Editing TrifectaOfBitterness
BrianYoung has proposed this counterpoint to the TrifectaOfHappiness offered by MacKenzieStuart. Whenever three things combine to make your life miserable, congratulations. You've found your very own personal TrifectaOfBitterness. You can now be miserable like the rest of us. Examples: * AlgoRithms exam, LSD prototype due, and trying to grade CS 70 without an answer key. --BrianYoung * The so-called GrandSlam sophomore schedule of taking Stems, E&M, and PChem simultaneously (bonus points for PChem lab). * Stems, E&M, and a SophomoreSeminarClass. ** Also stems, E&M, and CS60. *** Nonsense. CS60 is a welcome respite from those two, especially when it's ProfessorRan teaching. **** Nonsense, especially when it's ProfessorKeller teaching. * The PhysicsMajor 5th semester of fun: StatMech, TheoMech, and Fourier. Bonus points for ElectronicsLab. Bonus bonus points if it's BigFourier. * Clinic proposal, midterms week, and a total lack of good conversation. * Math 171 HW 7, HW 8, and HW 9. ** Scratch that: The Triple Trifecta: 3 homeworks to grade, 3 homeworks to do (in the same class), 3 midterms in a day and a half. ***Dude, I vote we use a new word for this new form of trifecta. It must also be an improperly used term having to do with horse racing. I vote we use "pari-mutuels," which is "a form of wagering that originated in France in which all money bet is divided up among those who have winning tickets, after taxes, takeout and other deductions are made" according to [http://www.citycom.com/daveydos/glossary.html this random glossary of horse racing terms]. --MacKenzieStuart * Comparative politics midterm of "define everything we've discussed...ever", midterm in your pussy-ass fake logic class, and the shocking realization that, yes, even if you spend all your time at East, you're still a HumMajor and are entitled to all the suck that implies --MacKenzieStuart * Overdue project, not-yet-overdue-but-will-be-if-I-don't-do-it project, and department politics. Alternately, raytracer, art project, and Japanese midterm. NOTE TO FROSH: NEVER TAKE GRAPHICS WITH ANYTHING ELSE HARD. LIKE OTHER CLASSES. -StephGrush * Don't even get me started. * Hammer, screwdriver, tool tray. ** No, those don't happen concurrently. Hard face, hammer head, hammer handle, on the other hand... *** The description says nothing about temporal simultaneity, only "whenever three things combine to make your life miserable". Hammer, screwdriver, and tool tray certainly fall under that heading. * A trifecta of trifectas: Classes [Pchem, Advanced Lab, Ochem with lab], Suitemate Angst [Girl who keeps turning the heat off, Girl who smokes in the suite, Girl who locked another girl in the bathroom with a random guy and didn't understand why she was upset], Summer Research Applications [On-Campus Chemistry, UW Biomaterials, UW Photonics] --ColleenSullivan
