Physics, Monday, Class #15, Period 4

[carter-i-am.livejournal.com]

The class had been handwavily contacted to meet Sam outside for the final class, so hopefully they were appropriately dressed for the weather and the proceedings.

"Hello, everyone," Sam greeted them cheerfully from where she was standing next to a table covered with lots of pumpkins of approximately the same size and weight. "Congratulations, you've almost made it through the class. All you have to do today is explain your pumpkin chucker design, what principles of physics you relied on primarily, and then, well, chuck your pumpkin. Whomever wins gets the J,GoB pie of their choice."

She paused. "No, I'm not baking it, calm down. No reason to sabotage this." After she'd cleared her throat, she continued, "I'd also like to thank you for being such an attentive class, and a pleasure to teach. I know the material has sometimes been dense, but I'm very proud of the effort you've put in and home that, at some point, something you've learned here will be useful."

Go with your bad handwave!

Romeo waited for Ichigo and prepared to start waving his hand right off.

Ichigo was there and all about the handwaving. "Think we can claim science explains itself?" he asked in a low murmur.

"We could compare it to the cat somehow," Romeo suggested in his own whisper. "The act of explaining destroys the explained, something like that."

Thanks to Hoshi's influence, the steam-powered chucker looked well-designed, rather than monstrous and crude.

"THIS," Sokka announced, with a grand sweep of his hand, "is the Sokkanator five-- uh. The Sokka-and-Hoshi-nator 5000! A miracle of pumpkin-chucking technology, constructed entirely of materials that are available in my universe. We've wedded eighteenth-century technology and twenty-fourth-century know-how into one AWESOME package!"

"It turns out that you can't beat good old-fashioned steam technology," added Hoshi. "It's been relied upon for generations and, more importantly, it won't explode."

Tosh waited for Chad so they could most likely handwave describe their project.

Chad was definitely there to help handwavey like the wiiiiiind! present the project with Tosh.

"Okay, so this is pretty much a trebuchet," Sam said. "Uh, with some handwavy, probably terrifying modifications." He proceeded to explain how a trebuchet worked with the skill of someone who'd had it explained to them by Tony Stark, then dumbed down to their level to Wikipedia.

Friday had an explanation written up on a piece of paper, half of which he would hand to Kevin to read if he was there.

Re: Explain your Project

[my-tragic-past.livejournal.com]

Kevin had mostly forgotten about this project. He did, however, recall who he said he would work with, so he made his way over to Friday.

"Um, dude, did you actually do this something with these things?" He waved his hands at the pumpkins.

Rodney looked around anxiously for John. He'd made some last minute modifications to the project that he wanted to explain to his partner. It wasn't that he thought his partner needed to know what he'd done, he just wanted a little recognition for his genius.

Fur fluffed out, John hopped over to Rodney and tried to look up at him through all the fur.

Naomi waited for Eve so that they could start to handwave? explain their project.

Re: Explain your Project

Eve showed up and was all about the handwavily explaining their project.

Rikku's so, so handwavy pumpkin chucker was a cannon, of sorts. With copious amounts of explosives fueling the charge.

Because explosives were always the right answer, if you were Rikku.

Chuck your pumpkins!

Talk to the TA

If/when he pings in.

Re: Talk to the TA

Rodney's here to give out last minute pumpkin chucker aid or if anyone wants to bother him talk to him.

Talk to Sam

[carter-i-am.livejournal.com]

She'll be over there with the tape measure, hopefully not covered in pumpkin

Thank you all for being such a wonderful class! It's been a lot of fun for me, and hopefully for you as well.
