That if you were smart in high school--so what? (really?)
That I would go to a party the night before a final.

That free food served until 10:00 is gone by 9:50.
That Sunday is a figment of the world's imagination.
That when someone wants to 'borrow' something, they mean that they want to keep it forever.

And Physics is really Math
