Does the sequence go N girls, N-1 cups? Or N number of girls sharing only 2 cups?

I need to know how this scales as the number of girls and cups grow larger.

[–] [email protected] 27 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I think N/2 would make the most sense

What if n is an odd number

in this economy you need a cupmate to afford the rent on even the tiniest of cups

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago

⌊n/2⌋ cups

this stuff is so much easier to figure out with one man one jar

[–] [email protected] 12 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Under capitalism, every man gets a jar.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 10 months ago

Under capitalism, nobody is given a jar; jars are "earned". One man owns the jar factory and most of the jars.

Always just one cup for any N girls

[–] [email protected] 10 points 10 months ago (1 children)

AFAIK it scales at a 2:1 ratio. n girls means n/2 cups.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

Well actually this is a discrete math thing, so if we let n be the number of girls, and f(n) be the number of cups, then f(n) = n/2, but only such that n = 2k, where k is an integer.

The all-meat diet his daughter hawks, past benzo abuse, and probably karma 🤷

Seems like he forgot to set his house in perfect order before criticizing the world.

becoming a right-wing grifter grinds away your soul until you're an empty husk like republican senators.

So apparently it was chocolate. I hope it really was.

Chocolate, Fudge

I was actually thinking about that video the other day for some reason. I was wondering if younger people knew about it or if it had been forgotten to time.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 10 months ago

I think a lot of people know, it has sort of entered pop culture, even if they haven't seen the video.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

Some people don't even know meatspin. It's a travesty honestly.

Can't be Werner Herzog, since he doesn't use contractions.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 10 months ago (1 children)

It's that lobster fella, but I enjoyed reading it in Herzog's voice after you mentioned him.

Up yours, woke moralist! We'll see who Kermits who!

[–] [email protected] 9 points 10 months ago

Jordan Peterson. About as insane as Herzog but much more malignant afaik

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago

You are right, he does not use contractions

[–] [email protected] 7 points 10 months ago

It's even worse when you realize they are sharing the single cup to use as a toilet. Can't even get a real toilet in this economy SMH
