Dear Reddit,

I may have a GSCE B in Mathematics and if I have a particular math problem that needs solving, I'll happily spend 3 minutes of my day to figure it out in my head without a calculator (like if I'm grocery shopping and I need to figure out how much it'll all cost). But trying to determine how many people up/downvoted my post on my own? I'll pass thanks.

Let me put it another way: YouTube, a site that is infamous for often making terrible and arse-backward decisions regarding its site design, still has a "like/dislike" count on its page. When you make a site design move that's worse than what YouTube has, there's no countable amount of "up" that you've "fucked".

He's saying he's not exactly the sharpest tool in the shed when it comes to maths and has no desire to use his limited skills trying to work out how popular his post is.

[–]GoldGloveStatus -1 ポイント0 ポイント

Well he coulda just said so!

[–]seanbeag -1 ポイント0 ポイント

He did. You just didn't understand how he put it.

[–]GoldGloveStatus -1 ポイント0 ポイント

Yes, I understand. I was being sarcastic.

[–]sargENT_shart 8 ポイント9 ポイント

Did you expect him not to brag about his almost degree for absolutely no apparent reason at all?

[–]ModerateDanger 11 ポイント12 ポイント

A GCSE isn't even close to a degree. He's actually bragging about being slightly above average at maths when he was 16.

You do your GSCEs when you're 15/16 - at the end of secondary (high) school. They're then followed by A-levels (16-18, optional. Either at 6th-form or college), which in turn is followed by a degree at university.

maybe he's 16. i wish i got a B on my math o levels...

[–]ModerateDanger 1 ポイント2 ポイント

O levels? You're showing your age there!

[–]Not_a_Flying_Toy 2 ポイント3 ポイント

When do you do your OWLS and NEWTS? Those are British tests too right?

[–]ModerateDanger 2 ポイント3 ポイント

I think only certain schools do them. Something to do with being differently abled; I was never really sure to be honest.

[–]timelyparadox 0 ポイント1 ポイント

So if im one paper away from having BS in Statistics/econometrics i can brag?

[–]theskepticalidealist 0 ポイント1 ポイント

Hello. Fellow British

[–]JD5 0 ポイント1 ポイント

He's not bragging. He's just making the point that he's reasonably competent at it.

[–]sargENT_shart -1 ポイント0 ポイント

Oh my, I wasn't aware of that.

Kind of cringe worthy to be honest.

[–]Buzz_Killington_III 0 ポイント1 ポイント

Maybe he was going for a joke.

[–]Vincentgarcia38 -1 ポイント0 ポイント

?¿

[–]Arjunkk 5 ポイント6 ポイント

A B in GCSE is not anything special at all? weird brag?

[–]Buzz_Killington_III 0 ポイント1 ポイント

I think that's his point.

[–]DryadCub 0 ポイント1 ポイント

He's not bragging, he's saying he doesn't want to take the time to find out how many people upvoted/downvoted his post.

[–]Jim_and_Karen_4ever 9 ポイント10 ポイント

what the fuck. You just humble bragged for entire paragraph, non-ironically.

You gave me cancer straight to the heart.

[–]hextree 6 ポイント7 ポイント

GCSE B in Mathematics is definitely not a brag, it's the opposite.

[–]VoteRonaldRayGun 2 ポイント3 ポイント

Don't worry, it's probably pure mathematics so he's got a lot of spare time.

[–]Kendermassacre 2 ポイント3 ポイント

Incorrect, It is Lupus.

[–]nulla_facilisi 0 ポイント1 ポイント

?'ed for brian adams.

[–]seanbeag 0 ポイント1 ポイント

Cancer? Is that the reddit opposite to gold now? If you like a post you give it gold. If you don't like it you give it cancer.

[–]LaPoderosa 0 ポイント1 ポイント

Or AIDs

[–]hextree 0 ポイント1 ポイント

The 'S' is capital. It's not a plural.

[–]LaPoderosa 0 ポイント1 ポイント

But what if I wanted to pluralize it, like to say I was going to give someone multiple AIDS?

[–]hextree 1 ポイント2 ポイント

Then you're a monster.

[–]I can enter anything here?Ashivas 2 ポイント3 ポイント

Who ?voted this?

[–]neohylanmay 5 ポイント6 ポイント

?votes? Really guys?

[–]duckvimes_ 1 ポイント2 ポイント

I can just imagine /u/dw-Im-here or /u/FabulousFerd.

I just got back from walking my ferret by the park with my girlfriend and now I'm ?voted, really guys??

[–]nulla_facilisi 0 ポイント1 ポイント

no question.

"A site infamous for making terrible design decisions has X, therefore it proves that X is needed for a good site!"

Fine logic.
