Yeah, the only reason I ever scan a QR code is if I don't know what it leads to and I'm curious. A QR code in the context of an ad is stupid because I already know exactly what it leads to (probably the same URL that's already printed at the bottom of the ad). A QR code with no context whatsoever is a mystery to be unraveled.

I can't stand those things, it's like a constant reminder that there are marketing people stupid enough to believe that they work. People that think we actually read their ad in the magazine instead of just flipping past it and would also like to take a picture of it so that we can go to a website and pour over an entire site devoted to advertising their fucking toothpaste.
A few days ago I was forced to imagine a marketing exec who was not only particularly stupid but was also under the delusion that he was a clever hipster. This was caused by walking past some fucking idiot who was wearing an old timey sandwich board with nothing but a giant qr symbol on the front and back. It took a lot of willpower not to violently attack him.
As someone who is having to create URL's and do landing pages for those QR codes, I can say that Yes, they do work... if by work you mean they get about as much response rate as banner ads used to. Which in advertising terms means dollars. I've never been a fan of them myself - seems a bit convoluted. It's a neat tech, but not something I think is all that important.

So, Snookie is going to get pregnant in 21 days? That's a pretty good bit of fortune telling right there (Dec 21 - 40 Weeks = Mar 30).

No, is pregnant and due in 21 days.
I will note the only reason I know this is listening to the radio and Facebook, where people felt obligated to comment.

I wish I had thought of this. It's how I do math, I was always getting in trouble for not showing the work...and getting Fs even though I'd get all the answers correct

I hated the MUST SHOW WORK teachers. There's a lot of "work" that is unnecessary and frankly can just confuse the student.

Yeah, this. I have no idea how you could have a math problem where the work your doing to solve it would just 'confuse' the student. Unless of course they just didn't know how to solve it. The show work thing is important at the minimum because its an anti cheating filter. When you have calculators that can solve just about everything, it helps the teacher avoid having to deal with shit like this:

Showing work on a math problem is important because it shows where you lost it. A wrong answer with the right method, you just missed a decimal place or made a transcription error shouldn't be a 0 is should be almost full credit (And usually is, if you show your work).
