If you want an example of me (kinda, not really) using my degree when I write, just look at the climax of Sorrow's Victor:

Jem, in all of his infinite wisdom, takes apart a ton of mines and soaks the explosive material in rubbing alcohol before lighting that shit on fire and blowing himself up (he survives tho, obv). When he blows himself up he sends himself flying and hits the wall of the arena.

Now, logically speaking, it could technically be possible for these things all to happen. Rubbing alcohol is extremely flammable (causing the fire which causes the burns Jem has) and would work as enough of a catalyst to spark the explosive material (which, coming from land mines, is meant to explode outward with shrapnel), generating an outward force enough to send a person flying. Couple that with Jem already running towards the wall and him being far enough from the explosion, it is a (slim) possibility that he could be thrown enough to hit the wall and not be immediately killed on impact (granted having Capitol medical attention afterwards, since he would still die without high tech medical attention)

But here's where the student in me shivers cause my professors would crash tf out over this weakass string of assumptions. My problems with this conclusion include:

not a clue what that explosive material is made out of, so no way to know what kind of force it generates (we only know that, within the landmine, it's enough to kill someone near instantly if stepped on)

Given how big the arena is, it's hard for me to believe that Jem was sent that far and he didn't die as soon as he hit the wall (aka: JEM SHOULD HAVE DIED, BY GOD IS IT A MIRACLE HE'S ALIVE)

Rubbing alcohol, although highly flammable, would need some help causing that great of a fire, which goes back to not knowing what the hell the explosive material is

Jem wasn't running the entire time/wasn't running at top speed, as he crouched down to protect his hearing and himself somewhat, so the momentum he would have already had is lessened

If we assume that the explosive material was strong enough, then yes it is technically possible for everything in this sequence to happen, but by God does the Engineer in me cringe every time I think about how terribly it would go if I pitched this to any of professors with any amount of confidence

Yk I always complained about my math classes and I'm just now realizing that's kinda weird when the occasion of people leaving my applied thermodynamics classes in tears were not few and far between

Sometimes it's a wonder I actually have a degree in this bs

Candle wax is fun because not only does it have a low melting point, it's heat conductivity is also shit which means it's safe (within reason, it's still a melted liquid) to play with

You ever read something that would have you personally fleeing the country if you ever did that

I know you’re probably super busy but I HAVE to share this with someone. I found this absolutely insane shirt at my job (thrift store) and it’s been killing me to imagine Silco in it

You can't drop something like this to my askbox and not expect me to draw something

Moms usually drop the kids off to their playdate, time for the dads to meet.

Y'all ever have that insanely rich friend?

Like I have a friend that is so rich it doesn't even occur to her that some people out there would kill a man for 20 bucks

She basically owns the entire Lululemon line of clothing, shops at exclusively high class shoe stores ("the quality is better"), owns 2 different houses both in an EXTREMELY nice part of town, owns a literal PENTHOUSE in the biggest city in my STATE, used to live in Playa Del Carmen (Hella nice part of Mexico, I've been there b4), and just generally always has her hair and nails done top of the line

Like this girl is rich as hell but she is also genuinely one of the nicest people ever

She gave me some of her Lululemon clothes because I said I didn't have any, she took me to the movies and to a really nice restaurant and refused to let me pay for myself, and she said that the nicest gift she's ever gotten was a 12$ necklace and shitty little note I gave her for her 21st Birthday that basically just said "lmao don't drink yourself to death love u pookie"
