One time I had to buy 40 watermelons for a local festival, and ended up having to get them from the grocery store. Didn’t want to bruise them, so I filled 4 carts up and made multiple trips to the checkout. For a moment there, I was the lady from all the math problems.
Sad

I know orgy math when I see one.

Much better than that time Dave brought taco bell for everyone before the orgy

It was the best of times. It was the worst of times.
Fortunately we were at Daves patents house, so no cleanup.

You cut one pineapple, share it with 6 friends, and goo around looking for people that want the other 36 ones.

goo around looking for people
What does that entail? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Upsidedown pineapples
FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 11 months ago
6 people get 6 pineapples each, and you get the extra without mentioning it to anyone.
Alternatively, 7 people get five, and you keep the 2 extras because you went to all the work and they’ll never know.
It next time maybe try buying what you need instead.
mihor@lemmy.ml 11 months ago
Who’s the 7th person?

Your mom.

Letting her know you drank a bunch of pineapple juice before your date.

So you figure out the volume of pineapples by creating an equation for their shape, then divide it up.
atomicorange@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Easy, that’s just nRT/P, assuming the pineapple is an ideal gas.

Assuming the pineapples are a sphere rolling down a frictionless slope…

I was at a networking event with people with work people. They had a big tray of fruit and cheese that included a whole, unsliced pineapple displayed on the center, not being used. The caterers thought my request was wacky, but agreed to let me take the pineapple. The people I was with shamed me out of taking it, and I reluctantly dropped the pineapple. The ordeal became something we still reminisce about. I found a random pineapple on my desk one day. And we share pineapple-themed pictures when we happen upon something.
This particular day, I hit the pineapple jackpot.

Just cut off 37/6ths of a pineapple for each of your friends.
superfes@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Everyone gets 6 pineapples, except for you, you get 1.

Just keep on halving it (trust me)

You do that kind of arithmetic quite often if you work in a kitchen.

Who told you I’m eating only one pineapple?
keepcarrot@hexbear.net 11 months ago
My knife only has room for 3 cuts, after that it’s just flat bar. How do I cut these pineapples?

Me at uni: Let N = 2^2^…^2, n times, and G be a graph of size N, then using Szemeredis Regularity lemma…
Me at home: We have like 8-9 apples left honey, do you really need a precise number?

At some point I did feel like this in college.

first divide up your friends into infinitely smaller and smaller friends until you almost have zero friends
Skullgrid@lemmy.world 11 months ago
I’m already there!

Do think an electric saw will do and then transition to filet knifes or…?

Just put a small “D” before them
MBM@lemmy.world 11 months ago
I put them back together and now I have 12 friends, now what?
TheReturnOfPEB@reddthat.com 11 months ago
Keep going. You need to approach zero friends.
