I seriously hate math, I suck at it, yeah, but I feel I would hate it regaurdless. I have no use for anything above simple addition, subtraction or multiplication. And even that I rarely use.
People always say "well, you'll need that if there's some kind of computer malfunction and cash registers break and won't be able to calculate your total amount.". To them I say - If something like that happens, I just won't buy anything, or I'll steal it.
Math was the bane of my existence in college. I finally went to tutoring and ended up getting a B+ in intermediate algebra, a minimum of a C+ was required to finish my general ed. Then I had to take either Statistics or Contemporary Math. I chose statistics and then dropped it three days after school started, and I got stuck with that crazy Texas Instruments Calculator they make you buy, so I then took Contemporary Math which was fun. We studied the chaos theory, fractals, phi or phe. . . whatever, that kind of stuff. It was almost a joke, but it was fun. My teacher was a freak though. He told this story where he went hitch hiking when he was younger and saw a cheese burger wrapper blowing in the wind, and he kept going on about how that changed his life. Anyway.
You know what the best thing about those expensive graphing calculators is? You can play games on them. I have Tetris and Mario on mine...kept me awake during many a math class...
Blah, I've got class in the morning...I think I'm going to get some sleep now so I can at least be halfway coherent, because I have philosophy tomorrow and I love that class.

They have games on them now??? Those bastards. They didn't when I was in junior college, but that was like 13 years ago. 😮
My teacher's even more of a freak, when he was at a resturant with his wife their food didn't come so they disscussed the properties of fire and write it down on napkins 😐 That's the most nerdy, retarded thing to do.
I have my twin brother in my math class, he's like a total genius so he just lets me copy off him. I'm not bad at Math, but I still hate it.
My older brother says that he doesn't need to know all that bulshit maths stuff, he just needs adition and stuff.
