Origami and Math

Apparently the math goes like this: Origami Website + (/. crowd) = 0
Your paranoia is about as subtle as the alien probe in your neck.

I've always found that my stress level is directly proportional to the number of times I've tried to fold a goddam pterodactyl or swan or whatever the hell it's supposed to be. I think this guy has the right idea. =)
Orgasms and Math?
[/me reads article header again]
Wow! Too much studying. I'm studying for a big compiler exam and was reading this section talking about how to approach things mathematically to help prove a compiler implementation is correct.
When I first saw the title, I thought someone set out how to make an orgasm mathematically correct. I know women do complain about these things and I would be the first to congratulate the geek who could break this magical barrier by using something I can understand better than most things: Math.
Sigh... unfortunately orgasms are an NP-complete task. Something about reachability and satisfiabilty.
Origami is one of my favorite hobbies, but I never thought about it being related to science.
I think we've just found a new entry for the "World's Least Effective Pick-Up Lines Competition" held anually in Reno, Nevada.
Of course, in the rare event that the line actually works, you've found every geek's dream: a soul-mate who will never, ever grow bored of you. ;-)
Math is everywhere.
Well, not everywhere.
Math doesn't exist in our President's budget proposal, for example...
Origami is one of my favorite hobbies
Impress the slashdot crowd by:
1. Making a Beowulf origami cluster
2. Making a goatse model
3. Profit!
Table-ized A.I.
Imaginary numbers are part of math.
Dude, don't dismiss origami at all. Chicks love a guy who can work with his hands.

Geeks worldwide, trust me on this one: Learn to massage, do origami, and sketch semi-decent drawings of girls, and you could pick up WHOEVER YOU WANT!!!
Trust me.
I bet his server is folding right now!
Thank you, I'll be here all week, try the fish!
Hmmmm.... I remember doing mobius out of paper in topology classes, but somehow we never made a klein bottle.
I read the whole article, they do talk about geometry, they do talk about topology, but nowhere do they show you how to make a klein bottle out of paper...
