Let M = Money;
Let E = Evil;
Let W = Women;

Now consider these hypotheses that:
Money is the Root of all evil: [ M = SQRT E ]
Women are time and Money: [ W = T * M ]
Time is Money: [ T = M ];

1. Since we have established T = M then: W = M * M = M²

2. Therefore, If M = SQRT E, then M² = E.

3. Therefore, W = M² = E, shortened to W = E.

There you have it, folks: Mathematical Proof that Women are Evil!!!



[ edit: of course, I am joking; feel free to substitute Men, Pets, Houses or Boats, or anything else for Women in the equation whach can be said to be " equal to time and money" ]

edited again to update formula.

But that's just it--there is nothing else!!

OOOOOHHHH!!! You guys are gonna be in BIG BIG Trouble Big Time when Lucimay sees this....I'm gonna go stock up my first aid kit RIGHT NOW!!!

iQuestor, do you have ANY idea of the magnitude of what you have just done?

Well, no. But I guess it beats being bored. Besides, LuciMay is my bud!

I hope I hope I hope! I hope I hope I hope!

Just because im pedantic:

Women are time and Money: [ W = T + M ]
Time is Money: [ T = M ];

1. Since we have established T = M then: W = M * M = M²

This bit is worng, W = 2M, not M Squared.



Okay, really time to go to bed instead of doing this.

Spotted that straight away (this is and old, old joke). Didn't seem worth pointing out. W=T*M.

(besides, i have an evil streak a mile wide!)

You need to work backwards (we're dealing with wimmen after all)

Let M = Money;
Let E = Evil;
Let W = Women;

Start with the hypothesis that:

Woman ARE Evil

So: W = E

Money is the Root of all evil: [ M = SQRT E ]

Therefore: W = M²

So: E = M² (Einstein may disagree)


Time is Money

So: W = TM

The correct hypotheses is:

Women are "Time" TIMES "Money": [ W = T * M ]

Which leads to the conclusion that the LESS time you spend with them, the more money it takes to quell their evil - but that doesn't necessarily work the other way

i have no idea what you're talking about. i'm notoriously bad at math.

Look, anyone who's ever been married can tell you that (just like Mama Boucher said) wimin is 'da Debil!

It just sucks for us that they feel and taste so good.

Nah...that's the payoff for the decreased life-span

Guys, I can't believe The Watch is still so behind the scientific community. Please...women are evil? Have you been reading any journals from the past century or so?

As we all know, money makes the world go round. Money is the root of all evil. Therefore, the world (earth) is evil.

And I think we forgot to mention, but as time is money, time is evil.

If the space we live within (earth) is evil, and time (the dimension 'after' length width and height) is evil, everything which we can perceive is evil.

This is as good a place as any for this:

There's a mathematical formula for the "beer goggles" effect?
by Julia Layton

February 9, 2007
Many of us have heard of the so-called "beer goggle" effect. It's the phenomenon that occurs when someone's had a few alcoholic drinks and suddenly, all of those people who looked semi-attractive on entering the bar look really, really appealing. Scientists have shown that it's not just a lowering of standards -- alcohol actually stimulates the part of the brain that judges facial attractiveness.

In 2002, researchers at St. Andrews University and Glasgow University in Scotland took 80 college students and had half of them drink a "moderate" amount of alcohol -- between one and four servings, depending on gender and body weight. The other half, the control group, remained sober. Scientists showed each subject pictures of people of the opposite sex. In all cases -- male and female alike -- the experimental (tipsy) group rated each picture an average of 25 percent more attractive than the sober group did.

The effect can reportedly be traced to the nucleus accumbens. When you're looking at another human being, the nucleus accumbens is the area of the brain that decides how attractive that human being's face is. If you look at, say, George Clooney or Angelina Jolie, this area of your brain probably experiences increased neural firing. In other words, it's stimulated. As it turns out, alcohol, all by itself, stimulates the nucleus accumbens. So when you've have a few drinks, and you look at a face you may have judged as unattractive when you were sober, your brain, under the influence of alcohol, tells you that this face is in fact somewhat attractive. And the increase in perceived attractive seems to be directly proportional to the amount of alcohol consumed.

In a more recent study, this one conducted by researchers at England's Manchester University in 2005, scientists actually came up with a mathematical formula to calculate the extent of the "beer goggle" effect on a given individual in a given situation. Their reasoning for creating this formula is that alcohol is not really the only factor affecting the drunken perception of beauty. Other factors, according to their research, include:

* How brightly lit the area is
* The observer's eye-sight quality
* The amount of smoke in the air
* The distance of the observer from the observed

The formula goes like this:

β =
(An)2 x d(S + 1)
√L x (Vo)2

where:
o An is the number of servings of alcohol
o S is the smokiness of the area on a scale of 0 - 10
o L is the lighting level of the area, measured in candelas per square meter, in which 150 is normal room lightning
o Vo is Snellen visual acuity, in which 6/6 is normal and 6/12 is the lower limit at which someone is able to drive
o d is the distance between the observer and the observed, measured in meters

Source: BBC News

The formula works out a "beer goggle" score ranging from 1 to 100+. When β = 1, the observer is perceiving the same degree of beauty he or she would perceive in a sober state. At 100+, everybody in the room is a perfect 10.

So, if I get drunk enough, I might think a room full of grandmothers is actually full of hot young ladies?

Damn. I don't know whether to keep that in mind as a last resort, or take it as a warning.

oh i am just sooooo not duh debil.

menz is the bedebilment of all wimmins.

the whole damned silver-tongued, sweet-talking lot of yuhs.

that's all i know about math.

somewhere, womehow, either directly, or indirectly, there is a woman who is controlling Holsety

I have read this before and so many problems with it. Some have been pointed out, but the woman and mathematician in me can't let it go

Money is the root of all evil - actually it is the love of money that is the root of all evil.

also there is the assumption that root means square root... well what about cube root or 4th root...etc
