Math is my downfall. Here are 10 reasons I don't need math:
- I am going to be a famous writer one day. I'll be able to hire people to do the math for me.
- I am going to be a guidance counselor one day. I need to practice the answer not being set in stone. Math answers are set in stone.
- I am a musician; the only math I will ever need is the ability to count.
- Most colleges only require two or three credits of math, but four English credits. That means that colleges care more about English than math.
- Math cannot keep my attention. If it cannot in any way be made interesting (which, so far, it has not), then clearly it is not worth my time.
- The ability to do math without assistance has become obsolete. I do not feel the need to concern myself with obsolete abilities. Machines have been invented to add/subtract/multiply/divide for me.
- Math is not able to be applied to the real world. Teachers can only ever come up with a few examples of "real-world math" because only a few examples exist.
- Math makes me want to pull my hair out. Clearly, that is not healthy, which means that math is not healthy, which means I don't need to do it.
- No one needs a constant reminder that little mistakes have a huge impact. In math, even the itsy-bitsiest little error will throw the problem off.
- I only like cool teachers. I have never met a cool math teacher. English teachers and band directors are the only cool people on the planet.
That, children, is my post for the night.
Oh, and one more thing. 2+2=Fish.
