What Made you Smile/What Ticked you off Today?

[Luke]

I endorse any efforts to guide that anger into frenetic angry sex.

It's pretty amazing isn't it? All I had to do was pop a boner and say our safe word a few times.

In all honesty, sitcoms are right; a pissed off woman makes for something magical. I might have to wear a turtleneck tomorrow from the abuse I gladly took.

Youth is wasted on The Young.

Retirement is wasted on the old, I say.

Smile: Made a new friend today. He's a buddy of a buddy of mine, and we ended up playing Double Dribble, best out of three. He's a pretty smart duder, but man, he smokes a lot of pot. The guy has a $400 3-footer, and labeled jars of the stuff.

He was very cool about not smoking around me, which was great as after I left his house I got stopped at the second DUI checkpoint in a few weeks.

The guy has manners. When he asked "Want some chocolate Thai? It's crazy" I responded with "Nah man, but you go nuts if you want" he apologized and said "Oh man, I'm so sorry. I'll smoke it in my bedroom", which he did.

I let friends smoke in my gameroom, especially during poker games, but I don't want to smell of pot, so it was nice of this guy to be...well, be a nice guy. Nothing against stoners, it's just not my bag (ho-ho). And had I token the Choc-o-late. I bet my ass would be in jail right now.

But yeah. Nice guy who loves games, gambits, and gambling. Looking forward to inviting him to my next poker game.

I don't expect anyone to remember what they did in high school or to be interested in math as a hobby.

I kind of do. It's fascinating stuff that has yet to be perfected.

2+2 doesn't always equal 4, but 2.0000000 + 2.0000000 does.

I'm not a "hard sciences" guy, but I'm pretty sure that 2 is 2.00000000

An "even" number is a concept to teach math. A penny is said to be .75 of an inch, which isn't always true. Two pennies may add up to two cents, but not 1.5 inches (see what I did?).

And to boot Pi is exactly calculated as this!


When .005% makes a difference, the number 2 means nothing.

but 2 still means 2.0000000

At an elementary level, yes. And cows say moo, and dogs say ruff. And there is no channel 6.25444 on your tv. And earning reports end in flat dollars. Fine.

But mathematicians would argue that deviations prevent the occurrence, but not the nonexistence, of even numbers. "Four leaf clover? Pfft. That's a 3.2143 leaf clover" for example.

I don't think you know many mathematicians. I think most of them would see the number "2" written down and say "yes, that's the same as 2.0000000"

I think you two are arguing around each other, but...

I am going to side with DSH here. He is 100.0000000% correct.

Oh you.

Smile: Nighty night.

Ok people, WTF is everyone doing in here this evening. Stop the panic attacks, stop letting people smoke near you or your shit if you're not a smoker and stop arguing about rational numbers.

Beegus has everyone in here gone crazy?
