(J)obsessive Compulsive Disorder

Ok fellas, sometimes we take things a little too far and little too seriously. Though few will accept this fact of life: The road to your goals often starts with letting go of the desire.

Some of you haven't quite accepted this fact and I am not about to preach it again. Just want you to relax, enjoy your day and chill out.

I am getting ready to go build a snowman and a fire. Bbqing and drunken asshattery shall ensue.

But for those of you still tripping yourselves up over the next interview or that last one that you tanked....take heed...

There is always someone doing a whole lot worse who you can ridicule or perhaps even learn from.

Here's 14 epic fails to brighten up your day. Have fun and remember your phone number.

skip to number 10 if you are the stereotypical monkey

 
Edmundo Braverman:
Love it.

But if you can't figure out the cubed root of 1,000 and the decimal equivalent of 15/16 in less than 5 seconds, you'd never make it as a trader, and probably have no business at a superday.

Lol, in my econ class this girl, who is a math major, was arguing with me over whether or not you can divide by zero. We fought for 10 minutes untill finally she said "YOU ARE A FUCKING KNOW IT ALL" (I was expecting her to talk about Rhiamon Spheres), but what did she do?

Pulled out a TI - 89 Titanium clicked 1 / 0 enter.

Apparently when a calculator says undefined it is a typo.

What is a Rhiamon sphere? Do you mean Riemann sphere?

Blastoise,

The discussion should have gone as follows:

Blastoise: "You cannot diwide by zewo unress you awe Kim Jong Il (all hail the Gwowious Readaw)."

Anomolous Female Math Major: "Yes you can."

Blastoise uses 'water pump'

Blastoise: "I just needed to check if you were Gwowious Readaw. You awe not. You cannot diwide by zewo."

Q.E.D.

Blastoise pisses on Ivysaur
