You know what I find hilarious? The fact that, at this very moment, at least one person in New York is committing suicide because the Mets lost game 7 of the NLCS. You know I'm right.
Speaking of losers, I was just reading this old post of mine. I think everything laid out in that post makes me such a fucking loser that things actually circle back around to where it makes me fucking awesome. Just not as awesome as Math or the TI-G.O.D., of course.
Oh, and as a corollary to that post, I ended up overclocking my calculator after reading about how to do it.

Math is such a fucking badass
Math: If you hate it, it hates you. If you like it, it hates you more.
I dunno, that's not all quite right. Okay, sure, some kids think they like math, but it's easy for them to like it because they're actually stupid and not really getting it; they only think that's the case. And some kids who think they suck at it probably work harder at it and end up getting good as a result. But by the same token, there are some who really get off on math, and are good at it. They obviously weren't polling any kids who are going to grow up to be scientists, mathematicians, or engineers.
