I found this gem on Failblog, it made me conflicted between laughing and crying.



It makes me even sadder to be unemployed and these two idiots are not.

I was actually drinking tea when I was watching the vid... the liquid went down the wrong pipe... LoL :-D

I hope this is an isolated case - extreme isolated case of foolishness and if not then, Houston, we have a problem --- pishhhh over Houston...

The other is $0.002 is 1/5 of a dollar or 20 cents and the other is plain 0.002 cents or 1/5 of a penny.

I guess they mistakenly applied the concept of basic math learned in 2nd grade... $ .02 equals .02 cents and then your elementary math teacher keeps telling you on this particular instant you ignore the unit of measurement --- what is sad is that when the lady said MATH Is a MATTER of OPINION! hahahaha! ;-D

I hope Verizon is not intentionally defrauding their customers by saying they will be charged 0.002 cents per kilobyte and then, get billed 20 cents/kilobyte.

If that is the case then, again we have a major problem Houston.... come in Houston... help oh, help --- the shuttle can not seem to lift off! hahaha!

I will post it over at <)))>< Eaters

PS

Isn't it in the olden days... they used to divide a penny... LoL

So how many micro-cents are there in a penny? LOL

Perhaps my explanation of 0.002 cents being 1/5 of a penny is not even accurate.

And then, lo and behold some Math fanatic will sue me for "allegedly" giving my personal opinion --- God forbid... hehe...

Mr. Economist,

I have a question the prices in the gas station that says: $1.73 9/10 for regular, $1.83 9/10 for special, $1.93 9/10 for super - what does the numbers expressed in fraction stand for?

Does it mean 9/10 of a penny? 9/10 of a nickel? 9/10 of a dime? 9/10 of a quarter? 9/10 of a half dollar or 9/10 of a dollar?

Or does it stand for 9/10 of a gallon? or 9/10 of an individual's daily consumption of gasoline in a particular country?

Please do not tell me it's a factor in the economic equation that is absolutely relative/subjective and arbitrary!
