    1.Take your shoe size...

    2.Multiply it by 5

    3.Add 50

    4.Multiply by 20

    5.Add 1012

    6.Subtract the year you were born...The 1st digit is your shoe size and the last 2 digits are yr age....prove me wrong if you can.

    Heh, not bad. Won't work on everybody though, as it doesn't take into account whether or not you've had your birthday.

    Its wrong
    10.5*5=52.5
    52.5+50=102.5
    102.5*20=2050
    2050+1012=3062
    3062-1990=1072

    My shoe size is almost correct. But im not 72. Im 22

    If you put your shoe size with 11 Instead of 10,5 it works ^^

    Ahhh... gotta love these.

    The middle 3 steps are there just to confuse you. All they do is multiply your shoe size by 100 (SS * 5 * 20) and add 2012 to it (50 * 20 + 1012). When you subtract your birth year, it gives your age (which it assumes is under 100)

    So there are many ways this will end up wrong.

    1, if you are over 100
    2, if your shoe size is in half-increments (as above. He got an answer of 1072, but if you just realized it multiplied shoe size by 100, you'd get 1050... which gives an age of 22 (1072 - 1050 = 22))
    3, If your birthday has not come this year yet (my gf is born in december... she is 21, this will give an answer of 22 for her (2012 - 1990 = 22, she is still 21))

    Just as a note for the breakdown, here is the full equation:
    ((SS*5) + 50) * 20 + 1012 - YR
    = SS * 100 + 1000 + 1012 - YR
    = SS * 100 + 2012 - YR
    2012 - YR is your "age"
    SS * 100 just puts the shoe size to the left of the year.

    Here's another maths joke:

    Take your shoe size.
    Multiply it by 100.
    Add your age to it!

    Now the first 2 digits is your shoe size and the last 2 digits is your age!! Holy fuck, magic.

    But wait, you ask say, of course that's how it goes! Because you made me write my age duh, I didn't in the above one!

    Okay, okay. My bad, let me give you another one then.

    Take your shoe size.
    Multiply it by 100.
    Add 2012.
    Subtract the year you were born.

    BAM! I can already hear you go "Seph you're so amazing! I want to have your ba-" -What? You're saying I cheated by just having you subtract the year you were born from the current year? Shit, I guess you're right. Okay, okay, how about this one then.

    Take your shoe Size.
    Multiply it by 5.
    Add 50.
    Multiply it by 20.
    Add 1012.
    Subtract the year you were born.

    BOOOYAAA! There you fucking go, can't complain now. What? You can complain? Well fuck, what is it this time? I'm still just subtracting your birth year from the current year? Well yes, yes I am. I just hid it by having you do maths which didn't actually do anything but just shuffled around values until you got to the value of shoe size (11) * 100 (1100) + current year. I can do this in in a lot of ways such as 5+50*20+1012 and make a facebook post that will boggle the minds of the stupid people everywhere, or I can just tell people to write it down and be like TADA! and then probably not get any likes.

    Yeah I'd go with the stupid people thing too.

    Maths tends to do that to me. It's so interesting I get a shot of dopamine that makes it hard to calm down.
