Glenn's math doesn't add up.

Look, as long as 80 + 7 = 87, that's all the math you need to know

Yeah, but he made 2+2=3.

I use one of these two great things very often.

I am VERY bad at the other two, admittedly.

ROCK!

Ummmm, there's no 2+2=3. He said that my list of three things contained 2 that were great, and that of those two great things he used ONE often. Of the list of three things, since he uses ONE often, he admits to being bad at the other TWO.

1+2=3

You need to have a talk with the Dean about your Calc professor

Yeah, the calc classes were full, so I deferred it till next semester.

However, with my reading comprehension skills, I don't know how I got into my English classed.

man, those things suck. I don't want someone else "doing me a favor" by turning off a TV I was watching. If someone doesn't want to watch TV, I can understand that, but they shouldn't go places where TVs are playing and make that decision for other people.

oh man, they were talking about that thing on the radio this morning. saying how the guy who invented it was some electrical engineer, and was frustrated when he was at a sports bar with his friends because they'd all be distracted by the various TVs that were around. first, they (the morning radio show people) made some comments about the stereotypical social skills of electrical engineers in the first place, then they were imagining what the situation would be when all these people were at the bar watching a football game or whatever, and suddenly all the TVs in the place just turned off. and they found some geek over in the corner with this little gadget. i'd like to see pictures of that.

Yeah, rather than considering it as a moral decision about who shouldn't be watching TV, I think of it as a prank. And that said, I want one.

erik · Post by **erik** » Sat Oct 23, 2004 4:21 pm

Regardless of the reasoning behind why the person chooses to turn off my TV, the bottom line is they turn it off. That is not cool.

Bingo!

That's the spirit it was posted in... I, who really don't care about TV one way or the other, would find that kind of prank funny.

That said, I can see some people who enjoy their TV (15-16) who might find it not so funny... though the sets could all be turned back on.

But the confusion would be something to see, say, during the Superbowl or something, the tv's in a bar just start going out....

Hypothetically speaking, of course....

What about the hypothetical beating/rioting/looting as a result? Oh, if someone had killed the TV before the penalty in yesterdays Man U vs Arsenal game, I would have been reaching for my hypothetical smashing stick and looking for some hypothetical gadget-wielder ...
