Howdy! Having seen this passed around the last few days, I'm wondering: does this math work for you? I didn't write it. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
YOUR AGE BY CHOCOLATE MATH
This is pretty neat.
DON'T CHEAT BY SCROLLING DOWN FIRST! It takes less than a minute Work this out as you read ... Be sure you don't read the bottom until you've worked it out! This is not one of those waste of time things (oh? r/s), it's fun.
- First of all, pick the number of times a week that you would like to have chocolate (more than once but less than 10)
- Multiply this number by 2 (just to be bold)
- Add 5
- Multiply it by 50 -- I'll wait while you get the calculator
- If you have already had your birthday this year add 1756 .... If you haven't, add 1755.
- Now subtract the four digit year that you were born.
You should have a three digit number
The first digit of this was your original number (i.e., how many times you want to have chocolate each week).
The next two numbers are
*You gotta love this one!!!! Chocolate doesn't lie! *YOUR AGE! (Oh YES, it is!!!!!)
THIS IS THE ONLY YEAR (2006) IT WILL EVER WORK, SO SPREAD IT AROUND WHILE IT LASTS. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Did it work for you? Is this the only year it would work? I dunno', but it worked for me. Now pass me that chocolate bunny!
