Raise your hand if you have a girlfriend, or even have contact with the opposite sex. Thanks.

I thought you were engaged?

Then it's not girlfriend, but fiancee.

Fiancé

I guess that makes a grand total of 2.

At the same time.

I'm not much into relationships after my last one. I just prefer casual hook ups these days. All the advantages of having a girlfriend, plus being completly free. And before I get scolded by the few women here, I only do it when she feels exactly the same way.

It will probably change when I get out of college and have a steady job though.

there's women in this sausage fest? I thought they abandoned this place long ago. haermm

We're few in number.

hahaha.

He has a point Goku can use the Spirit Bomb...

I've been saying that for a while now, but apparently everyone ignores me.

Also, Matt, that's a thread fail. You can't edit your way out of this one. *evil laugh*

I just saw The Empire Strikes Back again, and I must say my favorite moment is still the same.

The entire movie the Millenium Falcon has trouble with the hyperdrive (I lost count how many times they tried it), and then at the end of the movie when they're trying to get away from Bespin, Chewie is trying to repair it again while R2D2 is fixing C-3PO. Then you can just read R2's mind when he's like, "****, do I have to do everything here myself", so he plugs in and 2 seconds later they're in hyperspace...

Effing badass.

shut up

its fact.

Actually, you can prove with calculus that 0==1. I don't remember the proof anymore, but i saw it done once as a novelty.

Aww, you like me!

0.9999999999... =!= 1 just like 0.3333333333... =!= 1/3

Repeating decimals by their very nature cannot mathematically exist.

Let k = the number of units that the number W possesses.

A decimal acts as a representation of a fraction where W/10^K.

The number of units of the denominator = the number of units of the numerator + 1.

The number of units of the numerator = the number of units of the denominator - 1

For the numerator to be a number that contains an infinite number of units to meet the requirement of W/10^K where k = the number of units that the number W possesses, the denominator would have to be a number that possesses a number of units even greater than an infinite number of units! That would require there to be a limit to the concept of infinity which could be surpassed. In which case 0.9999999999... or 0.3333333333... would not be able to continue indefinitely and a repeating decimal cannot mathematically exist.
