TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted December 18, 2015 Posted December 18, 2015 Gravity Falls fans, the following spoiler contains spoilers for "Weirdmageddon Part 2." Consider yourselves warned. After Dipper, Wendy, and Soos help Mabel escape from Bill's prison bubble, they take refuge in the Mystery Shack. As it turns out, they aren't the only ones; Stan has marshaled the forces, convincing many unlikely parties to ally in hopes of saving Gravity Falls. Those at the Shack include: Pacifica Candy Grenda The Multi-Bear Gnomes and…. Yep, you saw right. Stan has convinced Celestabelleabethabelle, last of her kind, to join the fight for Gravity Falls. Now, I know what you're thinking. "Why is she even there? What can she possibly do against a triangle demon of pure chaos?" The answer is as simple as it is obvious: Remember what she did in "The Last Mabelcorn," when she annoyed Mabel, Candy, Grenda, and Wendy to the point of no return? Viewers were meant to hate her. But imagine if her powers were used for good, against a villain worthy of her ire. BILL: I'm not gonna say it again, you pointy-headed freak! Hand over Pine Tree, or there won't BE a kind for you to be the last of! CELESTABELLEABETHABELLE: Oh, no no no, Bill. I can't do that! I cannot obey you, for you are not pure of heart! BILL: I KNOW!!!! HAND OVER PINE TREE OR— CELESTABELLEABETHABELLE: NOT PURE OF HEART! BILL, flaming in rage, gives a long scream of frustration and begins to beat his head against the wall. Do not underestimate the power of an irritating unicorn, Bill. 2

I was going to dismiss this, but it was her hair they used to block Bill out to begin with...maybe she's the reason Bill is still confined to Gravity Falls?

It seems to be the reason why Bill hasn't been able to touch anyone in the Shack.

Kestrel she/her Posted December 18, 2015 Posted December 18, 2015 I started on a variety of projects, cause I wasn't sure who my partner was.Hold off until I send out assignments on Sunday c:
Chaos he/him Posted December 18, 2015 Posted December 18, 2015 True. At least in precal they work for the most part. And if they don't its my problem. Physics tho.. the teacher ADMITTED to having some things wrong on the review packet but refused to tell us what. :/ thanks, sir. That helps. He doesn't care that most of the people are failing and he blames it on us not going to tutoring. My science teacher was like this. One year, after the marks had arrived back on the teachers desk, she was furious at us. Never mind that it was a consistent trend that everyone did badly, it clearly wasn't because they were teaching the subject poorly, or because they made the test too difficult. No, it's just that all 150 of us in the year were horrible at learning, and we were all juvenile delinquents. For reference, 6 people got an A in the year, and 86 people got a C. I've had better teachers. Still, not doing science next year. I'm safe. This is depressing to read. If there's an error in anything, I make sure that stuff is up-to-date, and generally post a news item telling them of an error, where it is, and the new version of the document. As an instructor, it's generally pretty easy to tell if an exam is too hard or easy, at least for me. I look and see if the average was like in the 70s. That's generally a good exam. If the average is in the 80s, it might be too easy. If the average is in the 60s... I consider cutting a problem. At least in the exams I've written that hasn't happened. At my university exams go through a lot of drafts. I think that is because we have a lot of instructors for the same course, so there's more exam drafting. Other classes, though, there might just be the Physics 201 teacher, and that's the person. They write the exam, and there's no one to really look it over. And Young Bard, I totally agree, that teacher sounds awful. I think a good solution is to make sure, as a professor, that your expectations are reasonably clear. If you set out clear expectations on what difficulty of problems you expect students to do, they will rise up to the occasion, and generally be really thankful you were clear rather than mysterious. Your examples of teachers do sound particularly bad. Though, as I'm sure you know, there are definitely students who don't do the work and then always complain about there not being enough help. (This is a consistent thing on evaluations, despite at my University there being more resources than ever before.) 2
ThirdGen Posted December 18, 2015 Posted December 18, 2015 Oh. That changed back on its own. [Gir voice] It was meeee! I was the Ookla all along!
Kestrel she/her Posted December 18, 2015 Posted December 18, 2015 Its even more annoying that most of the people I talked to failed the precal exam. That says so much about the program. I had an 88, and made a 58 on the exam and it brought my grade down ten points. I'm just waiting for my parents to see it. Sighs. But all across the board people failed it. And in AP Physics (for the time I was in it), the curves were huge. Like, 40 points because without it everyone would have failed. That also irritates the crap out of me. Because if you need to have a huge curve like that, its not the students, its the teachers. Yep, as you said there will always be the complainers (ie: the kids in my english this year and last year complaining about how its too hard and too much work. English last year was so easy to me, and yeah, it was a lot of work but you shouldn't be making a 60 if you did said work. And this year they were like "three essays due on the same day!!" but you have three weeks to do it "that's so hard!!" I mean just quit then honestly) but when everyone, including those of us who do our work, make bad grades then its kinda an issue with the department itself and not the subject matter. 2
Edgedancer he/him Posted December 18, 2015 Posted December 18, 2015 Alright, random question. From the top of your head, give me a pitch for what kind of job a supernatural mercanry might be needed. Also, here's something for when you feel like someone's overreacting. 3
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted December 18, 2015 Posted December 18, 2015 Alright, random question. From the top of your head, give me a pitch for what kind of job a supernatural mercanry might be needed. Also, here's something for when you feel like someone's overreacting. Bounty hunting on supernatural creatures (vampires, werewolves, sparkly men, etc.). Working as a bodyguard for someone who believes they're being stalked by a supernatural creature. Or, working as a bodyguard for someone whose house is haunted, keeping them safe while the ghost hunters do their job. Getting an Emo girl with no facial expressions to dump her sparkly boyfriend. 3
Kestrel she/her Posted December 18, 2015 Posted December 18, 2015 I passed physics for the semester. Good riddance. 4

Funny, I did not plan for this to play in a world where Forks exsists. I don't think she'd take the job last job unless with "dump" you mean "dump his dead body in the backyard." I passed physics for the semester. Good riddance. Good job. 1
Kobold King he/him Posted December 18, 2015 Posted December 18, 2015 I don't think she'd take the job last job unless with "dump" you mean "dump his dead body in the backyard." Well that's just the problem. She's dumped his dead body in the backyard eight different times, but he always comes back, acting like nothing at all happened. 1
