Graham cracker club-s'mores, anyone?

PEMDAS is the only one of those school time things I remember. I forgot the one about the solar system... Something about "My Very Elderly Mother..." doing something...

my very elegant mother just sat upon nine

Nine what? NO ONE KNOWS. This is a poorly thought out mnemonic device.

Ha! I was just eating S'mores earlier this night while doing my calculus homework. Fate tells me I must have this shirt.

Now... time to indulge in more S'mores.

Ah, that's where the halving comes in. Halve a graham cracker in the beginning, halve one in the end (or more likely, use the leftover half). Thus, one graham cracker per smore!

Is that what happened? I just thought it was the whole Pluto Nash thing... Poor dude.

You add HALF of a graham cracker twice, which makes just ONE graham cracker.

I'm a lot better at understanding this shirt than I am at math...

So that's why I should've paid attention in math class!

ak1803 wrote:i understand most of this problem, but is there any reason we are adding graham cracker twice? who uses four pieces of graham cracker for one smore? what gives?

That's why it is divided by 2. You get half for the bottom and half for the top for a total of 1 whole graham cracker...not 2. ;)

I would completely understand math if they used less letters and s'more food pictures! (see what I did there?)

I was gonna say, this seems more mathy than sciencey...

it's a cute idea, but I was really excited for three science shirts this week :| talked myself out of 5-second rule, so I guess it's down to tomorrow.

That's not really all that scientific...

The equation shows a graham cracker being divided by 2. I suspect that means the first graham cracker piece is the base and the second is the top. That being said, I am not a math major so don't hold me too it. :-)

Also, I don't type quickly enough.

I just realized that I ordered the wrong size - has anyone ever had any luck getting woot to switch the size?

So not only are Moon Pies delicious, they also help you cheat at math!

I like the shirt but I believe that S'mores would be tastier, neater, and use fewer keystrokes on a RPN campfire.

Email service@woot - it can't hurt, and the shirts won't even be printed for a bit so you should be good to go. Worst case, they can cancel your order and let you start over (which would suck) - but I've had success

No, the smiley face is after the equation sign; so it has nothing to do with the left side of the equal sign. Besides the "(" equal the ")".

As this is the simplified form of the smore equation (after all, we don't deal with chocolate brand coefficients or graham cracker isotopes) the duration and temperature aren't included - so be careful if you attempt to recreate this experiment! Always be sure to wear the appropriate safety equipment.

I love you

I have to disagree with the use of the "". It should be a picture of a smiley face to match the rest of the formula. I'll be the computer for this one:

Unexpected CHAR_COLON on line 1, expected one of TYPE_INTEGER, TYPE_PICTURE, or MATH_EXPRESSION.

We didn't subtract the fire!
It was always burning
Since the world's been turning!
We didn't subtract the fire!
Yes I did buy it
while you tried to fight it!

even though your math confuses me i loves smores and this is a cute clever shirt. got one for my dad too whos a mathmatician, he's gonna show it off to all his students next class. =)

Smores aren't that good. The mess outweighs the taste by multiple units of weight.

I have passed those in stores so many times and been tempted by the way they look... but I feel like just one would already be too much, let alone a whole box!

Congrats art101! Now I want s'mores

If you use double parenthesis you typically use a bracket to distinguish between the two.

You said we weren't going to be tested on this! I haven't studied, how could you do this to me? This isn't fair!

PEMDAS

Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally

hmmm... I really like this one... I think better than yesterdays... but I spent my budget on t-shirts yesterday...

In grade school I remember seeing a poster that read: Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally (PEMDAS)

You're not adding the graham cracker twice. You're only using half of it for the bottom and half of it for the top.

Algebra turns me on a little bit, especially after my wife and I argue about who should buy this... for me.

She won, or lost maybe, I'm not sure. But I gotta gonowbye!

In for 1 for the next camping trip. After a few cocktails perhaps the instructions could prevent a trip to the ER!

Is anyone worried about the part where they never subtract the fire?

Man I just remembered how much I love smores. Nice work!

Have you tried biting sideways? Instead of biting vertically like a sandwich and squeezing the goo out the sides, bite horizontally. The crackers take the load and there is less compression on the goo.

That is the worst shirt ever.
