An evil form of magic that only the best of sorcerers can master. Not only does it involve numbers, but letters (mostly x and y). They somehow rearrange themselves into supposedly simpler forms of themselves. I don't know how because I have not mastered the dark magic of algebra yet, nor do I intend to. Teachers try to teach you formulas to learn the magic, but half the time it would only take a true sorcerer to know what's going on.
Teacher: Today in algebra, we will be learning about simplifying fractions. Simplify the following problem:
10x/3x2 + 4/x-1 + 5/6x
Me: *Head explodes trying to comprehend the magic involved*

After hours of trying to figure out why the square root of six equals the product of 2178#$^#21#@*(3.3824, the terrorists unleash a barrage of "simple algebraic equations" to destroy their mind and then beat them with a bag filled with Algebra books. After that, they stab them with a spike dipped in variable poison and shoot them in the dick. It pretty much sucks balls.
