1. an exotic form of torture. see also geometry.
2. the art of figuring what "y" equals when "x" equals 10 through confusing formulas such ast y=12x^2-563x+1/4
3. a method of making high school math teachers feel important.
1. I was a naughty boy, so i had to take algebra.
2. i wanted to figure what y was when y equaled 2 to the third, i think.
3. my math teacher has no talent in anything

Another word for torture. It’s basically a pointless class where the teacher expects you to know everything prior to taking the class and takes much pleasure in making the students miserable. You learn stupid shit like graphing an equation on a Y and X axis which does not really make too much sense. Some problems require you to find up to eight different answers and it’s one of those time consuming classes where you get homework every day. You pretty much will never need Algebra unless you just love Math and plan on becoming a Mathematician or a Math teacher.
Mr. Smith, an algebra teacher, arrived at the last stack of tests. He looks over the students’ answers and chuckles to himself and as he says “This guy is a fucking idiot. Guess who’s getting an F? You are! Haha this is so much fun. Have fun in summer school.”

1. A class that makes complete sense to some people, while annoying the hell out of others.
2. An article of clothing worn by mermaids
1. Dude Louis just got a 100 on his algebra test without studying! And I studied for like 3 hours, but I only got a 46!
2. If you want to get to second base with a mermaid, you have to take her algebra off.

Possibly the worst class ever created in the history of mathematics and education in general. You sit in a classroom listening to a boring teacher talking about solving for x, writing y as a function of x, and finding out what the slope is of (18, 92) and (68, 92). While in this class, half of the students understand it perfectly and end up getting A's and sometimes even 100's on the tests, while the rest of us who suck donkey balls at algebra study for five fucking hours only to receive a fucking 30 on the test.
Right now I have an F in Ms. Preston's algebra class. Yeah motherfucker, an F. Why? Because I would rather drink pinkish-red colored anal excretions than do algebra. Why, just last night I studied for about two hours for a fucking algebra test I ended getting a fucking F on. Who cares if I fail, I'm never going to need this shit in the real world.

Algebra:
If Johnny has 5 apples, and Susie has 7 apples, why don't they just shut up and eat their goddamn apples!?

Algebra is a topic that was created thousands of years ago for the sole purpose of pissing high school students off.
I got an F in algebra, now I've gotta take it agian!
