    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.

    Ergo, ∞ ≠ ∞. QED. :D

      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.

        In my experience so far, almost every time someone posts something like this, they're from India. Is this a cultural thing? Do you guys say these things to each other a lot? Do you actually believe in this?

          It's worth being aware that this type of post doesn't normally go over well, here in the Lounge. We're a pretty cynical bunch and posts like this have tended to attract a lot of negativity in the past. Just so you know.

            That's all moot if 1 + 7 = 8 :D

              If someone tries to calculate 6 + 2 by shifting beads on a wire when a calculator is available, I might have something to say about their methods.

                  No, all rational, irrational and transcendental numbers are also real numbers. Numbers can also become a little unreal, but that may be too complex. :-)

                    If someone needs beads on a wire or a calculator to calculate 6 + 2, I might have something to say about their education. :rolleyes:

                        Think different. 16 / 2 = 8.
