sari: lol
Grrr....: I used to do paperwork at my old job, then my boss decided he couldnt afford to pay me anymore and fired me... =(
CrankyPants: Sorry Grrr
keladry: that's being laid off, it sounds better
Grrr....: its fine. Ill deal...
sari: i prefer paperwork than annoying customers
CrankyPants: I likely would have been fired by now, if I wasn't family
CrankyPants: I get annoying customers too lol
CrankyPants: wear many hats
CrankyPants: but I agree
Grrr....: I had annoying customers also... like the lady who paid me once in all one dollar bills...
CrankyPants: I'd rather paper then people often
CrankyPants: LOL
keladry: why is it so hard to become motivated to take a shower?
sari: lololololol
Grrr....: keladry: because it means you have to get up, and off the computer.
sari: because filth rocks
nolovecansaveme: keladry: idk but i often think the same thing! haha
CrankyPants: i like my showers
nolovecansaveme: mmm filth
sari: i like vanilla shampooo
keladry: i like showering too but i don't want to take them
CrankyPants: lol
keladry: though to be honest i don't want to do much of anything sooo
sari: who here likes maths as a subject?
ainomitama joined the room.
ainomitama went away.
Entropy: sari: im doing a maths degree
CrankyPants: bless you
sari: lololol
nolovecansaveme: ew..math
Grrr....: Math makes me want to puke.
sari: what will you do with it entropy?
lilmissjay: i was awful at math
CrankyPants: I'm stuck on division, numbers and I don't mix
Grrr....: sorry, that was worded badly.
CrankyPants: ll
CrankyPants: o
Grrr....: it wasnt literal.
Papillion: agrees with both grrr and jay lol
Entropy: sari: not sure, maybe actuary
keladry: math is wonderful!!!!
Entropy: stats/insurance
nolovecansaveme: VOM
Entropy: maybe just business
keladry: no i am sure you love it too
keladry: there is a type of math for everyone seriously
Entropy: maybe i'll be an artist
CrankyPants left the room. (Going to 3. Mostly Serious)
Entropy: I like numbers, so the degree is horrible
keladry: I am positive you just never were taught it well enough if you don't like, you would if you found your math you really would
keladry: i want to teach math someday hahahahahaha
sari: oh you dont like the reasoning itself entropy?
CrankyPants joined the room.
nolovecansaveme: keladry: gooodluck! haha
Papillion: wb
bluemoon: wb cranky
CrankyPants: thanks
CrankyPants: wrong button
sari: entropy, how come some people are so good at math if we all have the same crappy teachers?
mew90 It's not that some people aren't taught well enough
mew90 some people are better at math and science
mew90 others are better at english, reading, history, etc.
nolovecansaveme: i love science :)
keladry: some are BUT there really are different types of mathematics
keladry: which is why some countries abbreviate it as maths
Papillion: im good at science but suck at maths
Grrr....: i think some people are just more inclined to do well in math, and then other people, like me, are destined to find someone else to do their taxes for them, and find someone else to balance their check books, and all that stuff...
keladry: like algebra gemotery, discrete, calculus
nolovecansaveme: Papillion: same here
Grrr....: than* not then.. sorry.
Grrr....: nope.. nvm.. sorry.
keladry: i would agree that there are different types of intelligences
mew90 being good at science doesn't mean you'll be good at math, jsut sorta in the same are
mew90 a
CrankyPants: night guys
CrankyPants: be safe
nolovecansaveme: night
Papillion: night hun x
CrankyPants: brain coooooked
CrankyPants left the room. (Logged out)
keladry: but different types of math use different skills and mindsets someone who is good at algebra might not be great at triginometry and often pople who are good at math struggle with discrete mathermatics
sari: i just dont udnerstand why some people are better than others or uderstand easier than others
mew90 And then there's me who sucks at ALL math hahaha
nolovecansaveme: i like adding
mew90 I wasn't TOO bad at geometry thought
Grrr....: I just have an all around hate for math...
keladry: i really don't think you do! I am telling you
mew90 well yeah basic math I can do
Grrr....: I can add!
keladry: okay well this makes me sad. i could show you math and you would find something you liked, i just know it
Grrr....: adding is about it for me though...
mew90 I hate math too haha
keladry: adding is math! : ]
keladry: please don't say that
keladry: math loooooves you it really does and it is everywhere!
Grrr....: yeah, its the only thing in math I can do successfully...
keladry: well if you can add then you can subtract too : ]
sari: keladry, in general, when peopel are good at maths, they are good at everuthing that maths invloves, all types.
Grrr....: I dont think math is everywhere... Ik, Im in denial... let me stay there.
sari: even they like some kind of maths better
bluemoon left the room. (Logged out)
sari: but they are good at everything in most cases
keladry: sari: not always! yeah its true that having problem solving skills helps and is necessary
keladry: but really as a math ed major
keladry: you are not going to convince me i am wrong about this
keladry: : ]
sari: i know, i was just saying that the people who are good at maths, are usually good at all the kind of maths
keladry: besides i think its incredibly prejudiced to say you hate something just because it's "math"
Grrr....: I blame the geometry teacher I had for my hatred of math....
keladry: well i'm good at math and i am not good at all kinds
sari: but better that most
keladry: i really struggle with discrete mathematics
sari: i would struggle much more
keladry: better than most?
nolovecansaveme: what are discrete maths?
keladry: so what?
keladry: its not about that
sari: maybe it doesnt come as easy to you as other kind of maths
sari: but you are still good at it
Grrr....: 1+1=2! :)
keladry: i'm better at most every other academic endevour than i am discrete mathematics
sari: you are better than i am
keladry: so what?
keladry: its not about me versus you
keladry: i really don't understand this line of reasoning
sari: i know
sari: i was just saying
sari: that
Entropy: i dont mind discrete
nolovecansaveme: i really just dont use math other than the basics
keladry: oh piffle even the basics....
Entropy: i dislike markov chains very much
keladry: its more complex than you think! its amazing i took a sturctures of elementary mathematics and was amazed at how complicated things like place value are
Grrr....: I think my brain is imploding... so much math...
nolovecansaveme: ughhhhhhhhhhhhhh, headache. bedtime. eff math. the end. hahah
sari: all i know that people who like solving the problems and equations are also very good at numbers too
nolovecansaveme left the room. (Logged out)
keladry: i don't like anything that is stats : p just kidding, kind offf
mew90 stats is HELL
Entropy: yeah i couldnt possibly explain what happens to maths when you do it at an advanced level
keladry: you are wrong. i know that for a fact. i know people who love math but are not good with numbers
Entropy: stats is beautiful
sockey joined the room.
sockey left the room. (Going to 3. Mostly Serious)
sockey joined the room.
Entropy: and, im good at numbers and hate most maths
keladry: anyway, i am not going to argue with you anymore.
sari: well, most people relate math to just numbers
sockey: does anyone know how to find the baking thread?
sari: entropy im not trying to argue...
keladry: well im not most people and you can love soemthing that you are not good at
mew90 Stats is like murder on your brain
Entropy: sari: no, they dont and i never said anything about arguing
mew90 It's not a matter of anyone being wong
mew90 wrong*
Grrr....: Math is like murder on my brain....
mew90 these are all our OPINIONS
mew90 no one is WRONG
sari: i actually find this topic very intersting
sockey: how will i find the baking thread... anyone??
Entropy: these opinions is where we are failing, maths isnt based on opinion just fact
sari: sorry entropy
mew90 true
keladry: I need to shower
mew90 but our opinions aren't about how math is DONE
Entropy: it doesnt make a very interesting debate at a dinner party trust me
sockey left the room. (Going to 1. Completely General)
mew90 it's what we think ABOUT math
keladry: i really think the main issue is that when we speak in absolutes we are almost amlways wrong
mew90 so, no one is RIGHT or WRONG
mew90 it's just our THOUGHTS on the subject
keladry: you can have a wrong opinion. to say you hate all of most anything is usually wrong
Entropy: the capitals are annoying
sari: the thing is that when iwas little and learning to add and stuff with numbers
sari: i wasnt good at it
sari: so everyone
sari: said i wasnt good at maths
mew90 the capitals are to stress my point
sari: it traumatized me
keladry: when children play with pegs that fit in different holes that is math too
Entropy: yeah but im not stupid mew i do understand your point
Entropy: i wasnt saying what you think i was saying
sari: since i wasnt good with numbers, evryone said i wasnt good at maths
kcrace91 joined the room.
sari: it was very traumatizing
sari: i thought i wasnt smart enough
keladry: anyway. try not to speak in absolutes, if you would, and you can have more civil discourse in the future, for serious :P
Grrr....: See, I dont think math is all that absolute, cuz I do certain things with math, and then people look at me and tell me I'm wrong, and I'm like, 'but I did the problem?!' and they are like, 'but its wrong', and I'm like 'If its wrong, I shouldnt have been able to finish it'
sari: to do maths
Declan joined the room.
keladry: and i absolutely must shower or the people i am seeing will smell me and not in a good way
Declan left the room. (Going to 3. Mostly Serious)
sari: entropy i was telling you mys tory
Entropy: i'm simply saying that maths is such an immensely complex thing that most people actually dont have a clue about really, i mean the amount of maths i know is tiny compared to what is out there but HUGE compared with the average 19 year old
keladry left the room. (Logged out)
Entropy: sari: i was reading your story :)
sari: oh
sari: ok you then
Grrr....: I just have an issue with math... Maybe thats cuz idk what I'm doing tho..
Entropy: i understand why you struggle with maths and feel that way
sari: they didnt care if i was able to learn to think or reason properly
Entropy: lol once my housemate said in all seriousness "am i the olny one here who enjoys a good maths debate..."
sari: they cared i didnt add quicky in my head
kcrace91 left the room. (Going to 1. Completely General)
kcrace91 joined the room.
Grrr....: Math has traumatised me in a way... I remember being little and having my teacher yell at me until I cried because I couldnt multiply past my 4's times tables...
Entropy left the room. (Logged out)
sari: i was talking to entropy, she left
sari: how disrespectful
Papillion: prob got DCd
Grrr....: Maybe they just had to go? or what pap said.
mew90 The rest of us can still listen and talk with you
sari: maybe
sari: i know
sari: btu since she was the math student
sari: i felt she had this big opinion
sari: supported byt her studies
Papillion: imma go, was fun watching your debate :) tc all x
Papillion left the room. (Logged out)
Grrr....: was Entrophy a she or a he? cuz idk, and I'd feel bad if I called them a he and they were actually a she or vise versa...
sari: lol
sari: i dont really know
sari: lets take a guess
sari: i vote for a she
mew90 Grrr....: HAH!
Grrr....: I think it was a he.
sari: lolololol
sari: mmmm
sari: 10 dollars to the winner
sari: paypal
Grrr....: what do you think Mew? a He or a She?
mew90 Um
