Ok, so I went to the store to buy some cokes.

Found that a 24-pack costs about $7 each, so I went to buy 2.

When I exited the store, the handles split on both packs, which pissed me off. I ended losing 2 cans from each pack.

On the way to the bus stop, as I was holding the packs in the unintended positions, I see a guy who looks a little thirsty, so I tossed him a soda. He thanked me.

While waiting on the bus, I dropped the top pack and 5 cans rolled out, 4 of which got smashed by the traffic. When I was going out to get the lone can, 2 kids pocketed 3 of my sodas from my other pack. I couldn't chase them because my bus pulled up to the stop, so I put my can in the top pack and cussed out the shitheads while I entered my bus.

While on the bus, an old woman came up to me and asked to buy some of my sodas, for she forgot to buy some at the store. I sold her 9 sodas from my top pack for $3.

When I got off the bus, I took inventory and found that I could condense the 2 packs with a few left over, so I pocketed the extras and drank the odd soda.

While passing by a liquor store, I saw that they had 12 packs for sale at $4 each, so I bought a 12 pack to help replace my missing sodas.

As I was walking up in my building, my landlord came up to me for the rent. That sneaky *** already got my rent for the month, so I knew he wanted a soda. So I gave him one from inside my pockets, knowing that its all nice and shook up, and ran inside my apartment before the soda exploded in his face.

How many cans of pepsi did I bring home?

Mt dew is not a contraceptive... otherwise I'd just drink a dew before I do the do.

that would be a nice solution to birth control if it was true.

Calculate the length of the side x, given that sin θ = 0.6



There's a math problem for you =)

Indeed. This myth is so old it's annoying at this point.

The sum of the square roots of any two sides of an isosceles triangle is equal to the square root of the remaining side.
User submitted image

An isosceles triangle is one with 2 sides the same length right? And the square root of 4 is 2, and of 9 is 3? So if you have a triangle with two sides 9cm, one side 4cm, the sum of the square roots of the two long sides is 6, not 2 <_<

I know, he's trying to sound smart in the movie (I'm assuming you've seen wizard of oz). He's talking about the Pythagorean theorem, but his line isn't correct

I haven't seen wizard of oz for like, 15 years or something... You mean he actually says that in the movie and they try and palm it off as being right? Also does that mean that my maths was actually right too? <_<
