This is not a joke. My CS1331 Recitation is gonna be taught by Tong and some other dude.

How am I supposed to take CS seriously now? Every time in recitation everyone will think i'm ******** as I say things like "OMG MY PROGRAM GOT KOMBLAMMANATED" and "wat?"

Auto fail for me =(

I'm not hating on Tommy. Tommy's got a great physique, but he doesn't really workout. He's lean. Ya'll make him sound like a dominican dump truck.

interesting.... like wtf how the heck can the school let that through O_o.

course catalog description:

"This course will teach students the basic, intermediate and advanced combat techniques in the video game Super Smash Brothers Melee for the Nintendo Gamecube. This course will also provide in depth lectures and discussions involving many controversial issues concerning video games in our society today such as censorship, stereotyped characters, addiction, and gaming as an evolving art form. Gamecubes, televisions and controllers will be provided by the instructors. Gamers and non-gamers are welcome and encouraged to take this course. Classes will meet for two and a half hours each week-one and a half hours during regularly scheduled discussion and class time, and one hour outside regular class time as a practicum to practice and refine skills."

edit: So if they don't place top 3 in a tournament they fail??? lol

Easy, just make up some BS thing that relates it to current events.

Like that.

Also dumb kids/parents will waste money on dumb classes.

And who is Peter Zhang the instructor? Is he any good? I wonder if someone has ever taken this class. I would love it if some guy showed up just because he needed an elective and owned the teacher. Also, I always figured mew2king would be the first person to teach a class about melee lol, but then he'd always be out of class at tournaments, so there ya go.

Computer Science?
Well. Tong knows like three different languages I think.
But anyways, CS is fun. c++ and assembly are awesome. <3
Programs don't usually KOMBLAMINATE unless your leaking memory from something.
