School is a gym, really. You don't go to the gym because changing position of heavy things in 3d space is a useful life skill. Math is weights for your brain.

And now you have a calculator in your pocket, and no idea how to do anything more complicated than basic arithmetics with it.

I can't understand things like "why I have to do math (or chemistry, or physics etc.), I will never use this" or "I don't need classes, I can do this with my calculator" Wait, you are not alone in the classroom... People among you want to be an engineers, architects, lawyers, doctors etc.... It is about give the same opportunities with the same basis to give the minimum for anybody to choose a career.

I don't have a calculator in my pocket, I have one in my head. Called a brain.

Anyone else wonders how the fuck we were able to live without smartphones?

You wanna look like a dumbass buying multiple articles in a bazaar by taking out your phone to calculate 76+62+13+77 ?

But somehow we would always have pen and paper?

I have degrees in engineering and computer science but I honestly don't think I could have done those same degrees back in the 50s. I rely so heavily on computers and numeric methods for the problems I solve its crazy

It’s to much stupid. Wow a 90’s teacher or any decade teacher can preview the future? Or it’s some kind of american joke I’m too brazilian to understand?
