Sexism, a mathematical possibility

This is where you can discuss your homework, family, just about anything, make strange sounds and otherwise discuss things which are really not related to the Lancer-series. Yes that means you can discuss other games.

Sexism, a mathematical possibility

If we consider the follow statement:
Girls = Time and Money
=> Girls = Time x Money
We know that Time equals Money
=> Girls = (Money)^2
We also know that money is the root of all evil
=> Money = (Evil)^0.5
=> Girls = ((Evil)^0.5)^2
=> Girls = Evil

Q.E.D

N.B. I've put Evil to the power of 0.5 because there is no square root sign that I can get to work on the forums.


I'm not evil, I'm morally challenged

hmmz...a friend of mine claims to have had part in creating that equation...

though I have a slight problem with one of the statements...

"We also know that money is the root of all evil"

I beg to differ here...money is not the root of all evil...the love for money is the root of all evil...

Your friend may well have come up with a similar statement.

You know what they say about great minds...

EDIT: Nutty, I chose that title because it spoofs the title of one of Chips' threads. Even if he did miss out a comma.

Meh, I personally found that old old Chemistry one was much much better



Dr. Schambaugh, of the University of Oklahoma School of Chemical Engineering, Final Exam question for May of 1997. Dr. Schambaugh is known for asking questions such as, "why do airplanes fly?" on his final exams. His one and only final exam question in May 1997 for his Momentum, Heat and Mass Transfer II class was: "Is hell exothermic or endothermic? Support your answer with proof."

Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle's Law or some variant. One student, however, wrote the following:

"First, We postulate that if souls exist, then they must have some mass. If they do, then a mole of souls can also have a mass. So, at what rate are souls moving into hell and at what rate are souls leaving? I think we can safely assume that once a soul gets to hell, it will not leave.

Therefore, no souls are leaving. As for souls entering hell, let's look at the different religions that exist in the world today. Some of these religions state that if you are not a member of their religion, then you will go to hell. Since there are more than one of these religions and people do not belong to more than one religion, we can project that all people and souls go to hell. With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls in hell to increase exponentially.

Now, we look at the rate of change in volume in hell. Boyle's Law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in hell to stay the same, the ratio of the mass of souls and volume needs to stay constant. Two options exist:
If hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls enter hell, then the temperature and pressure in hell will increase until all hell breaks loose.
If hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until hell freezes over.

So which is it? If we accept the quote given to me by Theresa Manyan during Freshman year, "that it will be a cold night in hell before I sleep with you" and take into account the fact that I still have NOT succeeded in having sexual relations with her, then Option 2 cannot be true...Thus, hell is exothermic."

The statement regarding girls and evil has, I believe, been around since the invention of analytic geometry. You're by no means the first to come up with this, but its clever, nonetheless.

lol, i love that old chemistry one, it rules!

might have to keep that one...

Or the alternative -

Girls = Future and love
=> Girls = Time x nurturing
We know that Time equals investment
=> Girls = (love)^2
We also know that love covers a multitude of sins
=> love = (good)^0.5
=> Girls = (good)^0.5)^2
=> Girls = a future and good life

I've seen the first one many times...still funny though.

As for:

"Girls = Future and love
=> Girls = Time x nurturing
We know that Time equals investment
=> Girls = (love)^2
We also know that love covers a multitude of sins
=> love = (good)^0.5
=> Girls = (good)^0.5)^2
=> Girls = a future and good life"

How does future and love = time x nurturing?

How does investment = (love)^2?

That whole equasion is confusing...i agree with the end result...but math is off...

Life: No one gets out alive.

"Girls = Future and love (girls are apart of both a future and love)
=> Girls = Time x nurturing (Relationships take time to happen and nuturing to develope)
We know that Time equals investment
=> Girls = (love)^2 (You provide twice the love to girls that you do other things)
We also know that love covers a multitude of sins
=> love = (good)^0.5 (Love is always a good thing, but some hold back on it)
=> Girls = (good)^0.5)^2 Girls, are an intrical part of the future and what they mean to you)
=> Girls = a future and good life" (Therefore, girls are apart of our future and together, you have agood life)
