The Mathematics of Quantum Neutrino Fields; Tuesday, Period 4 [10/05].

It appeared as though Farnsworth was not planning to waste any time getting into today's lecture. He was clearly a man with something to say, which meant he had to say it quickly before he forgot it.



"Last week," he said, "we talked about things that are bigger than they appear to be. This week, we're covering things that people think are much bigger than they actually are. Universes. Infinity. How much your relationship with your cute new boyfriend matters to the world. And, even more obnoxious and annoying, a parent or guardian's opinion on the significance of their spawn-slash-ward-slash-bastard redheaded stepchild!"

Looks like someone was not exactly pleased with how some of his parents' weekend encounters had gone.

"Now I assume you are all away of the Paradox Theory of Theorums, but let's review. It states that, contrary to popular belief and in able to continue to maintain classical, Oscar-winning motifs, the more someone says something is true, the more likely that it is, in fact, not true, and that the person saying it is a delusional, half-wit crackpt."

Take this class, for example...

"Usually," the Professor ranted on in his usual ramble, "a parent who speaking nothing but bad things about their child actually has a surprisingly bright, ingenuous, and clever little sprogling that will rise up to defy these conventions and succeed in life. Meanwhile, conversely, parents who tout the loudest about how freaking special their little gifted blonde haired golden little half-pints are, George Lass, the more imbecilic and useless they truly turn out to be!"

Not that he was pointing any fingers.

Just ignore the finger that was pointing.

"Now, this isn't always the case. Sometimes, a child deemed worthless really is worthless, and sometimes a gifted progeny does have some talent, but, as you will clearly see, there is a very helpful and easy equation to determine whether a situation falls into the category of the Paradox Theory of Theorem."

So easy, in fact, that it filled up the whole board as Farnsworth explained it.



"So you'll find," said Farnsworth, "that the qualities of offspring compared to their parents' opinions can vary greatly, while, in almost all cases, infomerical products will inevitably fall under the Paradox. Let's take some time to discuss other things that might fit under the Paradox Theory, run it through, and see what we come up with, shall we?"

And, really, if not even on of them managed to bring Farnsworth's sanity up to the plate in some fashion, he'd be utterly disappointed in them. Even if they would be wrong, because Farnsworth certainly never made any claims to being sane.

[[ OCD, it is a coming is one thing that shall never be a paradox, except with the ending of the world. ]]
