BAM ! the first step is wrong.

Otherwise, it won't be so funny :)) Leo: Well, as you said, I feel what makes the proof funny is that it takes a common English phrases and interpolate it for its own use and also makes it fit very well in the equation.

That's pretty good.However, yes, there are flaws in the logic, especially in the first step. Girls require time and money, sure, but that doesn't necessarily lead to girls = time x money ... it could easily lead to girls = time + money, or girls = 4time x money/2, or more likely, girls = time + money + love + honesty etc.Also, it could also be said that boys require time and money, so the same procedure would be followed. :)Another thing: the equation take a common English phrase and turns it into an identity statement, but it's not necessarily so. For example, in English, time is money does not necessarily mean time = money. It could also mean that time is a subset of money. When I say that Fred is German, that does not mean that Fred = German (and thus German = Fred), because Fred is only one German. There are many other Germans.OK, that was a bit too detailed for a joke equation (and there are other problems as well), but you asked! :) Lol! That’s pretty good.
