Don't tell me your age; you probably would tell a falsehood anyway-but the Hershey Man will know!
YOUR AGE BY CHOCOLATE MATH
This is pretty neat.
DON'T CHEAT BY SCROLLING DOWN FIRST!
It takes less than a minute .
Work this out as you read ...
Be sure you don't read the bottom until you've worked it out!
This is not one of those waste of time things, it's fun.
1. First of all, pick the number of times a week that you would like to have chocolate
(more than once but less than 10)
2. Multiply this number by 2 (just to be bold)
3. Add 5
4. Multiply it by 50 -- I'll wait while you get the calculator
5. If you have already had your birthday this year add 1756 ....
If you haven't, add 1755.
6. Now subtract the four digit year that you were born.
You should have a three digit number
The first digit of this was your original number
(i.e., how! many times you want to have chocolate each week).
The next two numbers are
YOUR AGE! (Oh YES, it is!!!!!)

5) 100x+250+1755+b
where b=1 if you have had your birthday, 0 if not
6) 100x+2005+b-birthyear
but wait....(2005+b)-birthyear=age
and 100x is just adding a multiple of 100 and does not add any ones or tens.

Dude, seriously. What do you do for a living?

Dude. This has been going around the internet in different forms for years. Where have you been? Stuck in a left turn lane behind someone that won't enter the intersection until it's clear or something?

Thank you.
It's amazing how many people think this kind of thing is some kind of miracle.
