Slashdot’s Favorite Equations
The slashdot posse are discussing their favorite equations at the moment (that’s the kind of thing they do!). Among the brain-melt equations like this…
ih/2Pi dPhi/dt = hc/2iPi (A1 dPhi/dx1 + A2 dPhi/dx2 + A3 dPhi/dx3) + A4 mc(squared)Phi
…and this…
x = x0 + V * cos (theta)* t, y = y0 + V * sin (theta) * t - (1/2) * g * t^2
…was this one, by somone who goes by the name peculiarmethod…
First we state that women require time and money:
Women = Time X Money
And as we all know “time is moneyâ€
Time = Money
Therefore by substituting Money for Time we get:
Women = Money X Money
Women = (Money)2
And because “money is the root of all evil†we therefore can state:
Money = (Evil)1/2
And Since
(Money)2 = Women
Then (Money)2 = Evil
And we are forced to conclude by substituting “women” for “(money)2″ from above that:
Women = Evil
I don’t agree personally but then again, I’m just an amateur!!!
Update (a few hours after posting)
Suchetha has corrected peculiarmethod’s eqation…
First we state that women require time and money:
Women = Time X Money
- - - error - - -^
this should be
Women = Time + Money
and from there onwards ..
And as we all know “time is moneyâ€
Time = Money
Therefore by substituting Money for Time we get:
Women = Money + Money
Women = 2(Money)
And because “money is the root of all evil†we therefore can state:
Money = (Evil)^1/2
And Since
2(Money) = Women
and
(Money)^1/2 = Evil
And we are forced to conclude by substituting “women” for “(money)2″ from above that:
Women = 2((Evil)^1/2)
or in words
women are double the root of all evil
which means absolutely nothing
I guess I was right to disagree all along!!!
