Here's a fun experiment you can do with your body without the need for any numbers!

On the first day of your next period start drawing notches on some object, say like a saber tooth tiger bone. Every day after that (every time you see the sun), you make a new notch. When you get your next period, you stop drawing notches on the bone and start a new bone.

You'll know when you will have to menstruate when the amount of notches on one bone matches the notches on the other! Yay ^_^

(ps if you haven't figured it out this was how women figured out their menstrual cycles before the invention of numbers)

What else did you learn today?

Great, so women can count.

Too bad they still have problems with 3D spaces, Laplace transforms, and calculating dickstrokes per second eigenvalues/vectors. And MATLAB. But everyone has problems with MATLAB.

let me tell you a few things about Simulink, son.

Dumbtarded conspiracy theories. What you learned is that some people believe that fluff.

I'm trying to decide if these women (he has links! :O) would be trying to be prepared to bleed onto the ground or to maximize childbirthing

Men would've had to scratch marks on the wall to tell when their womenfolk were going to become she-bitches.

this reminds me of a conversation I had with a friend about whether imaginary numbers have real-world applications. I said they did.

Yeah, I thought so. I did a double-take when my sister told me. I didn't think it was something you could catch like homosexuality.

Or how many times they had to do some self-performing because they had no she-bitches to do it for them.

Electric power transmission. Imaginary numbers are used to gauge the efficiency of appliances used at the receiving end of the power grid. You draw a little right triangle with one axis being imaginary, and the perpendicular axis being real. The real axis is what is required at the receiver's end, and the hypotenuse is the actual amount the powerco has to generate. The imaginary portion gets emitted as waste or something. LOL CIRCUITS

Today I learned that:

-Chocolate is actually a major source of copper and magnesium.

-One ounce of chocolate contains the same amount of caffeine as a cup of decaff coffee (6mg). Brewed coffee has 100 mg of caffeine per cup.

-The company that I work for is actually still very much family owned. Way awesome :jess:

I went to the DMV and learned that some people are too damned stupid to drive.

I heard about a dozen people say they studied hard for the written test this time, only for them to fail. Again. I have never picked up a the driver's handbook they give you in my life or taken one of their stupid practice test and I only missed 1 when I took it. :mad2:

I never really had problems with MATLAB. The coding just made sense to me.

That sounded freakishly sexual..but painful.

no, no, no... women were the first accounting and finance people.

When God saw Adam and Eve had bit the apple and told them they needed to pay with blood, Eve asked if she could pay her part in monthly installments

And we are still paying it... Dumb Eve didn't know financing something is made in a way we never get to pay the balance -.-
