    Isn't it amazing how much mathematics and philosophy overlap? Is this not best exemplified by how my astrophysics major needed only a single additional class for a math minor, and only two more classes for a philosophy minor?

    Why did my friend laugh so hard after criticizing a philosophy major, and I reminded her that maybe with a philosophy major the guy will be able to live well with less money? Isn't that true!?:D

    Didn't the lead bouncer from the movie "Road House" have a philosophy degree while kicking butt of the bad guys?

    Whoa...did my question actually post within a single second of clicking "Post" rather than the customary 30 seconds?

    How can it be that you’ve just begun and you’re already looking to end it, @MagicalC13 ?

    Wouldn't one way be to read all 3453 pages?

    How long do you think that would take?

    Are you trying to trick me into doing a math problem, @nossmf ?

    Do you think my daughter was annoyed when I asked her to perform math outside of school by figuring out how many cookies each person received from our completed batch?

    What kind of cookies? Do you have any to share?

    Would it be easier to give us the recipe than to mail us a cookie?

    Isn’t learning so much more fun when done outside of the classroom though?

    Should we have a rule here not to bring up any delicious food or beverages unless the person posting has enough to share with the whole thread?

    Isn’t it easier to eat a cookie that’s already been made than to save a cookie recipe to my bookmarks that will collect dust and fall into the abyss of all my other pins and saved items?

    So are you saying no more discussion about coffee unless you have an entire pot brewed and ready to distribute?

    So then, it's a question of whether it's easier for the baker -- mailing cookies vs posting the recipe -- or easier for the rest of us -- receiving a baked cookie vs following the recipe?
    Is there no way for it to be easier for everybody?

    Does that not seem fair to you, @nossmf , because you would refuse if offered coffee?

    How would I mail someone hot coffee? Wouldn't coffee grounds (and a tea bag) and cookies in a jar with the recipe attached be equally easier for both the sender and the recipients?

    Have you ever gone camping, dear lady? Do I not drink coffee in that scenario, awaking in the cold after a night spent sleeping on the ground, and find it not only acceptable, but desirable?

    Isn't instant coffee even deliciously acceptable when camping this time of year? Have you tried mixing it with Swiss miss?

    Are you able to imagine my face is symmetrical and get the whole way there?

    Wouldn't I rather have Ghirardelli Hot Cocoa than Swiss Miss?

    Do you go camping so infrequently that you never acquired a taste for coffee after getting back to the real world , @nossmf ?
