Of course they need to know the language of mathematics.
I was just responding to your statement that you "struggle to see how someone who did rote addition and subtraction could "fail to grasp negative numbers"? " My whole class of high achieving students managed to fail to grasp the concept, and that was compounded…

In 8th grade, my class was being taught the concept of negative numbers by a teacher who could not describe it to the students in any way that remotely made sense to them. I asked him if I could give it a shot, and then went to the head of the class and drew a diagram of skyscraper building with subterranean levels.…

Girl, they just took the queens to the garbage dump where the leftover Kardashian Kollection klothes were taken after Sears dropped their line.

I CTRL+F'd Chris Matthews so hard when I finished reading the article. I'd upvote your whole comment ten thousand times if I could.

God, I love when AVClubbers bring the T from Reddit and Twitter, so I can continue to avoid them otherwise. Bless you all for your service.

You are clearly projecting a whole lot of personal shit onto a fictional character whose only tenuous connection to you is that the character comes from the NY/NJ area. I think I'll bow out of this discussion now, have a good day.

Now you're moving the goal posts. You said it was ok to judge people who are "known to hang out with" creeps or criminals. Does Amy go around and endorse and support any shitty behavior of the guys she fucked in the past? Please point it out to me if I'm wrong, but I don't recall her defending them as stellar human…

Sister Helen Prejean hung out with murderers. Mother Theresa hung out with lepers. Jesus hung out with prostitutes.

Everything about this reply is gross. "hold yourself with discretion," "Not consort with the lowly ones," "He can't treasure what may have been taken advantage of"? GTFOH with that nonsense.

From your fingers to FSM's noodly ears

If he prints on the edible paper they put ON the cakes, he can cheat like a motherfucker. More expensive than cheap copy paper but less likely to cause gastrointestinal distress. Not as tasty as the full cake but cheaper and he's probably making enough off advertising to pay for the supplies at least.

I loved that movie so much.

No, that's a separate female startup owner that also decided to emulate corporate America's worst sins.

They're always given a list with several specific themes they'll need to prepare for the challenges or runways. The producers might have asked them to give a heads up on which look they were going for, in order to avoid repeats.

I was kinda hating the whole look until I rewatched and realized she had huge armpit hair. Something about that extra took it so far there that I laughed out loud and gave in.

I hadn't heard about that desk thing, that's very cool.

I vote brown noise, South Park-style.

I hate O'Donnell (and Matthews even more), but I like Hayes because he brings RM's hard research in a more direct package. I prefer Rachel's avoidance of panels, but Hayes does good work. I wish Reid could take over for one of those other two douchenozzles, but the influx of former Fox blondes isn't making me think…

I wasn't shocked at the lengthy build-up to the reveal. She does this meandering thing every night - or at least she used to; I wouldn't know if she'd managed to get out of the habit recently, because I dropped my daily cable news habit altogether since the election. Nothing about last night's broadcast struck me as…

I came here to find my fellow band nerds high-fiving his roll step. I knew the AVC would not disappoint. :)
