you can count on it
Would have been a better headline!
He’s indoctrinating out youth with a satanic Muslim mysticism called Al-Gebra.
in case some people don’t know: algebra actually comes from the Arabic word “al-jabr”.
Number one justification for islamophobia and sinophobia.
I legit never heard the word sinophobia and I thought it was a trigonometry joke.
I guess we need a joke that combines math and racism then.
It’s the 0th cause of Indophobia?
Sorry, didn’t mean to go off on a tangent.

Are you referring to the dihydrogen monoxide scares of the ‘00s?
100% of the people that drink that die.
🤣🤣🤣
There are still people alive who drink dhmo. But it’s close to 100% indeed.
Or bombing Agrabah?

Kinda a stupid gotcha to gatekeep with. Ask about a basic function such as “what are the 4 bases” and turn it into a teaching moment.

DNA stand for Delightful Nuclear-happy gAndhi, duh.
Like the flight where the ‘Karen’ notified the stewardess that a passenger was writing notes in a foreign language and was concerned he was a possible threat. Turned out he was doing math equations

Yeah, our stupid people really broke the mold over here. They are painfully dumb, and trying to reason with them will actually damage your health.
Maybe start punching them in the teeth?
I remember the same. It was on a big name TV station, too.
I could go for a little Shakira law.
I can hear her Kermit voice looking at this
Thy hips shall not speak falsehoods.
I, for one, enjoy Roman numerals.
Oh yeah big guy? How many letters you need to write 3999?
Isn’t it MMMIM? Only one extra character
subtraction rule only allows a smaller numeral to be placed before a larger one if it is one of the following combinations: IV, IX, XL, XC, CD, or CM. The numeral ‘i’ ((1)) can only be placed before a ‘V’ ((5)) or an ‘X’ ((10)).
That rule wasn’t always hard and fast, just as IV or XL were sometimes written as IIII or XXXX respectively. The XVIII Legion was occasionally termed XIIX, which should have been right out, but it worked well enough to inscribe in stone on a memorial and use on official calendars.
The fundamental requirement was that People would look at it and understand what it is saying. There was no “Office of Numeral Oversight” correcting people. The norms that we may learn about are descriptive of the majority, but not strictly prescriptive for all the cases.
If it follows the basic additive/subtractive pattern, it’s good enough.
If you want to be a prick, write IMMMM
Maybe the symmetry made people more likely to overlook the conventional way of writing things. Still no hard rule, but more leniency if it looks cool.
Rool of cool!
That’s not the correct spelling, but it’s the cool one
I came up with MMMCMXCIX, but your one seems better.
IX
Many machines on IX, new machines.
Excellent quote.
I love doing 3999+1 in Roman numerals in my head without converting first.
That’s easy: many.
pretty sure it’s lots
Get out.
one for one? what does that mean?
It’s a non-poly dating ad.
groan
Oh Facebook must be lighting up with frothing boomers right now
mostly AI content too.
I hate that when i see memes like this all i can think is “its only a matter of time before stupid people share this with other stupid people unironically”
It probably happened before you even saw the meme.
Fox News is gonna run a piece on how we must eliminate Arabic numerals from American society. Your family will be talking about this travesty at Thanksgiving.
Haha let’s count like Rome people CCEXIVII - ??? = !!!
I shared it ironically with a group of people that won’t understand it. I proceed to watch silently as they raise their cortisol levels.
Roman! Cousin, let’s go bowling!
literally in the middle of a fucking mission
A new Home maker class featuring falafel and hummus as side dishes is now mandatory to graduate High school.
Fuck, I would have enjoyed that course.
Homemade falafel and hummus is so much better than store bought and so easy. I just gotta perfect a pita recipe.
I love falafel and hummus. I only found out a couple years ago but I’ve spent many a meal making up for lost time ♥️
Home made babaganoush is also amazing.
Slice a large eggplant in half, place face down in a glass baking pan. Add a few tablespoons oil, shake salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder lightly on top. Cover with lid and bake at 375° for an hour. Till skin is shriveled and darker. You can also uncover near the end and roast it more if you like.
Let it cool. Take each half and scrape the loose insides into a food processor, it should just all slide off the skin. Add a few cloves of garlic, some lemon juice (maybe 3 tableapoons or adjust to your tastes), then toast a layer of sesame seeds in a smaller pan 6 or 9 inch sized with a bit of oil. Stir them often because they will burn if the heat gets to them too long. Add to the food processor and blend till garlic and seeds are chopped fine. Salt and pepper to taste.
Whew, that sounds delicious!!! Def gotta try making some 😋
these people are probably going to confuse hummus with humus.
That reminds me of the old joke:
Customer: This coffee tastes like mud!
Waiter: I’m sorry sir, it was ground this morning.
I’m not a fan of hummus, but I’d be down for that class anyways. Teach kids some delicious food, particularly foreign in origin, to show them the rest of the world has nice things too!
Until they pull a Britain and invade countries for their food…
And still somehow miraculously forget they can actually use the spices they invaded for in the first place…
Gods forbid we teach kids useful life skills…
You mean Tent Makers? /s Not on my watch
“Children will be thaught how to make shawarma at home.”
I This is Roman discrimination II Half of MAGA doesnt know what an Arabic numeral is. III Reeeeeeeeeee IV Roman numerals are superior

One syllable per character. Coolest language ever. :D
(Also hardest characters to remember)
one syllable per character
一 is pronounced “i-chi”
Oh lol, I automatically assumed Chinese because that is the language I know…
(But I mean… the Kanji is the same as the 漢字 (HanZi), its not always obvious which language is being referred to lol)
ohhh in chinese yeah. yi ar san right? :3
“Half” of MAGA? 😂
It’s more than half
I don’t know man, something about his damn smile is so funny to me. It’s so smug, he’s always smiling like he just absolutely knows he’s making some very rich assholes panic and I love everything about it.
I highly doubt they’re panicking. If they’re even aware they’re perturbed at best.
Fair, panicking was probably a bit of a stretch there. But I like how they at least burn a bunch of money on his political opponents
This post came directly from Al Jazeer which references Al Gebra.
I learned Arabic numerals in 1978 in preschool in Wyoming, and I never became a terrorist.
According to a study, almost III out of V of those polled opposed this.
Well to be fair, the republicunts would prefer kids not learn any numbers because only stupid people vote for Cons…
