    6 + 2 = 8 but so does 5 + 3. The way you do things is not always the only way to do them. Respect other people's way of thinking. ..

    Always remember that you are absolutely unique. Just like everyone else.

    Checked the other way - it leads to more work, while the current path goes home...I'll stay on...

      I think you should be banned! Everyone knows it 7 + 1 = 8. Don't get me started on 4 + 4 = 8. I'll get my coat.... :-O Please note the joke icon.

          You darned Integerists. Always insisting that your numbers are the only real numbers.

            If someone claims 2 + 2 equals 8, then I might point out the error. If the other person keeps insisting, then he will not be getting any respect. Sorry for that.

                  Not a fan of plus-ism, the right way is to use the negative: 745699.218967 - 745691.218967 = 8 Anything else just isn't cricket! :laugh:

                  How do you know so much about swallows? Well, you have to know these things when you're a king, you know.

                      Why not write 8 as:

                      2 * pi / arctan(1)

                                    As Pterry taught us, what matters is that you never ever name it. 6+2, 2 times 4, whatever but don't name it directly.

                                      Let's pretend for a moment you weren't lying on your side when you replied. Suppose (i.e., 'let') ∞ = ∞ => eight=ate ? I think not! Since a vest has no sleeves, my original preposition stands.

                                        6 + 2 = 8 but so does 5 + 3. The way you do things is not always the only way to do them. Respect other people's way of thinking. ..

                                        Always remember that you are absolutely unique. Just like everyone else.

                                        What if they're stupid? Or creepy? Or just assholes?

                                          But the way I do things is usually the best way.

                                          Exactly. If someone is a stalker, serial killer, abuses women, is creepy, fake, or just an ahole... I'm not going to respect that.
