Learning Math On LSD
Posted by glen from www.youtube.com
Pin it! I thought this HAD to be a prank until I made it all the way through the video. Sidenote: I learned how to multiply my 9s by the steadfast rule that the sum of the numbers had to equal 9. So 9x4 = 36, 3+6 = 9. I digress.

We...huh? I don't even know what to say about this. I learned much of my whole number math buying comic books. $.10 (for a VERY short time), $.12 and $.25, along with the $.05 for turning in pop bottles. There, I just told you how old I am. And I did end up with a bunch of the first Spiderman, Fantastic Four, X-men, Thor, Daredevil, Iron Man, Ant Man and the Wasp, Hulk, Dr. Strange and Captain America. Along with a bunch of DC's Our Army At War (Sgt. Rock) along with the generic titles that included The Haunted Tank and Johnny Cloud flying that P-51. Never thought much of Superman and Bob Kane's "New Look" Batman but was a big fan of The Flash, Metal Men, Green Lantern and Blackhawks.

Comic book math?! I could get on board with that as the new Common Core ;)

How disappointing that no actual LSD was used in the making of this video.

I'm not so sure... we can at least assume that the people behind the video were on *something*.

And we thought Common Core was insane...

The only thing I found wrong is when he said that a four has four corners. It makes a triangle (that's three corners). I'm confused. 27? I make my four's with an open top.
I learned my 9's on my hands. Hold your hands out in front of you and each finger is numbered 1-10. 9x2? Bend down finger #2. 1 to the left, 8 to the right=18. Bam!! 9x6 (my nemesis when figuring in my head) 5 to the left, 4 to the right=54. BAM!!
Slow work day...
