    Antares post the following equation on the board and insists that it is correct. How can his equation possibly be true?


    8 + 8 = 91
    only the dog knows for sure.​
    or would you prefer another question on the Constellation?​

    That's so easy!

    8 men + 8 women = 91 children
    (but this refers to the period until 1960)

    Ahh but monks are supposed to be celibate. That means they don't fuck (except for Slisse who fucks a love doll) or maybe they are Gay.

    I thought the celibacy rule didn't come into effect till the 1700's.

    You mean when the monk accidentally dropped the "r" from "celibrate" when transcribing the bible?

    (thereby saving the world from an extra few billion people)

    :D

    Unfortunately we monks are also humans (despite what some people think) and humans make mistakes.
    Through history more mistakes were made by making copies.

    There is indeed "celibate" instead of "celibrate".

    But there is also a monk who made the following mistake:
    For the 2nd amandment he wrote instead of
    ... the freedom for people to bare arms.
    the following:
    ... the freedom for people to bear arms.

    Basically the Constitution at the time it was written meant men who owned property.

    OK, The answer to the initial problem is that by keeping the same font the equation should be turned upside down and reversed.


    Thus 8 + 8 =91
    becomes
    16 = 8 + 8
