I didn't like "showing my work" in 7th grade and I still don't like it today. The answer is the answer and if someone doesn't like it, he can go **** himself. By the way, I have nothing of substance to add to this thread--I just wanted to rant about 7th grade math.

Spent many hours today in the company of "those like you" and plan to spend a lot of time in the next week helping them accomplish their "evil plans".
