Quantum physics, string theory, stuff like lasers and ball bearings–these are just a few things that I like to pretend I understand. Usually I just invoke the names of Stephen Hawking or Dr. Emmett Brown. If my audience is really smart I’ll make a reference to “e”, the loneliest of all the irrational numbers. I had to read a lot of books to pretend to know so much, only to find out from Rooster that I was wasting my time. If you really want to confuse someone, try this line.

Dude! I’m impressed that you’re acquainted with “e”. I’ve never heard it described your way, but it’s an apt description.
HM, I listened good in Calc II. Ok, I didn’t actually go to Calc II very often, but I read the book. 😛
