Post by: petelamana on 14/02/2018 19:11:15

I hope no one suffers from one of these today, of all days...

½(x²+(y−(x²)^1/3)²)=½

Yes, I'm being fun.  I hope no one minds?

Thanks.  I'll take your word for that.

As far as broken hearts are concerned: Puto, me nemium vetus crescere pro hoc stercore!
