What is the first thing that comes to your mind...

It makes me think of the beauty and purity of numbers. We give names to numbers so we can understand them, but the numbers themselves are perfect, and never wrong. I suck at math but I love the logic of numbers themselves.

MATH CLASS!!!! "Runs away screaming"

Chicken Club Salad + Root Beer = Bliss

The first thing that came to my mind was "This has to be some kind of trick question". Upon reading what it was we were supposed to be thinking I thought "This has to be some kind of trick answer", as the brief moment it took me to read the question was one of the few times I wasn't thinking about sex.

However, if we accept the premise that 1+2=3 in a reproductive sense, and ignoring the fact that that is totally ridiculous, I've got some more. See if you can figure out what they are

1) 1 / 2 = 2

2) 1+2 = 2

3) 1+0 = 1

4) 1+1 = 1

5) 1+7 = 21

6) 1+2 = 0

I'll post the answers later.

What do you mean ridiculous?!

1= woman
2= man
3= baby

woman + man = baby

Geez.

What if it was twins? 1+2+3+3 = 9? The equation only really works with one situation.

The answer to everything is, as we all know, 42.

I sense some religious implications, especially with 5 and 6. But I don't want to get started on the subject so I'll let someone else answer first.

A friend of mine is working on his doctorate in number theory, it's a nice though that there are people living out their lives thinking about this kind of thing.

EDIT - Speaking of numbers, four thousand plus and a palindrome!

I thought "oh, sh%t, a math problem....
runs out of thread.

Funny, that was my first thought, too.

I would only look at 1+2=3 from sexual standpoint if 1=me, 2=two hot chicks.
That way you can figure out that 3=three----!
