Heck of a question (Non LR)

[Funrover]

The following is an actual question given on a University of Washington
chemistry mid-term. The answer by one student was so "profound" that the
professor shared it with colleagues, via the Internet, which is, of
course, why we now have the pleasure of enjoying it as well.

Bonus Question: Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic
(absorbs heat)? Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using
Boyle's Law (gas cools when it expands and heats when it is compressed)
or some variant. One student, however, wrote the following: First,
we need to know how the mass of Hell is changing in time. So we need to
know the rate at which souls are moving into Hell and the rate at which
they are leaving. I think that we can safely assume that once a soul
gets to Hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving. As
for how many souls are entering Hell, let's look at the different
religions that exist in the world today. Most of these religions state
that if you are not a member of their religion, you will go to Hell.
Since there is more than one of these religions and since people do not
belong to more than one religion, we can project that all souls go to
Hell. With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number
of souls in Hell to increase exponentially. Now, we look at the rate of
change of the volume in Hell because Boyle's Law states that in order
for the temperature and pressure in Hell to stay the same, the volume of
Hell has to expand proportionately as souls are added. This gives two
possibilities: 1. If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at
which souls enter Hell, then the temperature and pressure in Hell will
increase until all Hell breaks loose; 2. If Hell is expanding at a rate
faster than the increase of souls in Hell, then the temperature and
pressure will drop until Hell freezes over. So which is it? If we
accept the postulate given to me by Teresa during my Freshman year that,
"it will be a cold day in Hell before I sleep with you," and take into
account the fact that I slept with her last night, then number 2 must be
true, and thus I am sure that Hell is exothermic and has already frozen
over. The corollary of this theory is that since Hell has frozen over,
it follows that it is not accepting any more souls and is therefore,
extinct...leaving only Heaven thereby proving the existence of a divine
being which explains why, last night, Teresa kept shouting "Oh my God."

I love it. I can sleep well tonight knowing that I'll now be going to heaven.

That has to be one of the best theories. Bravo

LMAO..that was great!

Bloody Hell!!!!!! That was a good one!!!!!!!

She must've been one hell of a lay...

Hell's bells, that was one helluva an answer. the kid was quite the hell-raiser to draft that kind of answer for what i presume to have been a hellacious chemistry exam. hell, that broad he slept with must have been a real hell-cat; otherwise, why the hell would he be humping her on the night before a big test. if she gets wind of his answer, he'll undoubtedly catch hellfire.

That is GREAT!!!!!

Let's see....sex with a hot babe or study for my chemistry test....hmmmm... what to do...

[Funrover]

I think any subject would be easier understood with that kind od studying!!!!!LOL
