Do you ever feel like you aren't good enough at math?
Take a look at this article

Ok, now take a look at my video response to this article!
DON'T try any of this at home! All eletricity humor was simulated!
I wrote a song about it and it goes something like this.
Math Zap
By Dan Tulloh (c) 2010
[Verse 1]
Did you hear the Oxford scientists' new findings?
Do you need help finding the hypotenuse?
If you deliver some electricity to the brain,
You might overcome your shortcoming in math
[Partial Chorus]
(Math Zap)
(Math Zap)
[Verse 2 - 1]
You think I am insane?
What would my epitaph say?
That I was committed to studying too hard.
So hard.
[Verse 2 - 2]
I was trying to do better at arithmetic
Now my brain is fried and I've got facial tics.
I'll be a shocking discovery!
Laying on a math book is where they'll find me
[Chorus]
(Math Zap)
(Math Zap)
Math Zap
(Math Zap)
(Math Zap)
[Bridge Written]
Dear Dyscalculia Sufferer,
In their research is where you will find the clues
Some people will just need a little more juice,
To even make a dent...
In their number blindness...
Now make sure those scientists...
Do not reverse the electric current!!!
It will make a mathematical moron
out of you!!!
It's called an
Electrical Lobotomy
[Chorus]
(Math Zap)
Math Zap
(Math Zap)
Math Zap
(Math Zap)
Math Zap
(Math Zap)
Math Zap
[Bridge Rap]
But you mind find that it's a curse,
Being a human calculator.
Funky facts I'm about to intersperse,
You'll be expected to figure out the tab,
split between 17 scientists
taking a break from the lab.
And don't forget the gratuity.
Know what I mean?
[Verse 3 - 1]
Make sure you don't bit your lip,
Because electricity has quite a kick.
It won't work if you plug the power supply into the brain.
It's more like milliamps flowing around your parietal lobe.
[Verse 3 - 2]
This isn't a self service operation
It'll take a little more explanation.
Research scientists say they can cure your dyscalculia
Now I'm no neuroscientist;
I don't even know what that is!
[Chorus]
(Math Zap)
(Math Zap)
(Get ready to be a lab rat in an experiment of exponential proportions)
(Math Zap)
Math Zap
(Math Zap)
Math Zap
[Outro]
(Math Zap)
Math Zap
(Math Zap)
Math Zap
[Repeat Chorus]
Hey this is really good quality in all aspects! That "comments loading" you are wearing is really a cool idea :-)

@YOZcreative Thank you. Yes the comments loading is pretty cool. I actually got this shirt as a gift. A relative told me I don't talk very much in person.

@pabloven64 Thanks. Yes, I can use this shirt instead of a twix bar. When someone asks me a question I can just point at the shirt while I'm thinking.
