I am amazed at people who are wired that way.
I have a friend who can look at complex equations and see a mistake instantly.
Me? I can’t count to 21 unless I am naked.
I see what you did there...
Don't gain any weight or your math skills will degrade.
From the article: “Their rare and at times fraught collaboration makes for an entertaining film. This is in spite its sprinkling in bits of math throughout, which some viewers might find daunting. For example, upon hearing about a taxi’s number 1729, Ramanujan pointed out that that it’s the smallest number expressible as the sum of two cubes in two different ways (1 cubed plus 12 cubed and 6 cubed plus 10 cubed).”
Did anyone else read this and immediately know it’s wrong?
Guess I know what gender you are LOL.

This is really weird, 1 cubed is 1 and 12 cubed is 1728 which adds up to 1729 alright but six cubed is 216 and ten cubed is 1000, that adds up to 1216, nowhere close to 1729. What kind of booboo is this?
Chuck Norris has counted to infinity. Twice.
Izat a zero or a one?
I told that joke to a S.C. redneck once. He looked puzzled, said he looked in his pants and got to twenty but was mystified for getting to twenty one. I asked him if he counted his finger he was pointing to fingers and toes with ... his look of ‘Ah hah’ was priceless.
