  1. Line 1 and 2 are fine, but by line 3 you are stating that 0 = 0. The problem only arises because you try to divide by that 0 at the end. (0 characters).

    Anyway, here is one that a colleague has been bugging me with for a while:

    I haven't done any non-chemistry-related mathematics (ie, anything beyond arithmetic) for quite some time, so I can't show that this is fallacious even though I know that the perimeter is truly getting shorter with successive "folds". Stupider with age concept.

  2. @ Baeyer - But Murakami's trick is more interesting and beautiful than Palahniuk's....

    I was hoping that I wouldn't have to explicitly state that I consider Murakami a much greater writer than Palahniuk. Although, Invisible Monsters and Fight Club are both pretty amazing in their own way. The rest of his stuff is pretty crappy. Actually, Non-Fiction was kinda interesting, too.

    Currently reading this when I'm not reading Infinite Jest:

    Someone please tell me how to feel about Baudrillard. I feel like his ideas are interesting but he is terrible at elucidating them.
