Management Girl (Talking to her friend in Science): You Science people think that you know everything. Just because you’re in Science doesn’t mean that you know more than me.
Science Friend: Alright, why don’t you prove it? What does the C in E = mc2 stand for?

(Sitting in class while the Prof is lecturing about homosexual-targeted marketing with a slideshow on the projector. The lights are dimmed, and in the middle, a student’s cell phone begins to ring to the tune of Abba’s Dancing Queen.
