Update about Anti-Sociality and Coco
Last semester I was taking algebra and sitting in on calc I. This semester I'm taking calc II and sitting in on pre-calc. There's this dude who was in calc I with me and in chemistry with me (although that barely counts, because there were over a hundred people in chem with me). Now he's taking calc I again and he's sitting in on pre-calc with me. So we've been seeing each other around the tutoring center and in pre-calc. Polite gentleman that I am, I always raised my eyebrows in greeting when I saw him, and he would nod. We may have even ventured a "hi, how are you?" a few times. Yesterday we actually spoke! A full fledged conversation! The professor in pre-calc was giving an exam, and we discussed whether we should take it, being that we're just sitting in. Then we discussed optimization problems and what a sneaky trick it was for Prof. Destina to ask the calc I students to graph a rational function which had no vertical asymptotes. To those who say it can't be done: I socialized with a classmate, without any preliminary small talk bullsh*t.

ReplyDeleteNice. Nerd.
ReplyDeleteThat's how friends are made in an institutionalized environment; speaking about the school/work situations first, and after a while maybe also some personal stuff, etc..
ReplyDelete(i.e. the reality of the small talk theory is not exactly as it was presented here previously)
Ha. ..Coco theorem..
E - you go get 'em!
ReplyDeleteyay! ur not as anti-social as u thought u were!! so he speaks after all. good for u.
ReplyDeleteThanks all for the encouragement (except le7).
ReplyDeleteWhat'd you do man? You've got ads all over the place..
ReplyDeleteThis is very exciting, next thing you'll be facebook friends!
ReplyDeletehow was le7 being discouraging?
ReplyDeleteyou are far less anti social than you claim to be, you know.
and i'm not sure i should ask this, but i'm going to risk it: what is the Coco theorem, and who were you disproving it with?
ReplyDeletecheerio: read his last post.
ReplyDeleteI didn't get e's comment until I went back and re-read my comment and a laughed. It was a funny comment. Kol hakavod le7. Shkoyach.
ReplyDeleteshriki: a man's gotta make a buck.
ReplyDeletesarabonne: I still don't know his name. But you're right. That pinnacle of camaraderie, facebook friendship, cannot be too far off.
#le7: calling me a nerd is not really discouraging, but it doesn't really make me want to run off and chat with strangers.
Cheerio: All you people who say I'm not anti-social never see me around people I'm not comfortable with.
I just googled coco's theorem thinking its a real zach. I guess thats what happens when you skip the comments and the previous post.
ReplyDeleteawwww
ReplyDeleteThat's not what I meant. But I guess there is an awww factor here.
ReplyDeletei usually manage to find the aww factor.
ReplyDeletee- thats not anti social nism, thats just plain shy
