2+2=5?

Thanks for clearing it up ~_~
I was reading it like
Q - Cu
T - Ti
P - Pi

Anyway, with some noticable lateness, that is a great joke

1984 was a mandatory read for my grade 12 English class, thus in the curriculum. Although teachers are given a choice of books, it's one of them that is usually chosen for highschools across all of my province.

12th grade... we had farenheit 451, killer angels (I'm in the U.S.), and Clockwork Orange (-.-) no 1984, where do you go to school? If you don't mind.

I used to be at pere rene de galinee, now i'm at the university of waterloo. Farenheit 451 was a choice for precollegial students.

I believe he's past 12th grade... you should start reading now.

Sad ... that took me a day to figure out =/ I feel ashamed.

Why am I the only one that still doesnt get this

(shit -.- )

Read the following slowly and out loud in the loudest possible voice to the nearest female:

R-----U-----18------Q------T-------Pi

Spelled it out for you, literally.

Almost correct as you see in the picture the R and U are above the 18 so the correct sentence is :

Are You OVER 18 Cutypie

Just your thoughts

2+2=5 for extremely large values of 2 :-)

numbers thier not even real.
thats why stuff like 2+2 =5 happens.

numbers are abstract, and just like anything abstract dont have 2 exist as 1 states it does.

for example i am not sitting in this chair underneath my ass.
as a matter of fact this supposed chair does not exist.

get it??

meh GL for those who dont understand

also.
nah shes 17, but a senior

hmmm we got some sensibly theories comin kinda.Anyways if the chair under your ass isnt real then your butt would be in pain as u wouldve fallen from the supposed non-existent chair unless u were standing.Your right i dont get it that much

.Im confused :cry:

Indeed.

Anywho, 2+2=4. Get over it. :roll:

1+1=5

There I just changed math. It works cause we accept it.

Significant digits

In measurement in physics, the number of significant digits is usually encoded in the way a number is written. That is, unless otherwise specified, "2" has only one significant digit, which means it represents a measurement with a margin of error of 0.5, which means the actual value may lie between 1.5 and 2.5. When adding such measurements together, the margins of error are also added, so 2 ± 0.5 + 2 ± 0.5 = 4 ± 1.0 . And since "5" actually means 5 ± 0.5, these margins clearly overlap and one could jokingly argue that the numbers are the same. When adding more precise measurements, for example 2.0 + 2.0, the margin of error is smaller and the maximum number that could be "reached" would in this case be 4.1. See also approximation.

Also interestingly enough, it can be "proven" that you cannot get from point A to point B. Essentially that travel is impossible.

i havent read what u said due to another thread that gave me a headache but i think thats the best answer so far

Depends on the margin of error. Are you speaking in two significant digits? 2.5 can represent 2.54, so 2.5 + 2.5 = 5.08.

Numbers can be thought to represent points on a number line. Since there are an infinite number of points on a number line, the number 2 is just an approximation on that line. There are an infinite number of points between "2" and "3" so theoretically you could say 2+2=5 for exceptionally large values of 2.
