Your cutie mark

[Artina89]

Ah, that sucks, a Ph.D friend of mine is in a similar situation due to funding troubles. But yeah, I love transition metal chemistry, I have always loved biological inorganic chemistry. You have no option but to like it when you are taught by the infamous Professor Martyn Poliakoff At least you have a guy willing to cheer everyone up. In my group I had a chinese guy that didn't speak much, a guy with OCD who was always in a bad mood, one girl who never showed up (and subsequently didn't graduate) and a girl who was a pole dancer in her spare time.

As for the last thing, anytime! *bows*

Yeah... sucks, but we're improvising quite well, I think.

Anyway, yeesh, that's a rather... awkward research group. Uh, my chemistry lab consists of a camp French guy, a gorilla (the name guy), a perpetually drunk genius, a guy who grows a full beard in a day and bollocks people with a grin, a bolshy (in a good way) Turk, a genial but short tempered gardener and a gun-crazed former industrial chemist. Yes, we get quite a fair few interesting conversations throughout the day.

And... wow, you've gotten lectures from Prof Green Chemistry! *jealous*

During my UG days, I quite enjoyed green/environmental chemistry/green solvents. *sigh* A long time ago now...

Heh. Prof. Poliakoff wasn't just a lecturer of mine, he was also one of my personal tutor. It made for some awesome tutorials, the nicest guy you could ever hope to meet. Had a strange habit of trying to get his tutee's to watch his brothers films, made for some very odd emails.

Your research group actually sounds like a cool group of people actually, it seems easy to know why you would have interesting conversations . As for the whole money thing, I hope it get's better soon, it's good that you are handling it well

A metroid with a pink ribbon, I'll suck the life out of ya while bein all cute!

 

[TheDarkestDerp]

Always seemed so odd to me... whenever teen chicks got tattoos on their asses we've always called them "tramp stamps", "ass antlers" or "the runway" ... "game station" ... attention marks, really, call it what it is. Never a "cutie mark", that's an interesting euphemism. I suppose it's fairly clever for that.

I have tattoos, I have several, but I can't say I'd ever refer to art on my arse as a "cutie mark".

 

[Jeanette Diaz]

Coffee beans! Not just because I love the stuff but because I'm a really energetic person.

 

[zerobudgetgamer]

Hrm...probably my avatar. If you can't see it well, it's a pair of dragons coiling together into the shape of a star. I am a serious dragon addict, rivaled only by my gaming addiction, but since I can't use that, there ya go.

 

[RaDeuX]

Mine would be the angry mark, because I'm pissed off most of the time.

 

[Disturbed-Hell]

Probrably somthing like the T'au insignia because I have a passion for videogames and a fondness for the T'au in particular.

For the Greater Good!

 

[Acting like a FOOL]

a pen and graph. I write and do economics.

To have a tutorial with the guy (even though his specialty is nothing to do with what I do... =P).

Anyway, that's just the chemistry lab group, the ecology lab group is another eclectic mix with one common factor: good food! Every one of them is a mean baker/chef, lunch times never get boring, I tell you. Cheese, cake and fruit make some sort of appearance every day, quite cool actually.

And hopefully the whole funding farce should be cleared up soon enough. My supervisor is taking it in good humour so everyone's relaxed a little over this week.

Mine would be the glyph

Cos I love Parkour, and I am a self trained parkour practitioner.

You get free food?! Wow I am jealous. I never got free food grumble, grumble...

As for the whole funding farce, your supervisor has probably had to deal with this kinda thing before, so try and take advantage of the situation, have a couple of days off!!!

Anyhoo, I'm going to bed, I think we have sorta derailed the thread enough XD it was great talking to you, we should do this again sometime

 

[Pharsalus]

Not just any 'free food', good European (Swiss/Italian/French usually) food! =P (OK, I'll stop being a jerk now.)

And have a couple days off? Oh, no no, even though we can't order anything, we've got a lot of stock chemicals and solvents to keep me busy for... a long time, shall we say. Still, it'd be good to have a break. And in so saying, I need to get some sleep too...

And yeah... I was thinking... is a Brony thread the best place to be ranting/reminiscing/discussing chemistry?! Totally worth it tho.

G'night!

 

[copperflyingace]

Crossed pen and sword with a crimson shield in front of a "Knight" chess piece emblazoned on a crimson shield. Too much?

 

[Triple G]

The soviet national emblem.

[IMG=http://www.theempire.ru/UsSrOO4.jpg]

The hammer and sickle stand for new power and peaceful labor.
The wheat stands for prosperity.
The sun stands for light of the ideas of the great October and a bright future.
The red star stands for the fight against capitalism on all five continents and the golden rim stands for the glow of the revolutions fire.

 

[SilentCom]

An invisible mark, just add lemon juice and heat it and you'll find out...

 

[Klarinette]

Probably a treble clef or something like that. I LIEK TEH MUZICS. I also play several instruments, blah blah blah. So yeah, treble clef.

 

[Restoshamankk]

The symbol of anarchy, self explanatory

 

[Janktrio]

My cutie mark would probably be a pair of theatre masks on top of a heart. The masks represent my love of acting and my rather outgoing personailty since I tend to joke around and be melodramatic for fun. The heart represents my kind nature since I tend to be a nice guy and I actively try not to be a jerk to people.

 

[Qtoy]

well somebody ambitious, you should make your cutie mark a hooker and next to her your wife, sorry but i couldn't resist. Off topic but i live next to D.C. and you would be surprise how many hookers their are in the city and how corrupt the police are.

Yeah, I went to D.C. once on a mission trip to minister to the homeless, and while I didn't actively see corruption in the police, I did see the prostitutes and homeless.
