Guess what right? If you're referring to Jones and medium lessons, I don't think it was much in doubt.  |

I wish I had something to say about this page, but I really don't. Except that I adore the last two panels.

"Come with me if you want to live."
I agree, Kat's line in the second-to-last panel is great.

My classes were 40 minutes so double would be 1hr20. Physics was fun. Chemistry not so fun. I got called back in biology class one time for falling asleep. And possibly snoring.
Despite all the happening around the court, I am only just now coming to the realization how odd Gunnerkrigg Court is.
It wasnt the robots, the shadows, the tic-tocs, the holograpy room, the mechanical horse, or the wooden hand sticking in the middle of an artificial environment room.
It Medium Class. How do you even place that? Is Annie in Sciences? Arts? Alt-Sciences? Do they have an O-levels qualifications papers for that one?

They prob'ly have special O levels for that. Did you ever read Groosham Grange?

I always enjoyed physics double hours. Now that I actually study it at university it's getting to be a bit much.  |

I think it was obvious that Jones was there for Annie and medium stuff, after all she is kinda like the expert regarding the ppl from the forest (remembering her conversation with the principal) Both girls look so sweet, specially the last two pannels  |

Haha, that crazy Kat  I'm not a math/science person, though I find it fascinating, so two hours of physics would just make my head explode. Annie seems pretty calm; I'd be freaking out if an authority figure told me to come with them right after I cheated on a test. |

Man, a double lab for me would be too much. A double lecture, I could handle, that'd even be fun. That is only two hours. But our labs are already three hours. I don't think I could handle six straight hours of anything.
But I'm gonna assume that is a two hour physics class, not a six hour one, and say "So true, Kat, so true!"

I laughed at the idea of the science of "double physics". Though I cringed reading this thread and remembering electromagnetics.

If Annie *is* going to start taking classes now with Parley and Smith, I'd like to see how that goes. Parley didn't seem too fond of Annie when they met in Chapter Fourteen (accusing her of this trouble being her fault for falling off the bridge - though she was partly right about that - and having a sour expression on her face when the Headmaster was talking to Annie afterwards). I don't need to be a medium to foresee trouble to come.

Todd, you cannot post again ever now. Unless you plan on going for 111 more, and then stopping.

Having grown tired of my infinitely clever comments waiting hours to be presented to the world on the main page, only to be swiftly swallowed up by the relentless march of the archive, I have opted to create an account in this exceptionally convenient and useful public web forum, where I expect my comments shall be lavished with praise and adored beside the very comic itself for years to come.
Ahem. Being a foolish, unworldly American I too was under the impression that the class of 'Double Physics' was devoted to the study of some science associated with that great science of physics but in a fundamental way superior to ordinary physics, extending beyond them into some grander, more awesome realm where things do not merely happen, they double happen.
A rapid brainstorm on my part quickly produced a short list of other courses Gunnerkrigg Court students might expect to find on their schedule:
Abstract Draftsmanship
Cryptography
Elements Of Flight
Extraterrestrial Geology
Half Math
History of History
Industrial Architecture
Non-Euclidean Geometry
Precambrian Biology
Radical Gardening
Theory Of Narrative
Urban Conservation

Abstract Draftsmanship Cryptography Elements Of Flight Extraterrestrial Geology Half Math History of History Industrial Architecture Non-Euclidean Geometry Precambrian Biology Radical Gardening Theory Of Narrative Urban Conservation I'm looking at Half Math, wondering if Double Half Math would be some wonderful dynamic equilibrium. similarly, Annie now would appear to have been transferred to Double Medium. Is that a dress size or a type of burger? Whoa whoa whoa man, speak so that us silly Los Angeles valley boys can understand you. You don't need to make your forum posts sound like a Penny Arcade news post. Our fellow friend here has inspired within me an idea both intriguing and terrible SIMULTANEOUSLY. Perhaps, on one day every year, we would endeavour to talk like Tycho; forever branding it "Talk like Tycho Day" as it were. Grand though this scheme may be, I fear the lofty goal of a challenge of the verbose will inevitably degenerate into gibberish, or worse, DOUBLE ENTENDRE. |
