There are 400 peasants attempting to push the block off a cliff: 120 of them can push with a force of 50 kg, 200 if them can push with a force of 20 kg, and 80 of them can push with a force of 25 kg.

The irony alone is enough to make anyone laugh I would think. I am not sunny at all.

I've never been administered morphine myself but a friend was trampled by a horse and was sent home with a bottle of the stuff for their RN mother to administer as needed. She still raves about it.

I would tell you what ratio of people feel the same as you but that would require math.

Ah, I see. And math was pushed off of a cliff, correct? Not to mention it's a maniacal way of torchering students.

This is too funny I hate math, but I must admit I am really good at it. I always did well on exams and stuff, but for the life of me, I hated it with a burning passion!

I was in a chatroom the other day and had a guy see this and go on to defend math as vital to art. Of course, he admitted to being a math professor. I threw him over the cliff too
