...I had expected a prime number to win that crown!
Given the mystery of 6, maybe irrational numbers aren't irrational!
Funny you used 6.
I can't recall the number of times, when I sub math, a kid will say "I have a question". Without fail I will say ," The answer to everything is 6."
Then, I help them for real!

Hold hands out in front, palms toward you, make a fist of each, then show 42 as binary.

(Every time I tell someone that, they protest that Adams couldn't have meant that).


[ Edit to add: thumbs don't count. You have 2 nibbles. Make a 4 with one, a 2 with the other. ]

The republicons made sure they could legally accept foreign and John Roberts and his band of merry thieves thought it was perfectly all right to do so.

They call it "long division" because it takes too long

At some point, someone will tell them that "average" can mean something OTHER than a so-so hamburger. And just wait til they find out about the invention of the pocket calculator!

ActBlue contributions gain interest at a rate of 10% annually, compounded daily. That should tie him in knots.

Can't wait to see his response...................


PS: Can't do that myself because I don't do social media.
