Math is beautiful.

When I was in college, I had a math class and I invited my math group to my apartment to study and I'd get everyone high and make enchiladas. The reason I invited them over was because I was in love with Rob Schrecongost, a musician who was married to a Haitian stuck in Haiti. I did awesome in college math. I hate teaching it, though.
You could even say that math itself is a language, it assigns symbols and expressions to physical things and abstract ideas. And if you can describe a complicated phenomenon in one short simple equation, it is beautiful indeed.
as in the universal language...:)
Math can get sloppy and messy as well, it all depends on the skills of the mathematician. Though I'd say overall it's so much more precise and compact.
True.
I met my ex-husband in a math class.Math sucks!
Math gets really sloppy (by design) once you get into the real deep quantum mechanics equations, and that is cool.Mathematical proof that the universe operates on the chaos operating system, not windows vista.
Geometry kicks ass, Algebra...not so much
Webster says Geometry is a branch of mathematics. Geometry=math. This equation leads us to the solution:
Geometry sucks.
Gretchen you're operating on a false assumption, hence your solution is not valid.

It is about systematizin..."I wholeheartedly agree with you. Numbers can't express love, compassion, or any other emotion good or bad.Unless the topic is my money, I tune out any conversations that include numbers. I'm immediately bored. I like that words are not concrete. They have many variables. I so hate math!
Ok, this thread has gone all hippie; I'm out.
I just spent 2 days on a jury duty, trying to assign a monetary value to someone's "pain and suffering" that's some math I would be happy to NEVER have to encounter again!
I guess it depends on the case. I had a lame one where some chick was in a fender bender and sued for her chiropractor bills.
Oh, wow, and posts are gone from this thread... It was some girls that started this, right? She must have deleted herself and all her posts. Lame.
"Numbers can't express love, compassion, or any other emotion good or bad"
"If people do not believe that mathematics is simple, it is only because they do not realize how complicated life is."
re: "Numbers can't express love, compassion, or any other emotion good or bad"Well those things are overrated anyways!
And yes, math is quite logical, and when done correctly - simple and elegant. That's not a bad thing at all.

in message 31 your picture is not showing....
Seth is simplifying math. Math literally helps humans understand everything. From how to get off the earth to how old dinosaur bones are.
Um, I didn't get it. The first figure looked like the Chinese "dollar" (yuen) sign.Of course, I'm so horribly stupid. Was it pi? Even so, no comprende.

Ooh. Golly.I've always regretted not studying more math, dammit. I was always into the arts, yet my most fun class by FAR was grade 10 math. Our teacher just enjoyed the subject so much he had us rolling in the aisles trying to figure equations out. He was an inspired man.
ok I had to post over my last post, fr me and donna's friendship. I'
m not sure you would have appreciated it... I have been drinking and thought it was funny, but if one were not drunk I think they mght be offended.
No fuxcking way, I totally re-posted that immediatly after hittng the post button...
faster then thought that, Donna, Is.
I must admit I am very drunk and do not remember what I wrote... so it mustgy not have been very interesting.
Nick gets points for drunk posting! Every Hater's duty.
I think his spelling actually improves when he's drunk posting.
Drunken posting gets two thumbs up from this old man! If he would have deleted his account and then begged to come back he would have completed the full circle of drunken drama!(yes I've done something similar)
