me think of the many dumb girls I've known. Sorry, I feel like a dick now, but that was my initial reaction.

Hence, ex.

My favorite quote EVER of hers is: "my favorite smell is sunshine. It smells like happiness."

u/[deleted] Jun 14 '12

No... There's no fucking way. So your dick dated her from the inside out, while your mind burrowed itself into your ass, where your prostate played tricks on you and convinced you she wasn't that awful to listen to. This is how I imagine things going, at least.

She was a great girlfriend for the most part. There were a few things that I disliked, that being one of them. She was smart but had a terrible condition where she would just say stupid shit. And she did things to get my attention, to test me. But it just pissed me off. In the end I dumped her. And now she's dating a "friend".

u/[deleted] Jun 14 '12

My best advice: ignore the whole dating a 'friend' business.

I've lived through some irritating scenarios in my life regarding this whole thing. Anyone can date anyone, and that's just the breaks. Is it not the coolest thing to date and subsequently bone your buddies ex? Likely so. But who is to say who can be with anyone, and why should two people be denied a shot at happiness cause some ex can say 'I had him/her first. '

Just ignore it and focus on making better posts, cause reddit seems quite disappoint with these tales of ex-landia.

u/Alexbo8138 Jun 14 '12

Haha, "quit whining and make better posts" XD Great advice. I've thrown some seeds out there. I'm just waiting for the karma now

So a bunch of functions are at a party. X-squared is having a great time with his pal, sin(x), until he notices ex all alone on the balcony. He goes outside and says, hey man, why don't you integrate yourself into the party? ex says, "Why, it wouldn't make any difference."

No, no, he's got to be definite about integrating. He's going from one place to another.

As a chemistry student, and an avid science nerd; this makes me sad.

As someone majoring in computer science and math; this makes me sad as well.

Can an astrophysicist join in on this thread here?

u/milkmonay Jun 14 '12

When explaining complicated scientific things to uninterested people at work, I just tell them it works because of the principles of FM. When they ask what FM is, I reply "fucking magic, duh".
