Algebra
What a useless invention. So I just took my math final today, algebra to be precise, and is it just me or is algebra the most pointless tool ever? This class is the biggest waste of my time. The only thing you would need algebra for is chemistry, and what are you ever going to use chemistry for? When am I ever going to use a quadratic formula for outside of school? Or matrices? Or the FOIL system? You get homework every night and you spend your time reviewing things that are all too familiar. My time would be much better spent staring at a wall.

no, we just hate math. Thank god for people like you, or there would be no engineers in the world.

I agree with Ludicrousity ... Algebra is useful, interesting, and enjoyable. Not to mention necessary for every mathematical-related field, including physics, chem, and a host of other sciences, on the face ofthis earth.

A vector is an ordered list of numbers...and a matrix is a collection of fools.
I must agree that algebra is in fact a useless tool in my everyday life. Keep in mind, this comes from a mere artist. Perhaps I could wash an algebraic equation into a painting....and make algebra beautiful.......hmmmmnnn
