I found this the other day, see under "qualifying question":

I think it would be perfect for the BBS :)

I don't speak math.

Is always the right answer.

Now would somebody please explain the question for the dyscalculus sufferers among us?

Blasphemy!!!!!

I hate numbers.

:(

yeah...it should be more like...a filosophycal question...though I guess that wouln't really be possible :p

:(:(:(:(:(:(

(Is currently re-taking GCSE maths for the fourth time)

Seriously, is this a joke??

If its not I find it ABSURD. A lot of people throw the phrase "That goes against all that totse stands for" around, but this really is a case where that phrase would fit very well.

Hell, plenty of new registrations are thirteen years old, and regardless of ability in mathematics, just havent even had the OPPORTUNITY to learn about any of that stuf. I sure hadn't when I first registered for the forums, and I STILL havent learned ANY of that stuff (except some of the ones that appear to be just simple arithmetic).

What does mathetmatics or whatever it is (I'm not even sure) have to do with being a totse member? I'm sure there are plenty of people who are very skilled and educated about arithmetic and algebra and all of that stuff, but make terrible totse members - in fact I know there are.

I like the way you think.

God, you're a dumbass Sambob.

I vote that you'd need to be able to do this to join Totse. (http://tinyurl.com/yospxc)

Or a spelling test!

:p

Why am I such a dumbass? I'm sorry I'm so 'dumb'. But really thank you for your informative and helpful answer, I will really miss your input around here as a moderator, since you are so helpful.

Or a spelling test!

:p

that's racist! :p

Faithless is helpful in HB and within the forums.

Though I hate faithless and Sambob equally much, I must agree with Faithless on this one.

Faithless: makes everything into a joke, can't have a serious convo with him

Sambob: turns everything into an argument.

try to find an inbetween.

that's racist! :p

And sexist!

I'm not trying to argue!! I'm being serious I don't understand whats so funny about the math thing. If its some kind of trick or joke its completely over my head.

How am I supposed to know if jackketch is posting this as a joke or not? Since we're just GENERALISING everything moderators do, could you generalise jackketch for me because I dont have any idea of hes being serious with this thread idea or not.

I'm not trying to start an argument, all I am saying is that I think its a VERY BAD idea to have some kind of math related admissions 'question' for new user registration on totse.com

I'm sorry I dont understand everyones joke, Im sorry Im such a dumbass, but at least im not being an ASSHOLE.

I'm not trying to argue!!

eum...I beg to differ, look up again!

Oh and I apologise to jackkethc and jebuonag for getting the two of you confused I was posting in the Harry Potter thread while I was thinking about this thread, or maybe it was the other way around.

Well sybil, I just asked Faithless why he or she thinks I am such a 'dumbass' (I thought Faithless was a she so now I am very confused). I don't see whats wrong with asking that, or asking for ANYONE else to explain to me why I'm such a dumbass for not understanding a math problem.

srs biznis: innanet

my sarcasm is lost on some...

All you said is "I think it would be perfect for the BBS"

I vote that you'd need to be able to do this to join Totse. (http://tinyurl.com/yospxc)

HAH! Now that I can do!!


..Is it wrong to be able to dance in complete synchronisation with michael jackson..?

The prison take on that music video is fucking great, btw. Do you think those people are real prison inmates?

Welcome to Cebu.

Or a spelling test!

:p

This would actually be beneficial to a lot of Totseans. :D Just think of the increased post quality!

I lol'd throughout this thread. Thank you, co-mods.

*joke goes over head*

*joke goes over head*

lol, you must be short.

lol, you must be short.

I guess so.

It's alright dear, I thought it was lawl-tastic.

If it were put into place, I would fail badly, and you know how much you love having me here jeb ;)
If it were an art history question, I'm sure it would be the other way round :D

*head explodes*

I personally think that anyone who can keep a straight face during this video needs a totse membership plus five bucks

Yes I know it's in japanese, you don't need to understand it.

Well, I didn't laugh, and I feel kinda violated by the male dancers clothing and moves...can I have my 5 dollars now :(...

If they didn't like maths, we could include other topics, such as Geography, History, and sport.


That's the states, the civil war, and baseball, for our American readers. ;)

-deus-

Laugh Out Loud! You are right on the money, we Americans don't know anything about the rest of the world!

HA! you frowned, you don't get it! I love the japanese :D

you roll your eyes, but you know it's tru. Maybe not everybody, but most Americans.

you roll your eyes, but you know it's tru. Maybe not everybody, but most Americans.

The same is true for people anywhere dumbass.

Idiocy doesn't recognize national borders.

Also, lol at sybil's sense of superiority.

you roll your eyes, but you know it's tru. Maybe not everybody, but most Americans.

Why is so hard to accept that some Americans do have a basic knowledge of other nation's history?

Despite popular belief, it's not impossible for North and South Americans to know who Charlemagne was, what NSDAP stands for, or be aware of the tensions between the ROC and PRC .

I'm so sick and tired of being insulted by people because they think I don't know about anything outside of the Americas.

HA! you frowned, you don't get it! I love the japanese :D

The people that invented shitting dick-nipples, bukakke, eels in the ass and cartoon child-rape?

Also, lol at sybil's sense of superiority.

Absolutly not, as Jive said so nicely in the post above, every country has their idiots, that much, is for sure.

And Jive, as I said, MOST Americans, but most certainly not ALL!

Just look at my signature, you can't say that it doesn't make you a bit sad that Americans think that the UK uses British dollars right? I mean 3 year olds here in belgium know the currency in the UK

Do you know the currency of Mexico?(you'll look it up no doubt and pretend you do, but give an honest answer if you can)

I'm just making a guess here, honestly, but I'm guessing pesos...? And I did not look it up, scout honor :) (I'm not in the scouts, but...you know what I mean ^^)

How many Belgians would know that offhand like you did()?

Again, read what I wrote before. I said "every country has his idiots", one country just has more then the other and even though I would like to think that 80% would know that off hand...It's probably more like 20...:(

And my point is proven...

Go me(at)!

and your point was...

what was my point actually :p?

I'm going to bed...

To be fair, the pound is a silly and outdated name for currency.

Where are your twonies? Modernize.

And Jive, as I said, MOST Americans, but most certainly not ALL!

Just look at my signature, you can't say that it doesn't make you a bit sad that Americans think that the UK uses British dollars right? I mean 3 year olds here in belgium know the currency in the UK

Well to be fair Belgium is right next door to England; European nations have had the chance to inter-mingle for thousands of years.

I'm just saying you really can't expect the citizens of countries thousands of miles away to know much about your neighboring countries as you do. I mean I wouldn't be surpised if a if Germans didn't know the currency of Brazil or if Italians don't know what the capital of Utah is.

Now that we're all solved the problems of the globe, I'm going to go back to being confused by this thread.

To whom it may concern:

I was joking.

-deus-

Trouble maker!!! lynch him!!!

I've lost a little respect for the people who are seriously laughing at others who cant solve that stupid fucking maths problem.
It makes you very snooty cruel people.

I'm not impressed.

Who cares if you're impressed?

Wah. Teh. Fook.

I guess my lineage would also be full of crazy people if my ancestors spent two thousand years stuck on an island without the capability for deep sea sailing with nothing better to do than eat fish and figure out how to make weird shit out of rice.

Anyway, I assume you guys have seen this. (http://youtube.com/watch?v=LbvP7dT3Dx0)

Wow...

This thread has been more entertainment than the christmas vacation season in Spurious when all the kids are out of school looking for something to do.

The people that invented shitting dick-nipples, bukakke, eels in the ass and cartoon child-rape?

You fucking got it
