Yeah, but you're an amateur fry cook and I come from a long line of fry cooks that don't live past 25.

Now tagless for your comfort.

That's a double whammy. Candy coming to the door is hard to resist. A little kid raising money for school is hard to resist. A little kid raising money for school by bringing candy RIGHT TO YOU? Unpossible to resist.

I ordered off a kid that came to my door two weeks ago. The candy was supposed to be in this past weekend but we were away. If this kid doesn't bring me my $8.00, 6 oz. chocolate covered cashew nut clusters, I'm tracking his ass down and beating him. *sigh*

Who'm I kidding--I don't know his name and he's probably eating my candy as we speak.

Any mathy types around? I think I've found the primitive 8th roots of unity, but my calculator disagrees.

Sounds incredibly Zen-like.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

How gullible are you? [link]

And no, it's not some trick, where clicking on the link proves you're gullible.

Didn't they find that in The Fifth Element or something?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

You're thinking of Serenity.

Of course. You can't find the primitive 8th roots of unity without love, right?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

You can't stop the primitive 8th roots of unity.

I've fallen so hard for Kitchen Confidential. They'd really better not cancel it.

t glowers threateningly at ratings

And Arrested Development had a line this week that totally made up for last week's off-ness.

(DH is watching Prison Break right next to me, but I'm not really paying attention.)

Well, first just the 8th roots of unity -- I think I can handle finding the primitive ones. Basically, I need someone to verify for me that (-1/sqrt(2)-i/sqrt(2))^8 equals 1. Then I'll be all happy. Well, all happy except for the final question, which requires reading and actually understanding the bit about finite subgroups and inifinite groups.
