did anyone here earn their degree in physics?

[p0ink]

surely someone has.

i know the shadow was/is a chemist...so there must be some other science people here.

I believe Sassy69 and Chesty have. Samoth is a physics major. Most real people stick with Engineering degrees tho

 

[p0ink]

what line of work are they in (the non-engineering folks)?

Also I think Scotsman is a geologist.

 

[Bonkme2]

I have a minor in Physics...

 

[slickdadd]

Sorry. My degree was in power.

 

[foxxie]

I have Pharmacy Degree so you go figure.

 

[jackangel]

no, i bought mine

Nathan has an undergrad in astrophysics, currently working on a masters in some field of pysics (does Canada have the Facebook? lol)

I graduated in Physics and Math. The Math is always useful even if only as a way of organising thoughts. The Physics, after almost 30 years of disuse, has faded to the point where I'm confident of following a conversation but not always of being able to contribute.

lol @ a brit saying 'math'.

Physics and Maths have got to be two of the hardest subjects to study.

Point taken but my middle-school teacher always called it 'math' and it annoyed enough people that I stuck with it.

Fair enough. I thought you were just trying to fit in

American slang is funny though. I think i might start finishing all my sentences with 'period'. Period.

or...werd.

and i'm gonna start saying 'i could care less' when i really mean 'i could not care less'.

I knew a German guy who often said, "I could give a shit about that".

I knew someone who always carried two pins in his lapel waiting for the time that someone said, "For two pins, I'd ...". It's not an expression one hears much anymore.

I was a math major but at UT math & physics majors share a building, for what it's worth (not much I know).

It's become one of my pet hates.

The things people say without thinking amazes me. I don't think i've ever seen anyone from US say "i couldn't give a shit"...only "I could".

Do these guys not realise that they're saying exactly what they don't want to say?

Of course not.

Most also say: "I could care less" when what they really mean is, "I couldn't care less."

While we're at it, why do people say they need to take a shit? You don't take a shit, you leave one, man! (courtesy George Carlin)

Sassy69 has a degree in physics.
