| |  calculus saved my life
this one time i was at the car dealership, i would normally buy the
car with the most cup holders, but this time i ran though a quick statistic in my head.
I quickly worked out the possibility of my RC cola popping out of the cup holder as i hit a bump. Then that RC cola splashing in my eyes and temporarily blinding me as i am driving, causing a horrific car wreck.
Well i am pleased to say that i hit a bump, and low and behold, i had no cup holders, therefore i had no RC cola, there fore i had no horrific car wreck.
Post any time that you have been saved by our friend mathematics! |

I would suggest taking soft drinks out of your diet.

Hello, the calculus kid!
A brilliant and life-saving analysis . . . Quote: | I would normally buy the car with the most cup holders . . . | I judge a car by the number of knobs it has on the dashboard.
(I also kick the tires.)

| The only problem is that nowadays the majority of med schools (in the US at least) at the most recommend Calculus. | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes |  Linear Mode |
