YOUR AGE BY CHOCOLATE MATH





Have a go at this

DON'T CHEAT BY SCROLLING DOWN FIRST!
It takes less than a minute .
Work this out as you read ...
Be sure you don't read the bottom until you've worked it out!
This is not one of those waste of time things, it's fun.



1. First of all, pick the number of times a week that you would like to have chocolate
(more than once but less than 10)









2. Multiply this number by 2 (just to be bold)










3. Add 5












4. Multiply it by 50 -- I'll wait while you get the calculator













5. If you have already had your birthday this year add 1756 ....
If you haven't, add 1755.














6. Now subtract the four digit year that you were born










You should have a three digit number










The first digit of this was your original number
(i.e., how! many times you want to have chocolate each week).










The next two numbers are









YOUR AGE! (Oh YES, it is!!!!!)



THIS IS THE ONLY YEAR (2006) IT WILL EVER WORK.

Strictly speaking this equation does work - provided you were born during the 20th century.

Better make sure Tikay doesnt attempt this because when you subtract 1880 in as the year of birth it messes the calculation up!!

Indeed, and don't get JP to try it either. He was born in 2001 and that will screw the sums too.

I'm sure I have done this before but don't remember it being chocolate that was involved.. 0:-)

yes but i dont like being limited to between 1 and 10 :)    It doesnt work when you want it 18 times a day :)

I must be stupid....

pies?

It is quite amazing though, enter your year of birth, whether you've had your birthday or not, and it tells you how old you are.

How does it manage.  :dontask: ;hide;

I think I missed a step....apparently I'm 3,831

Or is it meant to show how old you feel?

damn, the thread is so clever it made me go and buy a double decker... just when i was getting good at cutting down... grrr

hmmm, an intreguing development - maybe its time to start a "send bananas to matt674" thread.........

BANANA BARS   

1/2 c. butter
1 1/2 c. sugar
2 eggs
2 c. flour
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. soda
1 c. buttermilk
1/2 tsp. banana flavoring
2 tsp. vanilla
1/2 c. nuts (optional)
3 mashed bananas

Cream together butter, sugar, and eggs. Sift together flour, salt, and soda. Add buttermilk. Then add bananas, flavoring, and nuts. Bake for 25 min at 375 degrees in a 15x10 inch pan until lightly brown.

FROSTING:

1/4 c. butter
1 tsp. vanilla
1/2 c. sugar
1 1/4 c. sifted powdered sugar
1/4 milk

Melt butter. Add sugar and boil 2 minutes at slow boil. Add milk and stir just until it comes to a boil. Add vanilla. Cool slightly an dadd powdered sugar. Frost while bars are still warm. For caramel frosting, use 1/2 c. brow sugar instead of white sugar.

Ed, don't waste your time giving the monkey recpies - he can't cook. If he was an ape though.....

Cool, first banana bread and now banana bars - now i just need a lady monkey to cook!!  ;goodvevil;

ok, ok so there's more chance of BigArmo winning the WSOP so i suppose i'd better start learning :'(

If i was an ape - i'd get my monkey minions to cook for me!!

Well apes are clearly superior :)

Good job monkey doesnt have a christmas card list otherwise you'd be well and truly struck off it!!

In 165 years time I will be born. I got -165

I am going to try it again. I have always had slight Dyscalculia.  :D

did you not read the instructions?!  having -165 as a number means your original number was minus 1, and you are  minus 65 years old.... perfectly reasonable!!! .... some people......

why would you want to cook a lady monkey? isnt that classed as cannabalism???
