So I was in gym, for reasons that escape me. To get out of doing tedious and pointless exercise, I re-derived the theory behind calculus.
Let me back track a little bit. My friend, who we shall call 'Mr. X' felt that he wasn't doing well enough in maths, so he took it upon himself to take some sort of tutoring. Unfortunately, he skipped a lot of the crucial theory elements of the course, and ended up having no idea what to do. In particular those parts of the course that dealt with stuff we hadn't done in class, especially differentiation.
So he asked me: 'Whats the derivative of s = 5t - 10t2? I had no clue, so I dismissed it, because there's no point in thinking about something that makes no sense to you.
UNLESS the only alternative is tedious, pointless exercise. So I re-derived basic calculus and solved Mr. X's problem.
My god's it's so beautiful. I won't be able to sleep, or talk about anything else for a long time now. So try to avoid me. 7504 When I say 're-derived' I mean 'extrapolated from a known solution', but that's not nearly as impressive.
Last night, I spent hours working on this one problem. I could barely sleep just thinking about it. Then I managed to solve it absentmindedly on the bus this morning with very loud people near me talking about how their last mammoth hunt.or something like that.
I hate when that happens, it makes past me look like an idiot and present me look like a jerk for showing past me how much of an idiot he was. 7431And time travel just makes it more interesting

NEWS (yeah, it's a joke)
attention-- Operation Lots of Bloggers Talking about How Cool Blogging is Compared to Say, Golf. You know, a blogging community would be pretty cool. If YOU like the idea of linking up with other cool blogs, getting loads of warm, fuzzy comments or just having a variety of rants to read when you're bored talk to us and we'll add a link to your page here (and you do the same). Because when your in a society of bloggers, the pretense of professionalism can obscure the fact that everyone you know is incredibly boring and not worth talking to.
