Computer scientists and physics students Support Apolyton, pre-order Civilization IV

Gosh you can tell when you walk into a lecture room and there has been either a computer science or physics lecture...the room stinks awful.

Anyone other uni guys noticed this?

This is a troll, but it is also true. Compsci and physics kids are quite possibly the most pathetic people on the planet; horrible body odor is just one of the consequences of leading such a horrible "life". Poor bastards...

CS majors don't take very good care of themselves.

When 50% of your daily caloric intake comes from Coke, your body is bound to get screwed up.

This excess Coke drinking can be easily noticed by the oily, colorless skin

I think this must be the first sentence written in which both compsci and comb both feature.

Well I hope I get to verify this soon (I hope to get in). But I must say that in open courses (open to anyone) and the people who took part last time in entrance exams wouldn't fit this. They were many hot chicks too! I'm telling this is the case here, but then again I don't know who got in, maybe all hot chicks failed too and smelly people got in

But compsci department here has techno society, chicks in there are always pretty much hot, and we have lots of chicks in every department here. I'm not saying 50/50, but I would guess maybe 35/65?

I think they're taking intro courses. Once they find out what it's all about they usually decide to do something else.

As much as I don't like Bodds, I think he's certainly correct in general.

I don't notice a bad odor from people here though (this is Canada, we have showers and deodorant), but the people in CS are generally socially awkward, dressed weird, and generally ****ed up.

There's only one hot girl that I know of in all of my CS lectures since I started, and only a few hot guys...

I don't know many people who take comsci or physics - my friend takes the former (at Birmingham) and his personal hygeine is good - but I don't know in a lot of cases.

I don't think we share rooms with student taking sciences too much at Swansea (aside from the Esso Lecture Theatre, which everyone has at least 1 lecture a week in, so they get to stare at the ESSO logo for an hour).

The Esso Lecture theatre? That's corporate sponsorship taken a little too far, methinks.

Yup.

The funny thing is there's a black wire modernist sculpture on the wall, which looks just like two birds covered in oil.

Bery fitting

LOL.
We've got tons of those, we've got an Esso Lecture Theatre as well.

In addition to a Petro-Canada Lecture Theatre, ChevronTexaco Lecture Theatre, BP-Amoco Lecture Theatre...

Hull's lecture theatres have inspiring names like "S30" and "Blackburn Building Lecture Theatre 4".

Oddly enough, companies just aren't interested in our prestigious institution of higher education.
