Agnes by Tony Cochran for January 06, 2025

he was in the light before you come in, Agnes.

Is that the saying now? We used to say “popsicle stand.”

And who is this General Holiness?

At Agnes’ age, her teacher is giving her tough math questions?

Sounds as plausible as any religion.

2 and 4/7ths…

iF IT DOESN’T COME OUT EVEN IT’S NOT A MATH PROBLEM

Over on “Non Sequitur” everybody’s discussing the barriers to entry for women in STEM career fields. Today’s “Agnes” provides the explanation.

That’s it. I’m selling everything and moving to Agnes’ cult in New Mexico. Pass the Kool-aid, please.

That’s a division problem that seems out of range for Agnes’ apparent school grade (at least for something to be answered on the fly), as the answer is 2.57 with many more numbers following.

Considering her command of the English language, she should go into writing or blogging etc.

Anti-enlightenment.

i’m totally with agnes about the satanity of math…

She’s gonna get in trouble! :)

In my school days, if we were given such a problem before we learned about fractions and decimals, the answer would have been 2 remainder 4.
