Shouldn\'t the millipede/centipede thing be reversed?

No, it\'s correct as written.
Milli=0.001
Centi=0.01

so 10 x 0.001= 0.01

[Gerund]

Yes, but with bugs, we\'re operating on the other side of the decimal point, aren\'t we?

Centipede = 100 legs
Millipede = 1,000 legs

10 Centipedes = 1 Millipede

I mean, being as bugs don\'t have 1/100th of a leg, or 1/1,000th of a leg, don\'t we have to operate to the left of the decimal point?

I\'m taking all the fun out of this, aren\'t I? BAD Gerund! Maybe one of you girls should spank me? [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Depends on how small you grind them up! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]

[Gerund]

Hm, no luck on the spanking thing, huh? [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

I think you\'d enjoy it too much. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

[Lucky]

&lt;Centipede = 100 legs
Millipede = 1,000 legs

10 Centipedes = 1 Millipede&gt;

There are math problems everywhere I go.

How about if I promise to enjoy it just a little? [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Over my knee this minute, and you\'d better tell me how much you like it...

Completely unarmed, unfortunately.

But I can still smack a mean ass...
