GIRL 1: It's gonna feel weird walking into math later.
We're always so early.
GIRL 2: It's college, Tiffany. Time to get crazy
GUY 1: I got some new Toms shoes yesterday.
GUY 1: Toms? Toms is the belly lint of America flicked to the third world.
GIRL: I'm watching *Ratatouille* while eating ratatouille!
GUY: Yeah? I'm watching 101 Dalmatians while eating
101 dalmatians.
GIRL 1: Did you see Stephanie at the costume party? I think she was a dinosaur.
GIRL 2: Knowing Stephanie, she was probably a bitchasaurus rex.
GIRL: Which periodic element is the most chill?
GUY: I'm not sure?
GIRL: BRO-mine!
**GUEY:** I need some 5 Hour Energy. I've got that a 230 feeling.
**GIRL:** Hey 5 Hour Energy, it's not a 230 feeling. More like as-soon-as a-wake-up til-when I-go-to-bed feeling.
GUY 1: Dude, what should I be for Halloween?
GUY 2: Well, you're already wearing a Brett Favre jersey. All you have to do is inappropriately expose yourself at every party we go to

GUY: Yeah, even more so when you kill it.
**GUY 1:** Hey dude, will you sell me Adderall?
**GUY 2:** What? Just because I'm at Anschutz at 3 a.m. I must be selling Adderall?

WHAT IT'S LIKE // TO LAUNCH INTO OUTER SPACE
Space jam: Blasting into the atmosphere, Steve Hawley felt uncomfortable beneath the massive amounts of gravitational pressure on his body.
Between 1986 and 1999, Steve Hawley spent 770 hours and 27 minutes in space. He's one of about 500 people to leave Earth's atmosphere, and now teaches astronomy and physics at KU.
Launch is strange. That's why we train so much on the ground. If something happens, your instincts need to lead you in the right direction until your brain catches up. The things you hear and feel are different than anything on Earth could simulate.
We used to wear what a jet pilot would wear, and after the Challenger shuttle disaster we wore these big, bulky, uncomfortable space

suits with survival equipment; two emergency oxygen tanks and a parachute attached. You're also wearing a helmet over a black and white communications cap, called Snoopy caps, so you hear the ground team talking and your crewmates on board.
While the shuttle remains on the launch pad you're lying on your back. Out the windows, all you see is sky. As flight engineer, I sat between the commander and pilot. The metal chair you're on isn't well padded or comfortable.
The first 30 seconds are loud. You go from one G of gravitational pressure—what you feel on earth—to three. And though you're strapped down, you feel every effect. As the pressure builds, the oxygen bottles on your body tighten up against it. Launch is uncomfortable.
The shuttle has two rocket motors and three liquid engines. The rocket motors jettison at a certain altitude. Then the acceleration falls off and you go from three Gs back to one. The sensation is so dramatic for a moment that I thought all the engines had quit. I looked at the instrument panel to be sure they were still running. Luckily, they were.
