The Big Mac Analogy

February 1st, 2010 Andrew No comments

I absolutely love this.

Tom Steele Answers The Tough Questions - The
McDonalds™ Analogy

Why guys don’t want to be friends with a girl who breaks up with them…

I know a girl who broke up with a guy and she told him she wanted to “still be friends.” He said, “No thanks.” She wondered why he couldn’t fall back to being just friends after they had a romantic relationship. I came up with the ”McDonalds Analogy” to try and explain it in a simple way that would help all women understand this tough question.

Imagine if you went to McDonalds a lot and ordered a Big Mac Combo meal. A Big Mac, Large Fries and a Coke. You really like this meal. One day, you pull up to the drivethrough and order the Big Mac Combo meal and the girl tells you, “I’m sorry - you can have the Big Mac and the Coke, but you can’t get fries with that anymore.” You think about this for a moment, and sure - the Big Mac is the centerpiece of the meal, but McDonalds has some really good fries and you like their fries with your meal. So you say, “I’ve been able to get fries with that before, why can’t I have fries with my Big Mac combo anymore?” The girls says, ”Well, I just think it is better if you only have the Big Mac and the Coke from here on out.”

At this point, a lot of guys are going to go to Wendy’s or BK and see if they can get fries with their combo at that drivethrough window. But there are some guys who REALLY like McDonalds Big Macs and they might think, “If I keep coming here and ordering the Big Mac and Coke, maybe she’ll change her mind and give me some fries with that later.” So they will keep on getting the combo without the fries until the deal breaker happens: One day that guy is going to order the Big Mac and Coke and then he’s going to pull up a little bit to pay, and someone else is going to pull up to the drivethrough speaker and order the “Big Mac Combo” and he is going to hear the girl say, “Would you like fries with that?”

That’s why guys don’t like to be friends with a girl who breaks up with them.

NH Makes 3 Wolf Moon Shirt Uncool

January 28th, 2010 Andrew No comments

Original Story: WMUR

3 Wolf Moon Shirt

3 Wolf Moon Shirt

I must admit, I was not aware that the "3 Wolf Moon" shirt came from NH. The fact that it does is amusing, but I think it's even more amusing that now the state is turning it into the official shirt of New Hampshire.

It would seem that this would mark the end for this internet meme, since it's already gotten so much mainstream exposure.

Proposed Fringe Drinking Game

January 23rd, 2010 Andrew No comments

My roommate and I enjoy watching the TV show Fringe, and we've developed a drinking game to go along with it, which I decided to augment with a few suggestions I've found floating around the internet

  • 1 Drink for every series of questions Olivia has (it used to be for every question, but that got ridiculous)
  • 1 Drink every time Walter says "hypothesis", "theory", or something similar
  • 1 Drink whenever Walter mentions food. 2 Drinks if it's inappropriate
  • 1 Drink whenever Walter references a previous project
  • 1 Drink whenever someone says "door" or "portal"
  • 1 Drink if Walter gets someone's name wrong
  • 3 Drinks if you spot the observer. Finish your drink if you missed him by the end of the episode

Oh Please, Can We Keep Them?!

August 26th, 2009 Andrew No comments

I feel like I'm actually doing our client a favor by including some helpful descriptions for the Item Finder

I don't think this is going to make it through legal...

I don't think this is going to make it through legal...

I mean, the all important Mountain Dew item is an oft-overlooked substance, but knowing how to handle it is vital, as well as knowing the correct products to use.

Intelligent Design Sort

July 10th, 2009 Andrew No comments

Found this on StackOverflow in the Favorite Programmer Jokes question. Thought it was hilarious

Introduction

Intelligent design sort is a sorting algorithm based on the theory of intelligent design.

Algorithm Description

The probability of the original input list being in the exact order it's in is 1/(n!). There is such a small likelihood of this that it's clearly absurd to say that this happened by chance, so it must have been consciously put in that order by an intelligent Sorter. Therefore it's safe to assume that it's already optimally Sorted in some way that transcends our naïve mortal understanding of "ascending order". Any attempt to change that order to conform to our own preconceptions would actually make it less sorted.

Analysis

This algorithm is constant in time, and sorts the list in-place, requiring no additional memory at all. In fact, it doesn't even require any of that suspicious technological computer stuff. Praise the Sorter!
