I'm down one physics student, which leaves me with a lot more ticking time. I hate to admit it, but it's getting pretty hard to tolerate.

I guess... what I'm trying to say is that I could use some company. I'm going to find a decent, Cage-free restaurant and lunch will be on me.

It's ended up that way. I was more a researcher than a professor back home. [There's a lot of story missing there, but why complicate things?]

[skintoskin]

Oh. My physics teacher was boring.

[hulkbusted]

I hear that so often I sometimes wonder how there are any physicists at all.

[skintoskin]

[He shrugs.]

Someone has to explain gravity to the people who keep falling down, I guess.

[hulkbusted]

That's right. I spend every day explaining to people why they don't go spinning off into space.

[skintoskin]

You're shittin' me, right?

[hulkbusted]

Yes, I'm shitting you. I think you might have strange ideas about physics and physicists.

[skintoskin]

I probably have no fuckin' clue what the definition is, so I hope there isn't a test.

[hulkbusted]

Even my students don't really get tests, I'm not going to spring them on strangers.

Bruce Banner, by the way.

[skintoskin]

Oh, good.

Neil McCormick. Hey.
