I got a little geeky today in class.  First, I asked if we would all say something (I forget what).  When the class was quiet, I said “So say we all?”  They relied in unison “so say we all.”  I then chuckled and offered bonus points for identifying the reference to “so say we all.”

No points were awarded.

Second, I talked about Aristotle’s idea of function.  For my example, I asked “What makes a good Batmobile?”  I used the following as a poor Batmoblie:

batmobile

If the purpose of the Batmobile is to get the Bat Man around town, and the Bat Man just needs to go down to the corner to grab some smokes, then perhaps the above is a good Batmobile.  However, if he needs to catch the Joker, perhaps not.

That lead me to my next slide, where I included some of my favorite panels from Batman and the Monster Men:

the purpose of the bat-mobile

I just couldn’t resist that fin comment.
