Nice video. That's an expensive knife! Would make a good gift maybe.

Oh I hope that company manufactures firearms as well - Surefire is a terrible name for knives! :p

Also, I win chemistry lab.

The experiment: use a buret and centigram balance, record data, then graph. The substance is plain water. Find the density, compare to accepted value at known temperature.

My percent error: 0.18%.

Suck it, chem. Suck it.

I have no conscious idea of what any of you sound like, no voice in my head reading your posts, but if I heard your voices for real, I would probably be surprised in every case.

I have voices for all of you guys in my head. They are probably all wrong too.

You sound like George Bush
Motf sounds like what I think TridenT sounds like
Busy sounds like the indian dude from Big Bang Theory
I sound like jason statham from The Mechanic

LOL. A lab question - what errors can you think of to explain your results being higher or lower?

Um, let's see... I'm off by .18%. At that point, a few specks of dust could have fallen into the beaker. I mean, honestly?

Fine, honestly, you guys didn't have distilled water, you made me use tap. I bet they'll be pissed if I write that though.

Sr., I hope!

I had shorty's voice similar to the George Costanza character on Seinfeld, maybe just a little higher pitched. I'll have to think of close characters for the others.

Bane's musings.

I'm one of the top two in the chemistry lab. I was the first done in the first lab, second done in the second lab. The two of us work right across from each other, and there is no question we're both head and shoulders above our classmates. They ask us questions, we can and do answer. As of now, my only grade in the lab is a 100% from the first mini-lab. I suspect at least a few people share that grade.

It is hard for me to think of characters that have similar voices to MotF and sdifox. I picture Barfo sounding like Antonio Banderas.

I'm the top in the circuits lab, and that isn't even a competition. I finished, packed up my stuff, and waited another five minutes before the TA finished helping someone so I could hand in my lab report. As I was walking out the door, the next couple people were finishing up. That's a 40 minutes lab, out of the 3 hour max time period, and I only needed 35 minutes. The first lab session took me about 25 minutes, despite faulty equipment, and I never saw anybody else leaving.

Circuits class, I already knew I was very high in the overall class of 40-50 students, and my prof. just confirmed that, that I am indeed blowing away most of the confirmed EE majors, despite being just ULA myself.

I almost want to stay ULA and keep trolling engineering classes.

Chemistry I'm not sure where my standing is, probably still above average. Calculus, there are no grades yet.

I've got it. If I had to choose an actor for the voice of sdifox, I'd pick George Takei (Mr. Sulu) in his younger days.
