Little extreme don't you think

where did the other 2 minutes and 55.9 seconds go?

They get together every four years for a party in late February.

Don't know why I was thumbed down, but I don't really care.

mad shiet, i dont have school today and im still learning :)

Dafuq? Well how does that work since we still keep track of days by 24 hours?

Each day is just under 24 hours.
We round up to 24 hours.
By doing this, a whole year is technically 365.25 days.
We then add a day to a year every four years to make up for the .25 days. (.25 x 4 = 1)
Problem = solved.

Wait, wouldn't we want to subtract a day every four years to make up for the extra .25 days a year?

That is the same thing i thought when i read this thread but no.
Since we round up to 24 hours there is a small amount of time added.
Since there would be 365 days in a year if we did not round up, there is now an extra .25 days on an entire year, so now, me must add 1 day every four years.

Or, think about it this way, we round up to 24 hours making part of tomorrow at the end of today, by doing this it eventually adds up to 6 hours of tomorrow at the end of today ,by December. That may seem like it would mess up time a lot but with daylight savings times it kinda helps. So, now you have 6 hours of a day all messed up, so you take a .25 of a day and you stick it on the end of the year so the entire decade doesn't shift 2-3 days!

Oh shit, now I get it. They don't really add a day, they just add it on the calender, and that day IS the .25 days each year. I thought you meant they literally counted an extra day along with the .25 each year to add 2 days every 4 years. Still, wouldn't that mess with the seasonal year a little bit?

Technically that is right, because our days are just under 24 hours. That's why we have a leap year every four years that adds an extra day to account for the difference. But oh well

im too dumb for this shiet.

You're a faggot.

Christ in a sidecar, don't home school your children.

i laughed at the fact that this got so many thumbs down and he was trying to be nice xD

I gave you a thumb. Maybe you can get above -100.

Did....did you really just do this to me? I thought we had something!!!
Why would you do that after all the nie things we had!
Remember that time i made a nice comment... and you said ''I gave you a thumb. Maybe you can get above -100'' ? Those were the times....
But now it seems like all those good times didn't ment anything!
You.... you know what... YOU ARE DEAD TO ME NOW!!!!

Hmmm.....hmmmm........*nice.

A grammar mistake doesn't change anything to the fact that you ruined everything we had!

re... rea... really...?

I lied.

W-WHAT????

i believe homework can be beneficial if you have trouble with the subject, but if you know the subject like the back of your hand i see no point, so if i were i teacher, i wouldn't make homework necessary, i would hand it out to those who want it and it would be worth 1 or 2 points of extra credit on the next test/quiz

my science teacher last year never gave us homework because "it would only be worth 5
% anyway so you wouldn't do it and then it wouldn't help" he was pretty awesome

And don't even get me started on summer work. I guess working my ass off for 180 days isn't enough, I guess I need to waste my summer with homework too.

Well with the school knowing you're doing your homework, they can be SURE that you know your shit. People can totally forget shit if it wasn't for homework.

i believe that people who are not doing good in school should get homework like if you are getting a "C" or below but if you are getting an "A" or a "B" i think you get the material good enough already you dont even need homework

But then since all the smart kids stopped getting work they'll turn dumb.

How did this only have 4 thumbs?

Wreck 'Em Tech!!!

sorry about the 31 days a week... wasn't feelin' the "flow" without it

31 hours in one day..?

Yes.

Damit anon, how do you do it.

If you know what I mean

I know you guys don't give a shit, but in the 9th grade I scored the 12th best English score on that final test. My parents were military so I took a "Terra Nova" test. Only real academic success I achieved except for not failing a grade.

Um... Not sure what that has to do with much... But, I used to be a merit award student for grades 9 and 10. Meaning I didn't get a grade below 75% all year. Then my dad died, I stopped giving a fuck, and my average dropped to 45%!!! By the end of high school my mom was just so damned proud that i'd graduated at all. Moral of the story is, grades don't matter much. Despite my low grades I'm still going to a pretty kickass college for chemistry. The only thing that matters is that you're happy, and do it at your own pace.

31 hours a day?

this is the internet good sir
tis not a place for logic
<pic related

oh god lolz

in the year 10 exams i failed 5 out of subjects, got only 3% in maths
but my 6th subject HUMANITIES i got 98%
fuck logic

>failed 5 out of subjects

I am very confused

sorry, im talking about exams

I have 5 classes a day, each class gives you an average of 1 hour of homework, I work my ass off to get it done in an average of 4. That and I maintain at least an A- Average.

Basically, go fuck yourself.

I always felt these statistics were for pre college students and people majoring in art...

Try going to school in some country in Asia, takes you more than 4 hours.
