The saying is "money is the root of all evil". Where did "problems" come from?

With your substitution will result women=evil which is at least as good.

This is the version that doesn't get banned. Telling the truth and using evil is to much truth to handle.

too* ;)

The saying actually is "love of money is the root of all evil". Money itself is just a tool.

My guess is that they censored it by substituting it with "problems" so they didn't end up with "Women = Evil" which is definitely worse

Should have used “More money is more problems”

Wouldn't time and money be: time + money ?
[–][deleted] 14 points15 points16 points 7 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link
From a physicist's point of view, that would be wrong as you can't add 2 variables which differ in nature/units.

This is some big brained stuff

Isn’t that problem resolved through the philosophical assumption that time = money ?
[–][deleted] 0 points1 point2 points 7 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Unlike time, money has a physical form therefore they are not of the same entity. You can establish an equivalence relation to make up for the units with a constant "J", say (time=J x money). However from an Economist's point of view, each entity is broken down to its value and so you could make the philosophical assumption that time = money. In this case, choosing this point of view would make more sense. I'm just slightly sperging over some fundamentals rules of my domain haha.

You are right, but A x B can equal A + B when A = 2 and B = 2. Given this example, I would approach the above equation the same way.

Good point!
[–]easeanddelight10 points11 points12 points 7 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Genius.

...math back in the day would have been more interesting with real-world examples like this. ...of course a teacher using this now? Firing and revocation of his licence.

You can't square one side of an equal sign without squaring the other side.
Therefor: Woman2 = Problems
Where did the math go wrong? All I'm seeing is the replacement of time with money (since the values are equal), which is being converted to simplify.

Brilliant. Have saved this for future reference.

Everyday mans on the block. Smoke trees.
[–]OniiChanStopNotThere1 point2 points3 points 7 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
This isn't wrong.
[–]Harrybud070 points1 point2 points 7 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
you call that quick math?
The Root cause of your problem is you are seeking for a women. End of story!
[–]boytjie0 points1 point2 points 7 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
I think you’re overanalysing. Women = problems is intuitive and doesn’t need an equation to prove what should be obvious. Now if we had the means to hardwire this truth into male DNA...
Does this come in poster size?
[–][deleted]0 points1 point2 points 7 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
The A+ though lol
[–]hkl83240 points1 point2 points 7 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
I dont think you need prove.
