The Bonfire. (Burning textbooks right now. Care to join me?)
 
Yep. This'll be my thread. -hugs the thread-

Not gonna put any fanciness onto it, or anything.

Feel free to come in and chat and all...There's a possibility my brain's not completely dead yet.

Can I chip in my gym text book for the bonfire? XD

Most useless workbook ever. XD

Also, I BROUGHTED THE MARSHMALLOWS AND PARTY POPPERS! :D

Obbiesan 05-16-2012 12:50 AM

But i don't have textbooks Espy >_<

Quiet Man Cometh 05-16-2012 12:52 AM

I don't burn my textbooks. The nice ones, I sell or trade back for money, the mean ones I send to Africa.

Notes on the other hand...

Espy 05-16-2012 12:53 AM

-spits the marshmallows on a twigs and starts roasting them-

Ah, s'ok, you can have some marshmallow too, Obbie. ...That reminds me, once my friends put the marshmallows on branches of poison ivy. Smart.

Reyoki 05-16-2012 12:53 AM

*brings lots of coursework from the past 3 years of college* I can burn this here, right?

Ultima 05-16-2012 12:54 AM

Rinni 05-16-2012 12:54 AM

*noms marshmallows; yay sugary goodness!*

I'd sell my books back, but I'd only get 10-11 bucks a book, and that's only if it's still in the plastic wrap. >.<

*Zane 05-16-2012 12:54 AM

-tosses tablet on the roast- ... >.> it p_____d me off..

NikkoGallarado 05-16-2012 12:55 AM


Sad that this was not around when I was done with school.

Espy 05-16-2012 12:56 AM

Reyoki 05-16-2012 01:03 AM

I find it amusing that Espy has no nose at the moment.

NikkoGallarado 05-16-2012 01:05 AM


Yeah I know it is a little odd XD. -throws in some paper work from work and other things-

I am the manry-est of men!

Espy 05-16-2012 01:05 AM

...-headdesking-

Actually, more like...."head-stats-homeworking-ing"

NikkoGallarado 05-16-2012 01:08 AM


So you have summer classes Espy?

I am the manry-est of men!

Espy 05-16-2012 01:10 AM

Yes, but they haven't started yet. What I'm working on right now is AP crap.

NikkoGallarado 05-16-2012 01:11 AM


I feel you will have no life at time soon.

I am the manry-est of men!

Quiet Man Cometh 05-16-2012 01:14 AM

There are PE textbooks?

Espy 05-16-2012 01:14 AM

"Sometime soon" might have started some while ago, Nikko.

*Zane 05-16-2012 01:16 AM

Saith 05-16-2012 01:17 AM

Yep, everyone at my school the book is so required that you will literally fail if you don't buy the book. You use it for assignments and stuff so much and it's just an annoying class I hate it ><

Espy 05-16-2012 01:20 AM

Whyyyyy?! -punts SAT prep books into the fire-

Quiet Man Cometh 05-16-2012 01:24 AM

*has only one measly binder of notes to burn.*

I hang onto my English books because I do tend to look at those more.

NikkoGallarado 05-16-2012 01:33 AM


I shall burn all my math books. . . . .>_< evil math~!

I am the manry-est of men!

Quiet Man Cometh 05-16-2012 01:52 AM

I can't bring myself to burn books. Funny though. Tear the pages out and then there's no issue.

Espy 05-16-2012 02:19 AM

Actually, I can't bring myself to actually do anything to books...even highlighting is a bit...-erk-

Quiet Man Cometh 05-16-2012 02:32 AM

I used to feel that way until I started college. Hooray for owning your own books that you my scribble all over them! I actually read Prometheus Unbound from my dad's old book on Shelley's poetry so that book now has two generations of notes in it.

Mizeria 05-16-2012 02:36 AM

-throws coding book unto the fire-

Screw you java.

Annnywaaays;

HIIII

Espy 05-16-2012 02:40 AM

-gives Mizzy a half-asleep wave-

Mizeria 05-16-2012 02:43 AM

-hugs espy-

Stats is really killing you isn't it?

Espy 05-16-2012 02:45 AM

Mhm. I don't get it at all. Here, lemme quote something from a chat I had with a friend...

Quote:

tbh, my brain doesn't understand stats.
I mean, see...
Calc...you can at least visualize most of it.
You know, area, slope, 3D crap, volumes, rotations, whatnot.
And it's more...abstract in a way.
Just like...algebra with a ton of variables, except...calc doesn't have that many variables.
But you kind of know what I mean?
It's like...Algebra + Geometry, but harder.
But I can understand that.
Stats, on the other hand...
It's all real-life and concrete.
There's no abstract-ed-ness whatsoever.
And I have to know which test out of eight or ten to carry out, and what's classified as what...
and what z, t, z*, t*, p, p hat, confidence intervals, and...there's something else I;m forgetting...I have to knoww hat those all are.
It's infuriating.
