A HOBOTHREAD GLORIOUS BEYOND MEMORY - With Scipio's Order History

[Jess_the_Hobozerk]

So, I have decided to let you all in on a personal secret about me... I... Like... PIE!  (kudos to foxcola for making me realize this in this dark hour.)

 

[Faranox]

Pie > cake.

 

[Bitey]

wut?


Who is this Bitey guy?

Hi I am just a guy that played with some of the HOBOs and found them fun enough to search out the forums they frequented

 

[Skot the Sanguine]

Wow, I am surprised that as of now the Elbe is beating the Nile and most others...  Was actually going to click the Nile when "Hark, what is this?  Elbe...home to mich?  Genau!" 

Props to you Gabeed, you didn't choose the Rhine or the Danube, but the lesser known Elbe....which indeed is where my ancestors came from...back in Roman times. 

 

[Sarejo]

Gabeed, I'm very disappointed. Where is the 137 miles wide Río de la Plata on your poll? You can make a great poll option with your wit and certain censurable people that arrived after WWII ended.

 

[Halcyon]

there is a river that is 137 miles WIDE? i would like to see that one.

 

[Sarejo]

Yup, we are that awesome in Argentina. And there is no river that can possibly compete with a 137 miles wide river. Puny Nile, Puny Amazon , puny Rhine. When the Spanish first discovered it, they thought it was a strait between the Pacific and the Atlantic. Poor guys, they had to sail another 3000km to find a strait...

 

[Skot the Sanguine]

That isn't a river, it's a confused lake.

Sorry Dies, I consider Rio de la Plata nothing more than an unusually wet delta.  I'm more disappointed that I couldn't fit in the Tigris, Euphrates, Ganges, or Indus.  As far as we're concerned up here in the US, South America only has one river, and that's the Amazon.

We'll see how well the spiked staff works for you when armor is functioning correctly again, Regendur.    Feragorn had a point.  Perhaps I'll eat Gabeed's chewy leather cap rather than my own HOBOHELM.

Dies, nobody cares about your silly Venezuelan rivers.

Pie > cake.

This is truth.

There, I have now contributed to this thread.

Pumpkin pie made with eggnog > Birthday cake


Das ist mien contribution.

 

[ScientiaExcelsa]

Every "homework day", I go to my local ice cream/coffee shop and order a Peanut Butter Caramel Cookie Dough Cappuccino Crunch milkshake.

My shake > the set of all reals.

 

[McBeverage]

Holy carp, now I want one of them.
and

my wants > everyone else's wants

Firstly, how often is a "homework day"? 
Secondly,

I was going to buy that movie the other day, but it cost $20 and was in this cheap paper slip of a box. Screw that.

Not often, be assured.

Scipio is a terrible student. He denies that the k/d ratio of 0 and 0 is infinity.

 

[ScientiaExcelsa]

While it is true that 0/0 is 0, so also is 0/R, where R is any Real Number.  So I was half wrong.  However, I don't think 0/0 is infinity.  All I remember is a lot of L'Hopital's Rule garbage whenever that came up.

 

[Faranox]

I spent three minutes thinking about this math problem. I guess that makes up for missing my math class today.

 

[Sarejo]

While it is true that 0/0 is 0, so also is 0/R, where R is any Real Number.  So I was half wrong.  However, I don't think 0/0 is infinity.  All I remember is a lot of L'Hopital's Rule garbage whenever that came up.

It's not because 0/0 is infinity. It's because the function to determine k/d ratio is y/x.

If x is 0, and taking y as a constant (that is, sectioning with y=k), we have k/x. Functions of that form have an asymptote at x = 0, hence, infinity.

 

[ScientiaExcelsa]

You are correct.  I acknowledge my mistake.
