Really? Oh please.

Calling people a "dumb nigger" or "crazy mexican", etc, may be bad, but I believe it's an even worse insult to say that someone's race "follows the big numbers" linerly in a tree sum diagramme.
That's like saying they'd choose two dimes over a quarter (without a rational reason), believe that two gears placed on the same plane and contacting can turn in the same direction (proof of insanity), and actually believe than Mandrake Linux is better than Windows .NET (utterly inexcusable).

worst I meant as in not HAHA funny. shit like this isn't suppose to make you think

Sorry. Although I am American, I didn't follow the trend you indicated. Once I took a look at the puzzle long enough, and started adding numbers of the last column together, I stumbled onto the task at hand: find the path which produces the greatest sum.

My solution did not require math, because I just followed the correct path by assuming the others with one or two larger numbers were put in as a trick to throw someone off the trail.

Once I chose the correct path, I added up the others to double-check my work.

Interesting post. I don't know if this was meant to prove how certain races have evolved specific survival strategies, some of which put intellect on the back burner, or if it was just meant to be a slap in the face for those who took it seriously, but it was very entertaining.

Nar mate, an Australian looks at the above picture and says looks like some sort of strategy for sport. Cares enough to consider what sport (I thought perhaps American Football) then no longer cares..

Maybe I should whip out my calipers and start measuring heads.

Craniometry has been proven to not work at all and so has racial profiling.

Although one can argue that certain things in our environment influence our thinking, no-one can argue that all people in a race think the same. To say that is the weak attempt to fit complex things into simple packages for the feeble-minded.

How could we lose with a weapon like the A bomb?

There was no honor

But then there never is much honor in war

"all is fair in love and war"
Americans love Japan
And I dont think bombing us in a suprise attack really qualifies as honor when we hadnt even declared war on them yet

Actually, a new study has proven brain size is directly linked to mental capacity. The politically correct have just thrown out the ideas of racial profiling and craniometry because it gives minorities a bad name. Statistics don't like, but politically motivated civil rights activists do.
