I hate Math even though it is essential in life

You take that back.

QFT you wouldn't be able to write this post w/o it.

so mucho lulz

Yes, you can get by with knowing minimal math. True.
But much of what you take for granted in terms of technology, bridges not freaken collapsing, yadda yadda yadda is a result of math. The kinda math that youthink is pointless.

I understand this but it is pointless to some majors in colleges. Unless you major in business, engineering, math and a few other majors therereally is no need for universities to require advanced math

Math is just the complete understanding of the basic math.

I always hated those ignorant kids in the class who always stuck our their heads to say "why do I need to know this? they will not change my life"

So its safe to assume you liked EVERY OTHER subject you have ever had to take then?

 

[de phx jose]

Not pointless if you wanna decrease your ignorance in the field of Mathematics, it's needed real often anyway. LAZY people are pointless

 

[ninjallamafromhell]

Pretty much everyday I use:

QFTMFT.... Its knowledge.. and not only that, Its essential knowledge of a subject that permeates every single aspect of human interactions with the naturalworld...
I've had problems with it, I'm not gonna lie..
But one of the most

feelings is solving some long and difficultequation or problem...
Math is def appreciated.

[albooboo5]

without math you wouldn't even be able to make this post



EDIT: apparently some other people have stated this already. without math you wouldn't have music or architecture. how fun would that be sitting in adelapitated dwelling with no tunes?

 

[toast1985]

Math is ubiquitous.

...Math is second to His Almighty. Quite honestly, to some folks, math is held in higher regards then God.

 

[aircommandermarsfiend]

No...

Although, Algebra II was hell for me...

Out of all the levels of math that I've taken, that has been the most frustrating!

(I HATE Math lol...it's not pointless though)

 

[jaw knee c]

??? math is basis of life today. internet, computers, engineers, science, etc is all based off math.

Maybe I did not like all other subjects, but i do have an appreciation that I am learning something new and different and possibly difficult.


I'm talking to the ignorant kid in math class.

[kb8sandiego]
