I can guess what he’s trying to do, and let my hair fall in front of my face so they won’t see my cheeks turn red. I’m more mad at myself than at them for that. I’ve promised myself I won’t let them get to me, but they always do anyway. I go from the ultra-confident A student to the ultra-awkward H cup in one second flat.

Not flat.

Never flat.

I set down my backpack to edit his scrawl. “But, um, don’t you want to do it on the calculator?” Kyle is disappointed that I am doing the work with a pencil, because the joke only works if it’s on a calculator.

But the joke won’t work on the calculator, either, because he’s done it wrong. His equation equals 58,002, or ZOO,BS.

I change the last part to 7(3!) and hand back the corrected problem. That will get them the answer they want. I can’t make them understand how horrible they are, but at least I can prove that I am smarter than they are.

“I think this is what you were going for. And you have to use degrees instead of radians.” On my way out, I add, “How did you guys even make it into this math class?” I don’t wait for them to input the problem into their calculators so they can finally see some BOO,BS.
