Sinc thiiuiis thread was boompz, upz, yeah, I am drunkz reet now.
Hey, I have a Masters in English so, I have the right to butcher the English language. How the hell a drunken loser like me got two graduate degrees is beyond me. Obviously, the American College System doesn't work.![]()
No seriously, I am wasted (I drank two fifths of vodka today, which now that I think about it, does that make it one tenth?), how the hell I am able to write this coherent is beyond me. I guess dolphins do drink like fish, but type well with their flippers despite of it.

you might be able to make (some) sense, but i think the drinking has impaired your math. that'd make it 4/10, not one tenth of vodka... unless you meant to say you had half a fifth of vodka... isn't two fifths, like two entire bottles?!?! if you drank that much, i'm surprised you're still conscious/alive.![]()

What is it with you Asians and math? :P
Not but, seriously, lol, I was thinking about this in my altered state. When I was an undergrad, I was a Psychology/English double major, lame, I know, but anyhow, when I took Experimental Psychology, I had to conduct an experiment and do a report on it. I included an independent group, dependent group, and control group. And when it was all said and done, I had to run a Statistical Analysis using our friend SPSS, that is a stats software program. Well, it turned out that there wasn’t a statistical significance between the three groups, and really, it didn’t matter since I wasn’t going to get graded on that, but rather on the design on the experiment.
But because I am crazy, lol, I went back and fudged the numbers in order to “show” that the dependent variable showed α = .02 standard deviation. Lol! So wrong and wouldn’t dare pull that sort of crap these days, well, because my rep as a part time researcher would go down the drain.
I am such a nerd.
And I am also drunk, lol, hope my hungover tomorrow isn’t statistically valid. :P
Oh, btw, I am not lying, I can drink that much, I knocked off 5 bottles of vodka this weekend, my tolerance is that crazy, I take after my grandfather on my mother's side, and he's still alive. :O
haha, that's an amazing tolerance. i can drink a half a bottle of bourbon and most of the time be ok. any more or any mixing and i'll end up barfing all over the place. i had like 6 glasses of champagne at a wedding on saturday and aside from being super sleepy, i felt totally fine the next day. i blame my kid for waking me up at 9am on sunday for my super sleepiness. if i could've slept in until noon or later like i used to, i'd have felt fantastic!
you'd be surprised... i'm not really any sort of math wiz or anything. i took AP calculus, but i pretty much did not enjoy it whatsoever. i get equally bothered by both simple math and english spelling/grammar mistakes (not counting legitimate typos). oh who am i kidding? simple french spelling/grammar mistakes get me, too. lol. btw, i consider algebra to be simple math. i remember being premed in college and my ex-bf who wanted to be a drama major got it in his head that he wanted to switch over and be premed also. so he signed up at the local jc for chemistry and algebra classes. i think he ditched the chem classes when he saw how... hard it was for him... and then i tried to tutor algebra to him. i've been told by lots of people that i'm a good teacher, to the point, where i was always used to train people at my last job because i did a pretty effective job at it, but... wow... it was so frustrating trying to get him to understand that when 2x+y=6 and y=0 that x must be 3.![]()
