To be honest I'm quite a natural on math, given a problem you only need to explain it once and it's memorized and can be used in future. I pretty much was pushed by my elementary school teacher who gave me equalations from higher grades which I solved with ease actually.

 

Also could you please explain you being "in calc at age 14"? I am not from US so I can't tell what you mean by that really, sry :/

I'm 14 years old and currently taking calculus, in the u.s. calculus is a course for seniors in high school, generally 17-18 years old

As for the biology teacher there might be around 3 students (out of 20) who are actually participating in class the rest is simply sitting there not knowing anything. Also didn't I mention he asks about trivial questions that are impossible for me to answer? Like things that we haven't discussed in class. And didn't you read the part about how he talks to his male students? I am very silent in school but I pay very good attention on what is talked about. I am certain that my biology teacher is a sexist, maybe even perverted, I can't tell.

 

Well for math the problem is, I don't use solutions that include memorizing but rather logical thinking to get to a result easier than the teacher requires. The problem is: All my answers are correct yet I only get around 20% of the points. I have been the best math student in class for 10 years and I had many different teachers, all of them agreed that I was special yet that teacher is simply ignorant and not able to teach properly. (He does stuff differently than the book, that's the main problem although the book is a lot easier to understand plus his explanations have contradictions several times).

 

Also: If you get so touchy on math and science, I wouldn't mind you teaching me about it if you feel offended, I am certain you will understand that I am capable of judging my current teachers.

alright, this makes a bit more sense now, if the math teacher is directly contradicting the book, then its different than just overcomplicating a simple problem solely for the sake of understanding a complex concept. As for the logic versus memorization thing: I'm consistently the highest math student at each school I go to, I max out standardized tests and im in calc at age 14. You need to memorize concepts that can be used to logically analyze problems. If no memorization was required to be able to apply logical analysis, we would all be at a college seniorr level of math at birth.

 

 

Several actually but I will only refer to the ones I currently have.   My current math teacher is completely terrible at teaching, I was getting A grades all the time, now since I got this teacher everything he says is just plain confusing, using complex methods that are just plain useless when you can get to the solution a lot easier... my grade actually dropped to C and no, it is not me who is bad, I've had 5 different math teachers so far and never ever has anything like this happened before. Not to mention that nobody in class understands anything he does...   Second one would be my biology teacher. I am quite the silent type in school, I only really answer when I'm asked something. The problem here is he asks me about trivia I couldn't possibly know about and if I don't get the answer right he's lecturing me. He pretty much does it to every male student in class but especially on me because I refuse to participate in class, so... well he is lecturing the boys whenever they get a difficult question wrong while asking girls easier questions (and they screw them up as well, although they are actually possible to answer) and doesn't say a thing about it, instead asks one of the guys and if the answer is right, he's like: Oh, so you are not as stupid as you look. I mean seriously? I really lost faith in education nowadays, I prefer learning stuff at home via internet than school recently...

 HOOOOOOOLD UP. I have a few points to contest in your argument. Firstly, while I may not know the whole story your bio teacher may just be asking questions to try to get everybody involved, or intentionally asking tricky problems so that the people who mess up easier problems don't feel embarrassed. This could be wrong I suppose, he could just be a genuinely mean person, but as I haven't met him personally I can't make an assumption either way. On the subject of math: of course there are usually multiple ways to arrive at a solution. Sometimes the one assigned isn't the easiest. Take the equation f(x)=x^2. Say you need to find its derivative. Sure, you could very easily just write f'(x)=2x because it's a simple function that most people have memorized. but say you eventually run into a more complex problem requiring the use of the power rule. You won't be able to solve it, because you wrote 2x down purely from memory instead of writing down the whole 2x^(2-1) = 2x^1 = 2x thing. Of course, if you have an amazing memory you don't need much practice, but it still helps to get some practice. Granted, there is also the problem that some teachers will teach methods that aren't necessarily "wrong" but that aren't as efficient when teaching certain concepts. Think Chinese multiplication. Sure, the method works, but it's slow and provides no understanding of number theory, which can harm people later. To sum up, your teachers don't seem as bad as you make them out to be, unless you provide more information to prove otherwise. Thus ends my rant, sorry i get so touchy about math and science.

 

 

To all the people complaining about physics teachers: I hear the same thing from the physics students at my school. I'm curious as to how it will play out next year in terms of what courses they are taking and whatnot.

cannot read for long periods of time and still retain info

not as good with computers as I'd like to be

memories of stupid things I've done just stick there like glue, gets really annoying

Sorry to burst your bubble but if you include Equestria Girls it is impossible to watch every single episode in 24 hours. If you don't, it's still impossible because you need time to sleep and eat.

I've gone days without sleep, its not very difficult. As for food: eat while watching. cereal without milk is a good option, pretty much any type of crackers or chips or "junk food", etc. If you have somebody else in the house you can arrange for them to deliver hot meals to wherever it is you are doing the challenge, and as for liquids: either bring lots of water bottles before hand or arrange for them to be provided with the meals, presuming you have the option of the assistance of another person.

AAAAUGH, goddamn players who keep going scout in MvM WHEN WE DON'T NEED ONE. I'm sorry, I'm sick and tired of running into this. I really think that this game needs class limits as a default option, people are not paying attention to the class roster when they first join the server and don't consider the situation the team is in. Stacking all those crappy classes leads to nothing but disaster.

 

Words of advice: don't be an ass to your fellow players unless they refuse to listen to reason. Don't take so long to hit F4 when everyone else has. Stick to the class you start as and only switch to a class that could improve the situation in the next wave (eg. one guy could switch to spy on waves with Steel Gauntlets to make them easier to manage). Don't force anyone to change their strategy unless they're interfering with their teammates (eg. building next to other engies, screwing around away from the battlefield). Help them learn from their mistakes, don't be a complete know-it-all and boss people around. If they can't get the hint, then votekick them out.

 

If you're gonna be a gigantic douchebag, do it with other people who are willing to play along, aka PEOPLE ON YOUR FRIENDS LIST.

 

Oh, and one more thing: never roleplay in a public server. People are there to kill bots and enjoy themselves, not get roped into a "story" and have one player refuse to play properly unless the others advance it. Somebody thought it was a good idea to RP as Fluttershy and kept bugging us with constant "Do you love me? Do you love me?" and being completely useless. Drove us nuts and got us nowhere. There's a place for roleplaying, and that's a forum. Not a horde mode in an action game. Unless, again, it's with people you know.

 

I'm sorry, but I hate people that decide to get in the way for no good reason.

calm down man, you're getting overly worked up over a simple game. Also, I've done a decent  amount of the mann up tours and if there's one mistake you can make its underestimating the usefulness of a scout. Also, everybody in mvm pubs will be assholes, you need to start an mvm team, or play on expert mann up tours where the players are generally a bit more experienced.

can't be arsed to read if this has been stated yet or not, but I'm pretty sure this is a question with a rather simple answer. You see, if people choose a pegasus pony as their OC, it still gives their OC the ability to fly, but allows them to refer to unicorn and alicorn OCs as "OP".

nao hold up it sez u design wallpapers, avatars and signatures so why are you requesting a wallpaper? I can do one but honestly you can probably do far better if your sig is anything to go by.

can I have the SVG for the pony or just the PNG? I think this would be easier with an svg. Anyways I can probably help ya out with this if I can get ahold of an SVG file.

the grey bar at the top of the screen is too thick and makes me cry. I don't like it. GO AWAY GREY BAR NOBODY LIKES YOU I LIKE MY GREYSCALE COLORS SLIGHTLY WARM OR COOL SHIFTED.

 

 

needing extra chromosomes for more flexible appendages

 The number of chromosomes does not actually have any effect on the complexity of a creature. For example, I believe potatoes have 48 chromosomes. Do you mean to tell me that an alicorn is only 5/6ths as complex as a potato? Honestly it's most likely 23 because of the interspecial sex present in most clopfics.

I honestly have no opinion either way but since I like arguing, here ya go.

 

scratch that, I have one opinion. I know what to watch youtube, don't bring me to the what to watch page.

 

JUST GO STRAIGHT TO MY SUBSCRIPTION FEED

 

sheesh

 

anyways

 

videos buffer all the time, the site is becoming too complicated, and ads are ruining even further

I think this is just people trying to find something to complain about. People would probably like to say MLP is getting worse because of Twilicorn (which is still a term I dislike since "corn" constitutes the third syllable in both "unicorn" and "alicorn"), but that dead horse has been beaten to a pulp. If videos are buffering too much it's because your internet is slow, the site, at least from what I can see, hasn't been taking any more time to buffer videos of the same resolution and length given the same internet speed on the recieving end. I think this particular point is just videos getting longer and higher res while your internet connection stays the same (or an outdated NIC in your PC). The site has actually been made less complicated by the layout changes in my opinion, and anybody who had never seen youtube before would most likely have an easier time learning the various functions of youtube in the newer layouts rather than older ones. I think this is more likely a complaint that people have already learned the old layouts and now have to relearn the new ones, but the new ones are similar enough that that's not really a valid argument either. Advertisements aren't really that bad, and keep in mind that on most videos there are skip buttons for the ads. Not to mention, advertisements are keeping some really good videos from getting removed based on copyrighted content. if copyrighted content is found in a video, I believe the copyright owner can decide whether to have the video removed or monetize it, meaning they would receive the ad view money from the video rather than the original uploader. Also, has anybody even seen mobile youtube recently? It's been far improved since its first release and is now far more smartphone friendly. In fact, I think most of the full youtube layout changes are to keep regular youtube in sync control, function, feature, and design wise with the phone version, therefore making the process of using youtube more streamlined.

 

 

As for content, Youtube's kinda taken an unfortunate turn.

Most of what you said in this particular paragraph in my opinion refers to a factor of youtube that can't become truly worse unless Youtube staff start modifying views on videos to make certain channels artificially popular, which I haven't seen yet. Frankly if a channel becomes popular, it means a lot of people want to watch that channel's videos, meaning overall it can't really harm Youtube since channels with no reason to be popular in the eye of the majority will no longer maintain popularity. I honestly think this system is still about the best way of going about things, except for maybe having a way of submitting videos without releasing your channel name so that high subscriber channels and low subscriber channels have an equal chance, then being able to release the channel name at a later date. 

 

 

Youtube has been getting worse and worse quality and community comments went from "This video was very disturbing" to "DAFUQ DID I GUZT WACHED" and videos went from Good qualitiy videos to rick rolls

Youtube has always been like that, you merely hadn't been to that part of youtube yet. If you think rick rolls are becoming MORE common in 2013... they aren't. They've been on decline for a while from what I can see. 

Actually, he's not an alligator. By the shape of his head and snout, he's a crocodile. Specifically, he's a Osteolaemus tetraspis, or Dwarf Crocodile. Alligators have a lot blunter snout and a flatter, wider head.

 

As such, Pinkie's got a small problem. Crocodiles (and alligators for that matter) constantly replace their teeth as they grow. They don't follow the pattern we're all used to of having 'baby' and 'adult' teeth, and constantly loose and grow new teeth throughout their life. There's no guarantee that Gummy is going to be toothless forever, and crocodilians are at least as long-lived as humans.

 

That aside, given the level of intelligence all the animals in MLP:FiM show, there's no reason Gummy *can't* be kept as a pet even when he reaches full growth of 5-6 feet long. Although Gummy does seem a bit dafter than the other pets, so he may not be quite so reasonable later.

you speak of this as if gummy had his teeth removed by a pony, which may or may not be the case as I can't be arsed to rewatch all the episodes with gummy in them, but it could be a genetic abnormality that makes his jaws or gums not suitable to carry teeth and as they grow in they may just continue to fall out.

Alright and how do I get vectors sorry if I kinda go off asking dumb questions i'm just trying to learn as much as possible to be able to start submitting my own fanart

vectors are just another visual medium similar to a png or jpeg, but with infinite resolution. you can find some pony ones on deviant art at http://mlp-vectorclub.deviantart.com/

I'd recommend inkscape as the program to use and perhaps trying to edit already existing vectors before attempting to draw your own.

#seemslegit

did you come across the girl recently, or a while ago?

 

Anyways personally I find no preference with different accents because I've grown accustom to a great deal of the common ones, and as such I can recognize different accents, but generally my idea of the accent has more to do with the last person I met with that accent than the accent itself.

 

 

Magic, Pinkie Pie, advanture, Pinkie Pie, the closer bond of friendship and love

You forgot Pinkie Pie.

 

 

I would just want to visit. If we lived WITH the ponies, we couldn't watch the show anymore or collect the merchandise.

Actually you would get a front row seat to a 3D uncut version of each episode.

 

 

 

Personally, I don't think any of us has enough information to really determine whether we want to wake up as a pony in Equestria. The show only follows the more interesting parts of the lives of a relative handful of ponies. We don't see the really bad or boring things happening, because that doesn't make good fantasy television. There is no guarantee that your potential life in Equestria would be anything like the characters experience in the show, and even then, you have an incomplete picture, since the show does not even show the full lives of its few characters.

On a related note, these "thought experiments" so to speak are generally ambiguous and leave a few crucial details out, for example whether or not your family gets teleported too, your talent stays the same, you even stay the same gender, etc.

generally I have my headphones on for most of the time I'm awake during the summer, with my PC volume set to 2 percent and program volumes set around 30 to 50 percent. HOWEVER, it is important to note that I am using 32 ohm impedance headphones with 104db sensitivity, which is a HUGE factor people seem to be overlooking here. the actual volume of the sound in decibels has to do not only with how loud you have your audio devices set but also what types of devices they are and the sensitivity, efficiency and impedance of your headphones. another major factor is the type of audio output device, be it a single speaker, surround speaker, professional studio monitors, circumaural headphones, supraaural headphones, earbuds, or any other types I missed. Lastly you have to take into account any amplification, specifically when dealing with low sensitivity devices.

I'd like to live on Earth, because you know. Water, and oxygen. And things. Like economy and fellow human beings. And technology, doctors, all that good stuff.

I would like to live no Earth because Verizon charges extra for interplanetary calls. Also because I like having interwebz.

if you downloaded it as a torrent or something without buying a legitimate copy, then you won't be able to play on any game servers aside from LAN servers, I.E. hamachi servers. Just google hamachi minecraft server list and find any server you want to join. In order to join hamachi servers you need Hamachi and you must join a network containing the host computer for the server, then connect through the hamachi ipv4 for the host computer.
