Depends on how much greed for possessions someone has. I can get everything I care about in 1 bag (See pic). I can fairly easily replace the few things that can't fit in that. Also it depends on your perspective. I'm in almost constant pain from a trapped nerve and have mental health problems so the idea of someone who is healthy moaning about something as trivial as moving house just doesn't sound like that big a deal to me.

Spoiler for pictures:

I've been doing some research into the house and as evidenced by all the graffiti it was a pretty big party/punk house. I found out that my barber has played shows in my room, as well as my friend's little brother. It's practically a heritage house in some circles.

is that house on Ryland?

Besides BODMAS, there was PEMDAS

Parentheses
Exponents
Multiplication
Division
Addition
Subtraction

Using this method, one would get:

6 - 1 x 0 + 2 / 2

6 - (1 x 0) + 2 / 2 [Multiplication]
= 6 - 0 + (2 / 2) [Division]
= 6 - 0 + 1
= 6 - (0 + 1) [Addition]
= 6 - 1 [Subtraction]
= 5

All the discussions basically amounted to exercises in futility. No agreement could be made on whether once the equation was simplified, if addition always took precedence over subtraction [the AS is PEMDAS], and multiplication over division [the MD in PEMDAS], regardless of their left-to-right order in the equation.

It's weird how something as logical and standardized as simple math can be taught in such different ways as to make it a useless concept in any broad, standardized sense. It seems to me that placing priority with an operation of the same rank over another of the same does not actually have any more value for standardization than working from left to right. Working from left to right after the equation is simplified seems more intuitive in terms of how the equation was written as an actual tangible problem.

When I say 6 - 4 + 1, I may be describing 6 dollars in my wallet, where 4 are removed, then 1 is added. It would make sense to work from left to right, and would describe a result of 3 dollars in my wallet. But having a standard that always places priority of addition over subtraction would result in me having -1 dollars in my wallet.
Using a standard of A before S, one could not describe such a transaction with an equation. Therefore, having such a standard is limiting.
Using left to right when dealing with A and S, however, allows an equation to be written in a logical sequence when describing real concepts.

So, it seems to me that A before S standardizes a method of simply arriving at an arbitrary number in the same manner for any operation, whereas left to right standardizes a method of arriving at a number with respect to how the equation was written to describe a concept and perform an actual function.

If I had a choice about which I'd utilize, it would most certainly be the latter method.

I just pm'd you the area where it is, I wouldn't be surprised if you've either had drugs or had sex in my room, it seems the entire punk community has... and now it has me, a guy who spends his nights playing video games and reading fantasy novels living in it. I kind of feel like how you'd expect to feel after grinding your naked bum against the Turin shroud.

Did this guy fuck you in the ass and not give you the reach around or something? Cause you sound psychotic right now.

Refreshed?

Apparently selfish sodomy (great band name BTW) makes you happy. Perhaps you should see a therapist.
