I hate people who ask what your major is whenever your at a party or any other social setting

What a terrible way to break the ice

Way till you get to be 25, then it's what do you do for a living. I pick a theme for the night and tell everyone I'm a garbage man or just got a promotion to fry cook for McDonalds.

3/3/2008 4:14:11 PM

When you're really drunk and trying to figure out where you know someone at the party from, it's acceptable

3/3/2008 4:15:10 PM

^^the may be the best idea i've heard of.


ever.

^do people reply with, "Do you sleep with a lot of the waitresses?"

3/3/2008 5:16:24 PM

yeah...its usually something along the lines of

them 'what's your major?'

me 'Chemical Engineering'

them ' wow, i'm in business'

or something like that

If i really feel like throwing them through a loop I'll tell them I'm in Chemical Engineering with a concentration in Nanoscience and a minor in Materials Science Engineering

3/3/2008 5:17:05 PM

^^ No, usually just an "Oh wow" look and then they change the subject like I'm a leper.

Thats when I say really loudly "I get all the wings that I can eat!"

3/3/2008 5:18:19 PM

There was this kid in my suite who everytime someone asked "whats your major?"

he would yell back "Malfunction!" and he would lol and everyone else would

that kid sucked

3/3/2008 5:18:57 PM

there's no need for an apostrophe there.

3/3/2008 5:20:02 PM

my major literally does suck

3/3/2008 5:22:06 PM

well then I guess you making a winning combination with it.

3/3/2008 5:22:36 PM

3/3/2008 5:23:11 PM

No, mine is the best. I get to play with Heifers most afternoons.

3/3/2008 5:32:22 PM

Materials Science sucks. "blah blah blah bonds bonds bonds blah blah blah".
English sucks too.

Best Major ever? Mine.

3/3/2008 5:47:58 PM

I wish I would have had the discipline to stick with Stats or go into Food Science or something. I'm stuck with Marketing and Film, blah.

3/3/2008 6:00:06 PM

i tell them im a bio major and they always ask if i am a scientist.

3/3/2008 6:01:28 PM

You don't have any friends do you?

They really flip their shit if you mention you're also an English major.

it's especially awkward for me when I get this question

3/4/2008 1:53:51 PM

"Hey, what's your major?"
"Textile [they don't listen to the rest]"
"So you're going to china?"

*carl face*

3/4/2008 1:56:10 PM

Aerospace engineering ftw

Planes, spaceships, jet engines, wind tunnels, you get to play with all that crazy shit.

3/4/2008 2:13:48 PM

Graphic Communications is the best.

It's in Technology Education, so we basically take shop classes and make stuff.

3/4/2008 3:56:01 PM

I always ask that question. Cept I have a pre-thought out set of jokes for each and every major.

Not really, but that would be the shit if I could actually do it.

3/4/2008 4:02:58 PM

"i'm a graduate student."

"oh really, studying what?"

"animal science with a co-major in physiology."

"uh... doing what?"

"i work on the specific effects of different maturation supplementations on subsequent embryo development."

"..oh."

"yeah."

3/4/2008 4:07:14 PM

Its just such a gay way to open a conversation

Obviously they dont give a fuck what you're studying...what fake it?

Even worse....when people ask whats your sign.


"Scorpio...no fucking way, me too omg"

3/4/2008 4:09:46 PM

yeah, there's nothing quite like empty, idle chit chat.

"Industrial Engineering"

hey that was my major

except i did a statistics minor too

speaking of which--I need to take senior design. Let me know when you're taking it and I'll freak you out by taking it then too

3/4/2008 4:21:30 PM

3/4/2008 4:24:32 PM

Them: What's your major?
Me: Mathematics.
Them: Oh. Um. What are you going to do with that, teach?
Me:


I get more annoyed when everyone assume all you can do with Math is teach. I don't really think talking to someone about their major is wrong. Idle chit chat is better than awkward silence.

Tell them you are really into young kids and yes you teach so you can meet people. Inform them that 16 is the age of consent in NC.

There is so many ways you can go from there.

3/4/2008 4:45:45 PM

I was Gino Girbralter, importer of rare antiquities, for years... but got tired of it, now I am Lionel Beaverhook, author and owner of a used jetliner refurbishing company

3/4/2008 5:22:55 PM

I'm a CE and always come across some ME that says something like "Civil Engineers build targets, Mechanical engineers build weapons." Which may hold true for like a small percentage of both CEs and MEs. The majority of the time it's the CEs who build buildings and the MEs design the HVAC systems for them or they design the tools needed to build the buildings or they like cars.
