Imagine you proposed to your girlfriend at your favourite band's show, and then it turns out they're playing another show in your country and your very town on your wedding day. Ask them to play at your wedding, and they say why not.

Lol, smooth jazz sax in a Dream Theater song. Ultimate cheesiness.
But it works in Another Day, as far as I'm concerned.
Is it cheesy if a jazz band that does some covers of prog artists has an album titled Prog?
Yes, but I don't like The Bad Plus or Another Day, although I will give The Bad Plus a break and say that Another Day is infinitely worse than anything The Bad Plus have done or could ever do.

Okay, so I'm on the track for a mechanical engineering degree, but lately I've been much more considering going into a non-engineering physics degree. I really love all the stuff you do for engineering and I find it totally fascinating, but I really want to study theoretical physics.
Is that weird that I'm interested in super existential, mind-numbing f*ckscience?
Well you just started, I'm not sure you need to worry about that. And unless you're Stephen Hawking, how do you monetize theoretical physics?
How did you get f**ked on a Calculus I quiz already? Isn't it just limits at this point?

No, it was a recap of rationalizing functions, but it was stuff I never really learned all the way through the first time (even vs. odd functions, etc.)
You don't. I have a morbid fascination with weird sh*t like alternate dimensions, string theory, parallel universes, and subatomic structures.

It depends on how good you are at physics and math. If the answer is anything less than "Genius!" then you're probably better off staying with engineering. I thought the same thing...got started off in engineering, then "Hey, theoretical physics sounds a lot cooler than this...so does astrophysics! Let's switch my major so I can go give them a try, I'm pretty decent at physics."
Pretty decent doesn't cut it, at all. I was fine up until I had to start taking the 400-level classes. Those destroyed me.
