The Mathematics of Quantum Neutrino Fields; Tuesday, Period 4 [09/28].

"I hope you all have finished your worksheets from last week about testing the equations on your friends," Farnsworth said by way of introduction, "because otherwise, you get a big fat F. I'll have you turn them in at the end of class, though, so, if you want to scramble to make things up while I'm lecturing, you can."

He was feeling so magnanimous today.



"Today, we're going to go back to the week before last, not physically, but intellectually, and discuss the phenomenon of perpetual space-dimension perception distortion, better known as Bigger on the Inside, or BotI. You'll remember, the neutrino detector we explored was located inside the Zone Eater monster who ate us, despite the neutrino detector being much larger than the Zone Eater itself. This occurrence is far more common than you'd think, and, of course, there's a very simple, easy-to-understand and logical mathematics series of equations."

Which, of course, he launched into now. None of the equations were simple. They were definitely not easy to understand. And the logic was questionable.

And then he turned to the slide projector.

"Now, this Bigger on the Inside phenomenon can happen with a great many objects, creatures, or places. Many people have found countless uses from bags that seem to have no limit to how much they hold, for example, or perhaps there's a closet or other unsuspecting household items that can lead to entirely different worlds. Something as simple looking as a small tent could be quite comfy inside and don't even get me started on phone booths!"

Yes, he knew that wasn't a phonebooth, but he was trying to avoid a meta overload if he could help it. That was for a later chapter in the semester.

"We even have our very own locker that could fit under this category, but it adds another dimension with randomosity, as one may never know where they may end up. For the most part, most space-dimension distortions remain the same, with the exception of time passing or redecorating, so for things like Locker 327, you add an extra few steps to the equations, like" blah blah blah blah blah.



"Now, some people may make the argument that many of these space-dimension distortions are the work of 'magic,' but that's a load of poppycock!" He smack a hand on the board with the equations. "Scientists have worked hard to prove that it's scientifically possible. So, take some time, discuss amongst yourselves because I don't care, any experience you may have had with these and try to apply the equations that shows how its even mathematically impossible. Or make one up. I don't care, as long as it's mathematical sound."

Homework? Yup, Kate was scrambling something completely ridiculous together during the lecture.

Not her fault she'd been too high or tired or angry to do anything about it last week.

George was taking advice from her clone on this one. She scribbled a couple of paragraphs that seemed legitimate, and then filled the rest of the pages up with rambling, scribbling, and theories on ways to kill Dr. Farnsworth.

"Mason said he saw that once," George shared. "Some gross story about a girl and what she could do with a football."

Thank you for sharing, George.

Okay, if she actually had that ... club ... thing, then she'd probably need to ... tell Farnsworth?

And so she was hanging back after class. Dammit.

"I don't want to be," George snapped. "Look, I screwed up. I sent in a form and they were just supposed to give me detention and instead they're making me run a club."

Much worse punishment. Maybe that had been the point.

"I had to list a faculty advisor," George said. "But I don't know most of the faculty so I wrote your name down."

Faculty advisor? What was that supposed to mean? She'd picked one at random. And then had been hoping that the staff would think he had agreed to the prank, and therefore punish him as well.

Oh, the disgruntled old man face. Not fair.

"Apathy Club," she said. "I was being a smartass."

So ... her usual self, then.

Okay, he didn't need to be a dick ab--- oh.

Hey, he was oddly perfect.

That was really fucking unnerving, that her club fit in well with Professor Psycho.

"So what?" she said, folding her arms. "Fridays. You don't have to show up, either."
