36 out of 30 smokers want to quit smoking, 5 out 4 people do not understand fractions...

I cant remember the last time I had so much trouble holding back my laughter, I could not stop laughing. It all started on page one hundred and ninety four...Question six...section A. Shaun and I were working on this page together and we had both gotten to this question. The question stated that 5 out of six smokers want to quit smoking, it then asked, if there were 30 smokers how many would want to quit. Now I got twenty-five out of thirty, which as you may have figure out is the correct answer. Now here is where it gets funny, Shaun was convinced his answering was right and mine was wrong. Now in case you are just tuning in here is the score, I have come to the conclusion 25 out of 30 smokers want to quit smoking, now Shaun in his infinite wisdom has decided that 36 out of 30 smokers want to quit smoking. If you are smart, you will see that is impossible if there are 30 people 36 of them cannot think a certain thing its quite impossible. It took quite a but of discussion and reasoning to show Shaun the error in his ways. After this though we both couldnt stop laughing, we just kept repeating, 36 out of 30 smokers want to quit. It was slowly killing us, so we decided we needed more to laugh at. Based off that I came up with, 5 out of 4 kids are failing math. I proceeded laughing mostly non-stop until the end of TAG, it was all in all pretty sad.

On a completely unrelated note, I tried out "The Punisher". Its a pretty cool PC Game, the perspective is a bit weird and hard to get used to but all in all its a pretty cool game. The opening cut scene has to be one of my all time favorites, The Punisher kills 5 or 6 guys in probably 20 seconds using there own weapons after killing the gang leader with a shotgun from point blank. It was REALLY cool. Maybe if you can find a demo of this game check it out. Hmm I think that is all for the day, ya I think it is. Over and out.

Comic book character of the day: The Punisher
