Once upon a day I was sitting in math class - not paying attention - when I was hit with a brilliant idea: I should sell my math notes. Not because they're particularly helpful or I am especially bright, but because they are funny. I continued thinking about it, and realized I would have a hard time selling them to students in the class [who already take their own actually helpful notes] because our teacher posts all of his power points online. Then I thought maybe I could just compile them into some sort of book and trick the general public into buying my notes, but I realized that no one in their right mind would want to read a book about differential equations that will teach them absolutely nothing about differential equations.
I started to get a little discouraged. My poor notes were just left sitting in a binder and no one (except myself) got to enjoy them. Enter older sister whose ideas I enjoy stealing. You see, it was her original idea to write the blog, and following the proof below, you can see that it is a good idea.
Proof:
Assume x is a student of some math class.
[a) always start by assuming something b) I am ‘x’. You may refer to me as Agent X. Or 0010. Or just X, it’s up to you]
⇒ x will take notes
[arrow thing means “this implies”... don’t you feel smarter already?]
⇒ x’s notes will be boring
⇒ x will get sick of writing boring notes
⇒ x will start writing funny notes
⇒ x will want to share said notes with anyone who gets trapped into reading them before they realize they are reading about math
⇒ x’s sister will suggest a blog
blog = trapping method for unsuspecting victims (by definition of blog)
[it’s always a good idea to throw in some definitions as justification for your proof]
⇒ blog = good idea
And that is how this blog came to be.
