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.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
And Arrested Development had a line this week that totally made up for last week's off-ness.
Analrapist? Or am I being 12 again?

You can't find the primitive 8th roots of unity without love, right?
What would you people do for humor without me? Where would you get your mathematical straight lines?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Or am I being 12 again?
Oh, that too. But I was thinking of Hey, that's the name of the show!

Where would you get your mathematical straight lines?
On the street.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
On the street.
First one's free!

How gullible are you? [link]
And no, it's not some trick, where clicking on the link proves you're gullible.
Uh-huh. But accepting their definition of "free thinker" might.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
How gullible are you?
Some of those answers seem rather tinfoil hatty.
X-posty, naturally.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I am a free-thinker according to the gullibility index. It says I would have eaten the red pill if I were in the Matrix.
