Math is the one subject people are proud to suck at, and I never got it. If I said, "Oh, haha, Shakespeare, he's that one dead british guy with the plays and shit, right?" people would call me an idiot and say, "Learn basic literature." If I said, "Wait, the EARTH revolves around the SUN? I can clearly see it's the other way around every day!" you'd say I was an idiot and I should go learn basic science. If I said, "Everybody always talks about Hitler, but nobody knows his first name, was it Heil?" you'd say, "Go learn basic history, dumbass."

But if somebody says, "I have trouble with basic problems like 'I'm driving from San Francisco to Los Angeles (350 miles) and I'm going 60 miles an hour, how many hours does it take," everybody says, "LOL I KNOW RIGHT MATH IS TEH SUXOR!!!!1!!"

I hate it. And god forbid I should tell people what I do. Every single time. "I teach math." "I WAS ALWAYS SO BAD AT MATH!" And I'm forced to laugh and say, "Yeah, well..." but in my head I'm thinking, "Well then you clearly didn't care to try, asshole."

That's not always true...I'm bad at math, and its not for a lack of trying. If someone was actually able to teach me and get me to understand so I could advance I'd be one hell of a happy camper

[–]DamnThatNamesTaken 1 point2 points ago

If it makes you feel any better, I love math as it's the only thing I'm good at.

[–]EarendilStar 0 points1 point ago

I'd say I suck at math. However when I say that, I say that as a comp sci major that barely passed college calc 2 and graph theory. I did just enough to get my degree so I could go on to do HMI/UI work in my field, and never touch matrix multiplication again. But everyone should know algebra.

In other words, AMEN Brother!

[–]Wethequeens13 0 points1 point ago

I agree for the most part but that's not always the case. I'm bad at math and do very poorly because I'm dyslexic. I see some numbers as letters and some all mixed up. I get crazy answers and my teachers think I'm an idiot. I try really hard though.

cunt

[–]canadianman001 -1 points0 points ago

The only thing I cared not to study were those damned graphing calculators. A waste of my time. As an electronics engineer I have never had to use one. Or could never see myself using one.

[–]tealoctober 5 points6 points ago

this shit was only funny in middle school.

[–]guitarguy109 2 points3 points ago

This has never been funny

[–]Wutzberger 0 points1 point ago

Haha yeah sucking at math rules! You cool bro, you cool.

[–]MyPetReptar -2 points-1 points ago

Perfectly logical argument believe it or not. Its false, but its logical.

[–]Thinks_Too_Logically 0 points1 point ago

No, it is not logical. It is someone's view on math, that is the absence of logic as it is subjective and prone to hyperbole.

Finally, someone who actually studies Mathematical Anti Telharsic Harfatum Septomin.

Always divide by zero and you'll be fine.

If you're driving down the street and all the wheels fall of of your canoe, how many pancakes does it take to build a doghouse? None, because ice-cream has no bones.

[–]quitenuggly -3 points-2 points ago

dude this makes me laugh every time i read it.

[–]Hubbsy -4 points-3 points ago

I call this MathLibs

[–]Gimli_son_ofGloin -4 points-3 points ago

If you're rowing your boat to the ocean and the wheels fall off does it take just as many pancakes to shingle a doghouse?

[–]Maniac523 -2 points-1 points ago

No, it will take potato sugar-free giraffes to internet the statue, if and only if the derivative of Tuesday equals orange juice.
