What I wish I could say on Facebook

That doesn't even make sense.

Sure it does. The voters are the ones who put the douchebags in power. Just take the extra time and vote for a candidate that thinks the Bill of Rights doesn't end at an airport.

As much sense as not flying.

I blame the dumb-ass voters who continually support Congressmen and presidents that keep the bloated TSA going.

That would be legit if there were other people running for office that would NOT support the TSA. But that shit is one of the many ways in which both parties suck balls.

That's what I meant by "doesn't make sense." The candidates that actually advocate getting rid of the TSA are called extremists, and never get on the ballot.

One of many reasons I don't vote. You've got the freedom to waste your vote on a third party that is anti-TSA like I've got the freedom to waste my time driving hundreds of miles for 9-10 hours. At least I get a slight benefit from air travel. What's voting given you?

The passing of local ballot measures, where my vote actually does make a difference? I waste no time also voting for president, I'm already there.

The reason the TSA still is what it is is that people show with their dollars that they are willing to tolerate it. This is directly bad for me. My voting does nothing to you.

I can't find the "stupid things people I know post on facebook thread," so I'll put this here.

God didn't give you any rights. Your government did.

JFC. People actually think this?

More than you'd care to imagine.

It's half correct.

Lady - I'm probably not the right one to say it, but when your twin girls hit preschool age, and probably before that, it's very inappropriate for you to post naked videos of them wrestling on Facebook.

This shits shows up on my feed Friday morning at the office and I feel like some kind of creep. WTF.

I cannot find that thread again...

OK, answer this riddle... cuz I've got my answer, and literally no one in the comment thread that I saw had the same answer

The FB thread.

Also, 88.

Walk me through your logic.

I see:

15 + 15 + 15 = 45
X + X + 15 = 23; 2X + 15 = 23; 2X = 8; X = 4
4 + Y + Y = 10; 4 + 2Y = 10; 2Y = 6; Y = 3

Ostensibly, the last line is:
3 + 4 + 4 * 15; However, all the items are changed, so it becomes:
2 + 3 + 3 * 11; 5 + 33 = 38

Post by **Leisher** » Fri Apr 06, 2018 9:36 pm

Each of the shapes equal 15 because each side equals 1.
15 + 15 + 15 = 45

Each banana counts as 1 + another collection of shapes with 15 sides.
4+4+15 = 23

Clocks are self explanatory.
4 + 3 + 3 = 10

Amounts and math is changed for the last one.
2 + 3 + 3 = 8 x 11 = 88

Well, you failed math.

True.

I think the order of math is stupid and illogical.

PEMDAS

It's a sad sad world when simple 9th grade algebra is also a "viral riddle" that makes people lose their shit.

Post by **thibodeaux** » Sat Apr 07, 2018 8:31 am

But at least I guess now we have the answer when 9th graders ask why they need to learn algebra. So you can solve viral riddles.

PEMDAS

I know the acronym for proper math order, although I admittedly didn't think about it there.

Swap the clock and the second bunch of bananas and the answer is 28. PEMDAS is illogical.

98% of the world's population certainly doesn't need it for anything else.
