| 100% | BLAH | Boring Lecture, All Humdrum. |
Angela Brett |
| 100% | BORED IN CLASS | Because Of Really Elementary, Dull Instruction, Now Completing Latest Acronyms Stack. See? |
Angela Brett, who was getting ACRONYMS 2.2 ready for release during a boring class, and had to think of an acronym to import so that the stack would know it had Update List Grape. |
| 100% | EIGENVECTOR | Excess Instructions Generate Exhausting, Not-Very-Exciting Classes. Tedium Often Results. |
Angela Brett, while sitting through a lecture about eigenvalues and eigenvectors (a topic which everyone in the class had learnt about at least once) which was being taught agonisingly slowly. Science:Mathematics |
| 92% | EIGENVECTOR (2) | Employing Ineffective Gaussian Elimination's Not Very Efficient... (we) Can Think Out Results! |
Angela Brett, during the same lecture as the first EIGENVECTOR, when the lecturer insisted on using Gaussian elimination while finding the eigenvectors of 2 by 2 matrices despite having already pointed out that it wouldn't give us any extra information. Science:Mathematics |
| 100% | FACTS (2) | Fundamentals Are Conveyed Too Slowly |
Angela Brett |
| 100% | FIRST-YEAR STUDENTS | Friggin' Idiots Require Slow Teaching, Yeah? Educators Aren't Right - Some Totally Understand. Don't Emphasise Non-Troublesome Stuff. |
Angela Brett, after going to a first-year computer science lecture and being reminded of how much lecturers treat first-year students like idiots. |
| 92% | FUNDAMENTALS | First-year Undergraduates Not Dumb, Although Many Evidently Need To Always Learn Slowly |
Angela Brett |
| 100% | GEOMETRY | Golly, Elementary Orthogonal Matrices Excite These Randy Youths. |
Angela Brett, during a boring first-year algebra lecture. Science:Mathematics:Geometry |
| 83% | IDIOT | I Don't Intend to Overstudy This! |
Angela Brett, when one of her lecturers was spending an extremely long time explaining a very simple concept. |
| 89% | INFURIATED BY SLOW TEACHERS | It's Not Fair! Using Repeated Iterations is Always Tedious, Especially Done By You... Such Lavish Overuse of Whiteboard Takes Eons. Anyone Calculates in Head, Even Retarded Students! |
Angela Brett... (see SPANNING TREES for an explanation.) |
| 100% | OH, FOR GOD'S SAKE! | Oh, How Friggin' Obvious! Really Getting Over Done. Stop Sharing Asinine Knowledge Endlessly. |
Angela Brett, during another annoyingly slow lecture. |
| 100% | SLEEP (2) | Something Lecturers Evidently Enjoy Provoking! |
Angela Brett |
| 100% | SLOW TEACHERS | Subject Learnt Over Weekend! To Educate A Class He Excessively Reduces Speed. |
Angela Brett Education:Occupations |
| 87% | SPANNING TREES | Silly! Prim's Algorithm's Not Necessarily Iterated (so) Numbingly Gradually. This is Really Easy, Elementary Stuff! |
Angela Brett, when a tutor was spending an hour finding the minimum cost spanning tree for a graph using Prim's algorithm, writing every single step on the board. It could have all been done in about 45 seconds - basically a game of join the dots where instead of finding the next number to decide which dot to go to next, we have to work out the minimum of a few numbers. Science:Mathematics |
| 86% | TOO SLOW FOR ME | This is Obvious! Omit Such Long Orations... Why Furnish Observations (with) Ridiculously Meticulous Explanations? |
Angela Brett, when the lecturer spent at least twenty minutes explaining that when you add a multiple of a number to another number, say x, then x will still have the same remainder as before when divided by that number. |
| 90% | TOO SIMPLE | This Overly Ordinary Study Isn't Mathematically Pleasing... Lecture is Elementary. |
Angela Brett, during a boring first-year algebra lecture. |
