The correct form of the Americanism "Math", as a contraction of mathematics (a contraction featuring at least the first and last letter of the two words). The most beautiful thing ever observed by mankind; the physics of bottle caps. I only wish the real universe was as beautiful as the Cartesian plane. People usually claim it has no use because they are too ignorant/stupid to understand it. Uses include everything not involving the study of literature. The ONLY pure science.
I love maths!
I'm sure looking forward to Mr Black's maths class
Zero point nine repeater equals one. That’s some cool maths

Short for mathematics - the logical study of quantity (numbers) and abstract structure (geometry), their operations, properties, applications, and how they all interrelate.
Aside from its incredible value in real-world applications (science, engineering, business, etc.), mathematics is also taught in schools because it's the best system to demonstrate and strengthen the vital concepts of deductive reasoning, objectivity, and abstract thinking.
People who are quick to say they hate math are typically those who had horrible math teachers/curricula in school, and never grasped the basic underlying concepts of math. Other reasons for an individual's poor math skills might include having a short attention span, no confidence to question what isn't understood, and the simple reinforcement by peers that it's OK to remain bad at math. But like a sonet or a piece of sheet music, mathematics reveals its beauty to those who speak its language.

1. Another way to make us feel like total idiots.
2. A subject we all have to learn in school even though we don't need to use most of it in our life.

Teacher: More math.
Students: I don't know shit..
2.
Teacher: Give me the sine and cosine and tangent of blah blah blah.
Students: WTF?!

The only thing in this world that is certain.
Math will always be there for you. 2+2 will always =4. It’s always the same.
Math is the only thing I can trust. Math is the only thing that will be there for me.

1. "the hard way"
2. something you need to know to get through school, but will never need again once you're done.

Joe has seven more apples than Frank, who has apples equal to his age divided by 9, how many apples does Joe have if he eats half of them plus one?
Hmm... we can do this the easy way, or math...

I made this up last year when i was in 7th grade, the 05-05 year. It hit me suddenly while sitting through seven thirty am math glass what math really stood for. I told my teacher and she laughed.
Chuck Norris is the only non-geeky person who excels in math. He can divide any number by zero and come up with a different number that is always right.

Everyone: Aah, we have to go learn "math" again.
One person: Yeah, maybe we should skip it and hide out in the bathroom this period.
Everyone else: That's a great idea!
