    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.

        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:

          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.

          It's been rumored that 4 + 4 is the dyslexic friendly version.

            Why not write 8 as:

            2 * pi / arctan(1)

                              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.

                                  2 X 4 = 8 and 2 to the 3rd power = 8. I have 2 dogs with 4 legs each and that makes 8, I just eat lunch.

                                      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?
