RE: State mathematics standards WTF
Can you please point out which one is?
I tend to think "Parents". I learned more about stopping to look at the problem from my parents than I ever learned in school. Being naturally curious helps, but look what I'm doing now ... (ducks from Morb's flames)
Also, you still get the math wrong, but I think this is an elegant attempt at trolling, so I'm not responding to the remaining gibberish where it's obvious that the geometry of the problem AS DEFINED does not support your arguments. If there were merely ONE additional 90 degree marker on a single intersection not already marked, then your answer is splendid, superb and correct. And totally not necessary.

RE: State mathematics standards WTF
Nonsense, the problem is expressly designed to require that people slow down and evaluate the entire situation, rather than glancing at the problem and guessing they know what is presented.
Ya know, like the way an adult should approach every problem in life. Ya know, like how we're trying to educate children by having them goto school in the first place...
Granted, the fact that the initial answerer got the question wrong implies that we've got the wrong group responsible for training our children analytical skills.

RE: State mathematics standards WTF
Eh, so nice of you to sign up JUST to tell us that d||e but I think you should try again, because there's nothing in the math that shows that those ARE parallel. They just APPEAR to be.
Prepare to defend your honor, but I sense that you're missing something fundamental in the problem definition. Like the part that there are only 3 defined 90 degree angles.

Hitler also had a few peoples killed.@derula said:
Why not? Hitler kept calling a "tausendjägriges Reich" (thousand years old Reich) what essentially only lasted for 12 years. It's in my blood.@upsidedowncreature said:
[u]It means precisely 197.[/u] Don't be a fucktard and try to redefine a well-known phrase to whatever you want it to mean.Hang on, when you say "a few" could we just clarify that please?
I think a few usually means around 200. -

<div style="AOL">me too!</div> What're ya'll's overage rates? fucking ridiculous the overpriced anal-rapage we allow those bastards to get away with.I wish an unlimited data connection in the US was a few bucks a month. I pay $60 for 5GB /month, which is pretty standard.
It's about the same for me too (florida). -

RE: Why is there a TV icon in Microsoft Word?
@belgariontheking said:
Also, the tags had something to do with it. People also don't seem to grok that a DVR requires a HDD of some sort, so therefore there is a limited amount of space to store things. They think it's an artificial limitation.@drachenstern said:

Wait, did I miss something?I wonder if they noticed it was the same icon as the "Save" menu item.
Three[b]1[/b] words:[b]2[/b] TiVo.[b]3[/b]Tivo is not three words.
Tivo is not even two words.
The fact that she thought the disk looked like a TV probably had nothing to do with tivo at all.

wanna explain to a kid why an erection longer than 4 hours should be seen by a doctor?
An erection that lasts more than 4 hours should be seen by everybody. It should be made into a roadside attraction. There should be tickets and souveniers and everything.What sorts of souvenirs?
The usual: postcards, playing cards, little ceramic figurines, locks of actual pubi--

You know, on second thought, I don't really want to know the answer.

Three words: TiVo.
