Studying Computer Science be like

Linear algebra Pros: all operations are linear, meaning only simple addition and multiplication, no weird shit involving exponents or whatever, and it's easy to see how the subject is useful since both matrices and vectors are used for so much stuff even in basic programming Cons: though the operations themselves are usually simple, there are so many weird unintuitive rules about WHAT counts as a vector space that you can spend half the semester not even understanding the basic properties that you will need for everything

Calculus Pros: none Cons: WELCOME TO HELL WELCOME TO HELL WELCOME TO HELL WELCOME TO HELL WELCOME TO HELL W

The Offspring - Gone Away 1997

"Gone Away" is a song by American rockband the Offspring. Written by the band's singer, Dexter Holland, it was released as the second single from the band's fourth studio album, Ixnay on the Hombre (1997). "Gone Away" was the most successful single off of Ixnay on the Hombre, making it to #1 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Tracks and #4 on the Modern Rock Tracks.

This song has helped many Offspring fans cope with loss. Holland told Kerrang!: "I get some letters from people saying how much 'Gone Away' - which is about losing someone - means to them, from parents who have written to me to say that it helped them get over the loss of their son who died from leukemia. It rips your heart out."

Holland started doing this song during the Offspring's gigs solo on the piano. "A rock show can feel like bam bam bam, and we wanted to take a minute in the middle of the set to let everyone breathe. Sit down for a minute, stop screaming." Holland noticed his acoustic rendition was connecting live. As he was also getting numerous supportive messages on social media, he decided to record a piano and strings version for their 2021 album Let The Bad Times Roll. "It makes it feel different in a way I think is cool. It was weird recording it; I'm so used to weird, loud, messy guitars that cover up all your imperfections, and it felt pretty vulnerable, quite frankly."

"Gone Away" received a total of 76,3% yes votes!

I knew it the second I read the title which reminded me of 1984. Is this true?? *dies*

O_O alrighty, then:

Limb by limb and tooth by tooth

In the next World War

La Tierra gira, hoy, menos veloz

You call me up and treat me like a dog

Your body is so sweet now, baby.

What the hell.
