Dumbest things you ever heard.

I say some pretty dumb shit.

That's true.

I might... Do go on.

Well, one that anyone could relate to happened back in our second month of classes, and in our first actual 3d class. We were all newbs at that point, but this one guy thought he was THE best ever at it because he had opened 3dsmax a couple times. So anyways, we're all modeling our shitty super low poly characters. Hes modeling a dragon. So midway through the class he has like the front half of the model done, and he starts rigging it. I cant remember what his argument was, but he started arguing with the lab instructors about why he should start rigging when the model wasnt even done yet. It was pretty stupid. But thats not the good part, the good part was when he finished the model and started showing it off to everyone by using his PSP to show a render. The best time was in our class when he had just finished it. He walked over to this girl who was still working on her model, and he says "Hey, that looks pretty good!" She says "Thanks" and then he says "Its almost as good as my model" and making sure he put emphasis on the word "almost." He then proceeded to show her his shit model off his psp.

Another time, after we had taken all of our modeling classes this one guy asked why our teacher never laid out his UVs on Nurbs surfaces, but always had perfect textures (Nurbs have inherent UVs, and never need to be laid out).

Then this there was a guy who was a "completer" meaning he already had an associates degree in computer animation, but was "completing" the courses in order to get the bachelors degree. He already had a freaking degree in this, but still didnt know about tools like "Insert Edge Ring" Smooth Proxies, displacement maps, normal maps, or that hitting the "3" key would show you the actual curvature of a Nurbs surface. This was all stuff he should have known 3 months into the program, and been using in every class, but somehow he missed it all, and STILL graduated with a degree.

Anyways, this is why I hate dragons and dont give any extra respect to people with degrees in something.

An American once told me Scotland, wasn't real, only made up in a fable.

• "Vacuums are nothings. We only mention them to let them know we know they are there."
• "Soloman had 300 wives and 700 cucumbers."
• "The Papal bull was a mad bull kept by the Pope in the Inquisition to trample on Protestants."
• "Merchants appeared and roamed from town to town exposing themselves and organising fairies in the countryside."

I heard a couple of funny comments on the radio from some of the NFL players, who came to London to take part in the game at Wembley. One commented on how he didn't even realise they spoke English in England, and another said how great it was to be in London and he couldn't wait to see the Eiffel Tower.

Other than that, I knew a kid who was convinced that the moon was only a few miles away.

It was... Hadrian's wall was made to stop people falling into the sea. Of course, people were alot shorter then.
