Haters will see you walk on water and say it's because you can't swim.

Reddit isn't a good place for asking programming questions, at least I think so. If the question is at the basic level, then it is best to ask in a forum like PF where one can get more personalized help. If it is regarding some library that doesn't work, then maybe Stack Overflow is a better place. The first thing to do before asking on SO is to ask Google, and if nothing turns up, then ask yourself if the question will be useful to future visitors. If the answer to that is no, then there are fairly high chances that SO will close the question with downvotes.

Isn't it simpler to just post the original question incorrectly? Then others instead of correcting the answer will correct the question...

This is 21 days before towel day! And 21 equals 42/2. An accident? I do not think so!

And 21 days is ##(10! / 2!)## seconds. Very suspicious!

Your thinking too much again.
You really want to irritate the Star trekkies, that is if it doesn't go over their head.

I found a little poem that originated some time after Einstein introduced relativity

"
There was a young lady named Bright
Whose speed was far faster than light;
She set out one day
In a relative way
And returned on the previous night.
"

There is a weird anti-limerick:

There was a young man from St Bees
Who was stung on the arm by a wasp.
When asked "Does it hurt?"
He replied "No it doesn't;
I'm so glad it wasn't a hornet."
