What do you "assign" to the Shire? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I assign when a great idea hits you dead on, and it works great with everything you have already written.

It sounds crazy, but I'll assign it anyway.

Nomenclature of organic compounds.

Yes, I know having to memorise the priority of naming them (salts > carboxylic acids > acid anhydrides > esters > acyl chlorides > amides > nitriles > aldehydes > ketones > alcohols > phenols > amines > double bonds > triple bonds > single bonds > ethers > alkyl halides, or I could be wrong somewhere) isn't worth it in the long run, but I'm amazed that the IUPAC came up with it at all. Besides, it's fun to name those weird lines with scattered letters.

Honey and Milk. If the gods have a nectar, this is it.

Alpenkäse! For now it shall be in the Shire, but when getting more weight won't be a good thing...

I assign PMs. They're such a good way of getting to know people.

I assign managing to get all your work done and handed in on and even before time, so that the last two and half days of terms are enjoyable!
