Not that i know too much about life on a US campus but isn't it an incredibly stupid idea to crash into a room full of students, wearing a mask and wielding something that just has to be mistaken as a weapon? My impression from press is that because of all the killing sprees in US schools and universities and so on several institutions allow their students to wear guns? or at least the professors? And even if this this is a false picture i'm being painted by sensational press, isn't it still at least a cruel thing to do? Aren't people nervous about crazy folks shooting around? You can clearly see the professor twitching nervously. Maybe i'm seeing things too serious but in my perception there's enough of gun related violence in the US education system that would make joking around with such stuff a really bad idea.

I was wondering if someone would bring that up, *conan. It does seem particularly edgy, given another shooting spree recently (although this could have been filmed before that). Also, I'm guessing the Prof was in on it.

All in all, I wish my microeconomics 101 class had this entertainment value.

I know what you mean, although I honestly think it's a good idea to do stuff like this. It may sound a little over the top, but i would be happy to die in a killing spree, rather than live in a world where I can't even make a little joke or prank without fear of being shot by "accident". What kind of world would it be, where our fears control us to a point that doesn't allow us to be more than working and learning machines?

If the only information you get about the US is from sensationalist media and Hollywood entertainment, then you basically have no idea what life is like over here. Consider your sources. Having said that, there are few places in the world where you can run into a crowded room with a sword, steal a purse, make a woman scream, and not make people nervous.

Yes if the girl screams like crazy and he is pointing a gun around the room i could understand. But if it happened like in the video, i would instantly think it's some kind of flashmob/prank. It's not like a real killer would stand up in front of the crowd and declare "I am going to murder you all!" and start murdering people (although I don't know any mass murderers, so maybe they do it like that). And I don't think americans instantly take out their guns (and of course every american has one at hand all the time) when faced with unknown situations. I guess the reactions of the students in that video are pretty much the same you'd see in every other university.

Yea, it's not like people are getting shot because they're packin' a loaded iced tea bottle.

What does the professor write on the board at the end?


he wrote -OH and ...H

it's a hydroxyl group and a hydrogen atom. he treated the zorro "z" as if it was a carbon structure (butane), with each corner representing a carbon. in this case it'd be butanol. but he should have written one more "...H" on that corner, since carbon has four valence electrons. or he could have omitted the single "...H" as they are implied to fill out the remaining carbon structure.

Where's that one person in every college course when interruptions like this happens that gets vocal with statements like "I'm paying for this class with my hard earned money and want to learn! Stop screwing around!"
