   There’s been a few times non stormtroopers put on a stormtroopers helmet and complain about not being able to see well.

   Just realized every time my company moved I got less and less privacy until it reset.

   First office – I had a private office

   Second Office – I had a cubical with high walls

   Third Office – Shared “cubical” space with a low wall (2 people per space)

   Fourth Office – Completely open space, but I at least managed to snag a desk with my back to a wall

   Fifth/Current Office – Work from home

   Because of reading too much Calvin, at first, I couldn’t recognize the elephant in the first panel. I kept trying to see a T-Rex.

   Electrical stimulation of muscles can help tone muscles, if used correctly, which those machine rarely did. It does not burn fat/calories, and it would only provide cardio work out if applied directly to the heart, at which point you’re talking about a pacemaker

   Teachers wouldn’t say a word because it is a great demonstration of a fulcrum, and a useful example when starting to learn physics.

   Finding out about having to learn trig will be a bad sine.

   Yeah, I know the issue of dealing with “completion anxiety”. I often have to tell myself, just focus on what I can do right now, and ignore the rest. Which now that I am typing this I wonder if I learned to do that because of my experience as a TA

   Wow, those 13 years have really aged Sal. While Dana just has a different hair style. Is Dana using her powers to remove the extra years from herself and give them to Sal?

    When I was in college, I was work as a Teach Assistant for intro Computer Programming classes. A lot of students would come to my office hours for help on their homework. There were a number of students who stopped coming to my office hours when they realized I would just give them the answers. What always surprised me were the number of students who thought they didn’t understand the material, but actually did. More often than not I would start with “If I wasn’t here what would be the first thing you would try”, followed by me repeating “ok, and then what would you do”, until they solved the homework. Usually without me having to correct them or give them any additional information. At the end I would always point out this out to them, and tell them they know the material, and yet next homework assignment they would be right back.
