Gokul43201 is so cool, but has such a dorky name. I want to like him, but cant.

Help ! I was wrong...I'm dy...innnnngggg...please...like me ...trib...dooogg !

Yup...too late. Gokul43201 has died. His soul, however, has been resurrected and now goes by the name of 'tribdog'.
 
ps I was kidding about the dick comment. just forgot to put the jk.
I have to watch it, I am in trouble for being not funny. I really do like you Gokulddif8iw38764 I just think your name sucks.
 
Yes i agree. Keep it simple and to the point.

Microsoft is the root of all evil

I know how our poor dear Gokul became the sinister Gokul43201.
One dark and stromy night(thunder & Lightning) Gokul(no 43201) decided to sign up for hotmail.
Regrettably 'gokul' was already taken and he was given the choice of (thunder & Lightning) :rolleyes: Gokul43201.
From then on at PF,he transforms into his deadly & humorous Mr.Hyde form 'Gokul43201'(thunder & Lightning).

Moral: Sue Microsoft:Take up Linux! :biggrin:

Close but no cigar.

It just struck me as curious (when I was playing around with numbers some time ago) that 5 digit numbers using the digits 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4 (with 0 not in the first place) in various arrangements, have a strange propensity towards forming primes. Typically, there's 1 prime for every 5 odd numbers in the range 10,000 t0 43,000. This is expected, and is within 10% of a rough estimate using x/log(x) as a prime counting function. But among the "anagrams" of 01234, there's 1 prime for every 2 odd numbers !

The largest of these primes is 43201. :smiley repesenting profundity:




Oh, and one more thing : that's my zip-code (postal code) :biggrin:

Quantum wells have zip codes?

I'd have taken the cigar.

Hmmm...no, but some zip codes have quantum wells ! :wink:

That is so profound, I feel quite dizzy! I am glad to know that the banana stuck in your ear has not affected your quick wit. :biggrin:
