Dr Eldo:

Is there a way to make omake that doesnt require even the slightest bit of skill?

Also, How do you become a dictator while still being loved by the people AND without losing your honesty in the trade?

My time freezing machine is complete and its purpose has been fulfilled, what should I do now?
1) Take it apart and reassemble it. Proceed to step 2.
2) Repeat step 1.
I have a problem with staring at women with very large breasts, however the only reason why it is a problem is because the very large breasted women say its a problem. Are they right?
It's only a problem if you get charged for it. Otherwise, not guilty, your honour.
Also, what damages could occur if i were to lets say, push a female down some stairs?
Monetary damages.
I always drink beer on Fridays, why is that?
It's because of some ancient occult Swedish ritual of sorts. But I'm not an expert on this field, my research is mainly directed in the orgy area of the rituals.
Is there a way to make omake that doesnt require even the slightest bit of skill?
Yes. All you need are the particular manga chapters, glue, scissors, lettering, and MS paint.
Also, How do you become a dictator while still being loved by the people AND without losing your honesty in the trade?
Become fictional.

i remember a comic from xkcd that said that the standard creepiness rule is to not date anyone that is

your age
_______ +7
2



does Eldo agree with this rule and if yes, does it also work the other way around? ( your age x2 -7)


just curious.

I've always heard: Half Your Age Plus Seven <-- which seems more realistic than the one you stated.

This is for the older person in the relationship.

Also, all the variations of this 'formula' including the one above are completely arbitrary and meaningless really.

Dr Eldo I have a maths question...

Half Your Age Plus Seven = your age/2 + 7? :wink:

Awwww, there is always room for a reply. ;)

I read Fuji's comment to say this (your age + 7)/2 because of how the 2 was above the ______ <- division symbol. My fault if that wasn't the case.

Let us do some plug and chug: (32/2 + 7) == 23 (where 32 your age), so lowest that a 32 year old should go is 23 without being creepy. Let us reverse this, (23*2 - 7) == 39 (where 23 is your age), so the highest you want to go is 39. But wait, (39/2 + 7) == 26.5 so something doesn't add up and the system is flawed and 'reverse' of the original proposed ( your age x2 -7 ) shouldn't be trusted.

Now, if we do it this way: 2*(your age-7) then it should be more accurate.

note: For those that need matlab

Code: Select all

age=input('Enter your age: ');
if age>=14
lower=age/2+7;
upper=2*(age-7);
fprintf('dating range is %3.0f - %3.0f\n', lower, upper)
else
disp('You are too young to date.')
end
^-- found that elsewhere... don't ask.

Age should not be a factor and the formulas are worthless anyway imho.

Of course, Dr. Eldo has the final say. ;)

Is it possible to date an anime girl? If yes, does the above formula applies to this kind of relationship?

although i believe that age can be irrelevant, i was curious if the rest of the people here thought otherwise in reference to the equation i found. i was trying to make it look the most clear, but alas i have failed. i did mean (your age/2) +7 just as xkcd's comic stated. i was curious if it went the other way around, and as psi explained the more accurate methood of 2*(your age-7) i believe i have found the answer to the second part of my question. now the first of, if Eldo belive in this rule.

My approach is to drink water throughout the night and take a multivitamin before crashing.

I stumbled on http://www.soyouwanna.com/site/syws/han ... rfull.html and it's got a nice way to cure hangovers.
