NO I DONT NEED THE VARIANCE FOR TAHT EQUATION!!!!!! You can poisson my ass. X~: The number of points Ill get on my stats quiz over the period of one hours work. X~Poisson(4) What is P(X >=6) |
That is soooooo funny.  First time I've seen that.
|
X=5 Oh, haha, that was funny! I paid too much attention during that one really difficult semester of trig. 
|
Shit....i didn't even make it past Pre-Algebra. Me and Math are mortal enemies.

The ONLY reason I made it out of High School was the fact that TI came out with this calculator in 1973.  I hated math with a passion (I was one of *those* people that needed to know WHY we needed this shit and could never get a decent answer beyond "because")  Couple that with all the "new math" horseshit shoved down our throats during that time period. I had an event in grade school forever turn me off. Dad sat down to help me with my homework. He had no clue about the "new math" crap and we did the work to the best of our ability. All my answers were correct but I got them "the wrong way" according to the teacher, so I was wrong and got a big fat zero. Got a good insight into the world at that time... your results are irrelevant, you do it the way you're told to do it or else.   Sorry for the  , just a major button push for me.

I feel the same way. My college math professors always tell me I need it for the next class up, but when I ask them about why I need it beyond that they never have an answer. |
Amateur.

You should see the impossibly stupid shit they are teaching 5th graders now. You know long division? Yeah, so do I. Apparently it isn't good enough, because we don't do it with lines and squiggles and dots. Our neighbor girl has been asking my wife for help with homework on occasion, and she's having "trouble with division". Bullshit. She does division just fine. She gets the answer using actual, oh, MATH. But because she doesn't get some freakish semi-geometric method that some shitforbrains "education researcher" came up with, she doesn't do it "right". Math is hard enough for most kids without making it harder in an attempt to be "innovative". |
sweet I have been looking all over for this episode! Thanks |
