Your Age By Creepy Math
« on: April 09, 2007, 09:44 AM »

It takes less than a minute. Work this out as you read. Be sure you don't read the bottom until you've worked it out! This is not one of those waste of time things, it's fun.

1. First of all, pick the number of times a week that you would like to have chocolate (more than once but less than 10).

2. Multiply this number by 2 (Just to be bold)

3. Add 5 (for Sunday).

4. Multiply it by 50 I'll wait while you get the calculator,

5. If you have already had your birthday this year add 1755,
If you haven't, add 1754,

6. Now subtract the four digit year that you were born,

You should have a three digit number.

The first digit of this was your original number (i.e., how many times you want to have chocolate each week).

The next two numbers are,

YOUR AGE!!! (OH YES, IT IS!!!)

THIS IS THE ONLY YEAR (2005) IT WILL EVER WORK, SO SPREAD IT AROUND WHILE IT LASTS.

Of course it won't work in 2007. If you follow the instructions, using the numbers given, you should get your age at this time in 2005. There are three ways that you won't get your age in 2005

1. If you choose a non-integer (decimal) amount of times to eat chocolate e.g. 2.5
2. If you were older than 100 in 2005
3. If you are retarded and can not do basic math

This is not creepy. When it asked for the birthyear I already knew what was going on.
Think about it: Let x be the no of times you want chocolate where 1<x<=10, and y be your birth year

For those whose birthdays have passed, the formula becomes
(2X+5)*50 + 1755 - y
= 100x + 250 +1755 -y
= 100x + (250 + 1755) - y
= 100x + (2005 - y)   


for those whose birthdays have yet to come, the formula becomes
(2x +5)* 50 + 1754 -y
=100x + (250 + 1754) -y
= 100x + (2004-y)

Note: Since y is your birth year, then (2005 -y) will be your age in 2005 if you were born in '05, and your bithdate has passed.  Otherwise, (2004 -y) will be your age. And note that 100x can only be either 200, 300, 400,, , 900, because of the restrictions on x. That means you are adding your birthday to a number divisible by 100, hence the first digit will be whatever x number you chose, and the last two digits will be your 2005 age.


Of course this whole thing can be modified for the year 2007, but you have to use 1757 if your birthday has passed already, and 1756 if you have yet to celebrate your birthday.

Sorry to piss on the parade.
