Title: FUNTIME ACTIVITY: RUINING STUDENTS FOREVER

Text:

1. The first thing a physics student must learn is vectors and scalars. The difference between vectors and scalars is that scalars don’t exist.

2. Student: What about “amount of apples”?

3. Teacher: Huh? Oh, you’re referring to “distance in apple-space.”
