Mathematical proof that girls are evil!
Disclamer: this is meant to be a joke. I found it on a website I was surfing on and thought I'd share it. The views expressed here are not necessarily those of the author of this post.

1. Given the time and money I spent on my evil-ex...
I think that "proof" could work to show boys are evil as well. x(

4.  < tongue-in-cheek > But there's a flaw in your proof!
Edited on Tue Feb-24-04 04:04 PM by nm3damselfly
"First we state that girls require time and money"

This statement is translated into a mathematical equation thus:

"Girls = Time x Money"

The problem is this: When creating an equation from a word problem, we ALL know that "time and money" should be written:

"Girls = Time + Money"

< /tongue-in-cheek >

9. Good catch!
Edited on Tue Feb-24-04 05:24 PM by Gman
You must be a math teacher!

I believe it should read:

Given: Time = Money

Proof:
Girls = Time + Money

(substitute Money for Time...)
Girls = Money + Money

Girls = 2Money

1/Money * Girls = 2Money * 1/Money

Girls/Money = 2

Begging the question if Girls divided by money equals 2, 2 what??

Or...
Given Time = Money

Proof:
Girls = Time + Money

(substitute Time for Money)

Girls = Time + Time

Girls = 2Time (heh, heh!)

1/time * Girls = 2Time * 1/time

Girls/Time = 2

Or do girls require twice the time of other things???

Ultimately substituting either way, girls require twice the time (2Time) and twice the money (2Money)as other things.

</big tongue in cheek!>

12. another flaw in proof
Edited on Tue Feb-24-04 06:12 PM by 56kid
the love of money is the root of all evil.

So that means.....
I don't know exactly, except that love is in there somewhere with girls evil and money.


on edit does it mean girls = love plus evil?

do evil and love cancel each other out or augment each other?

think I'll quit before I get confused

14. That is technically true...
However you could look at it like this....

For every unit of time spent with the girl... requires X amount of dollars....

So you CAN actually say it as 'time * money'

Since for each unit of time, you multiply that by X amount of dollars that the woman requires for whatever time unit....

Just twisting it around a little...

Heyo

15. Ahh, but having a girl is the PRODUCT of time and money.
So, HAH!

7. Hollywood is the root of evil.
I have previously seen this equation displayed as "Hollywood is the root of evil." A friend of mine emailed it from England - she saw a British professor do it as a proof at a lecture.

13. The lesser known solution
Girls = (sqrt(evil))^2 can also yield

Girls = -Evil

And that's the solution I prefer.
