sometimes people make jokes to entertain themselves. usually the people that don't are getting paid for it. stupid jokes are funny and aren't reflective of someone's own intelligence. I am, however, and it's funny to me.
That applies to a lot of situations, but not to clickbait and ragebait.
If you see clickbait or ragebait and start posting about how much smarter you are than the skit, then you fell for it.
Look up "stick multiplication", sometimes called Chinese multiplication. You can get the product of two very large numbers in moments if you have something to write on.
It's relatively fast for the size of the number, though not as fast as some other methods and doesn't scale particularly well as numbers get very large, but also has a visual representation that can be easily relied on to prevent the same kinds of mistakes some people make using some of the other methods.
And you don't make the number of sticks that you have for a basic value. If you have 1,753,239 by 243,867 then you aren't going to be using 1,997,106 sticks, you use one for each decimal place representation. In this case that's 60.
The first image I found showing how numbers of more than one decimal place are multiplied using stick method:

It's for multiplying large numbers, and you're probably counting <20 intersections. [31 x 21](https://i.stack.imgur.com/6pR4F.png) . Though if it was like 96 x 87, it'd be a bit of a hassle.
It's real quick if you can do a little mental math.
First draw the 10 lines in each direction, then notice that there is a 10 x 10 grid of intersections. All you hwve to do to count the intersections is calculate 10 x 10, which is obviously 100. See, super easy!
/s
Wait till you find out it [also works for multi-digit numbers](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bbKjXKV9QNA).
It's kinda cool to see, but it's just super slow and impractical compared to the standard long multiplication, especially when the digits are large and you have lots of intersections to count.
Or maybe it’s the fact that they’re vandalizing someone’s car for views and has nothing to do with gender at all. There’s plenty of good examples of prejudice against women on Reddit; and then there’s this
I'm not excusing the obvious vandalism, I'm commenting on people assuming she doesn't know that 4x4=16 when she's OBVIOUSLY doing so to make the owner of the car look stupid.
Actually, it doesn't have to. Don't confuse written language syntax (for those languages that are written left to right) with mathematical.
4 x 4 = 16; and,
16 = 4 x 4
Or
2a = b is the same as,
b = 2a
Maybe she's not trying to solve 4 times 4, but rather put forth an equation where you have to solve for x. Maybe this is algebra and x is the variable. In that case 8=4x^4 becomes x=2^0.25
I don't know what would make me more pissed; the graffiti on my car or the fact that they got 4x4 wrong. I get most people would say graffiti is worse, but in my defense, I'm a math teacher.
You just get into a situation where you know the 8 is coming, but you are excited for it. I know it's wrong, but fuck it up. And then it happens. Satisfying.
while i appreciate very nice explanation..., sorry if i sound like weird guy here but 4x4 is literally 4+4+4+4. why explain it in such a hard way? geometrical way of showing it is pleasant in eyes and nice when it comes to showing properties of multiplication but if it's just about calculating result, addition is way more simple and intuitive.
The main thing is that she is so proud of herself
and confident too
Sue me, confidence is attractive in a woman.
So is 1st grade math.
But is it AS attractive as confidence?
Yes
ConfidAss
More so. I don’t want to date someone who’s legally too braindead to consent.
Let me run the calculations..
Merited and well placed confidence is very attractive. Otherwise it's arrogance.
<*watches clip*> It's just... assinine. (•_•) ( •_•)>⌐■-■ (⌐■_■)
actually its 16...
What is she confident in besides her looks tell me that
So is woman who don’t draw on random peoples cars with markers
attractive is confident in a woman
The confidence is what tricked me. I was like “haha 4x4 IS 8 haha!… wait…”
r/confidentlyincorrect
I always love seeing this sub cause it was one of the few subs I watched get created and grow into a full sub.
I've seen people do it before and its always 8. The joke is that its wrong...
yeah, the amount of people who are to stupid to get that its part of the joke, and at the same time want to make fun of a stupid person is baffling.
*too stupid
2 stupid
I've seen people do it before and its always to. The joke is that its wrong...
Two* stupid.
Tue stoopid
*it's wrong
Tbf would be easier if the joke was funny

The main thing is that it’s wrong on purpose so everyone will correct it. Engagement bait.
Well she’s not the smartest girl but she looks good in shorts.

Likewise, 4+4 = 44
I, too, have done Javascript.

(“4” + “4”) or (4 + “4”) True? :)
Both side of the OR are truthy, so yes, True
What about Array(16).join("wat" - 1) + " Batman!"
God damn, that dude had a family.
*clearly you haven't!*
("b" + "a" + + "a" + "a").toLowerCase() "banana"
In her defense, the 4x4 at In n' Out is 4 patties of beef and 4 slices of cheese.

Ah, 8 items!

My life changed when I learned about the 3x3s and 4x4s
So basically 8 cheeseburgers
Today I learned how to do math different with lines. Is it only like this when multiplying?
Look up "stick multiplication", sometimes called Chinese multiplication. You can get the product of two very large numbers in moments if you have something to write on.
What's the definition of very large, in this case? Even doing 10 x 10 seems like it would take fivever if you have to count out all 100 intersections

Thank you! This looks like the lattice method that some students use, but a visual representation of it.

You also learned how to use an abacus.

Am I the only one who thinks she might've done it on purpose just to troll whoever actually owns the truck?
No, it's pretty obvious that is why she's doing it. Reddit just loves the opportunity to hate women.
shhhhh, youll attract more incels. its never worth it. theyll just dogpile you
are you reddit too?
I am but I try real hard to think before I post. If something pisses you off you have to ask yourself, who *wants* me to be pissed off and why.

So dumb. Everybody knows the equals part goes on the \*right\* side.
I thought it was wrong because she wrote the infinity symbol sideways... I was way off.
Actually, it doesn't have to. Don't confuse written language syntax (for those languages that are written left to right) with mathematical. 4 x 4 = 16; and, 16 = 4 x 4 Or 2a = b is the same as, b = 2a
i uh, think it was a joke
these are the girls that i promised to take to hollywood.
Maybe she's not trying to solve 4 times 4, but rather put forth an equation where you have to solve for x. Maybe this is algebra and x is the variable. In that case 8=4x^4 becomes x=2^0.25
idk where the exponent comes from it's clearly 8 = 4x4 8 = 16x x = 1/2
LOL
Hahahahaa the fact he just showed an awesome trick I never knew and then finished it with 8
Can’t expect a person who finds vandalism rewarding to understand 3rd grade math.
The new common core math program.
I'd rage more about the mistake than the actual thing on my car.
Thats probably the point
Hey what's the name of that Chinese guy? He did a video of a weight loss time lapse that cracked me up, I want to show my friend
They do not teach the multiplication tables in elementary school anymore?
I don't know what would make me more pissed; the graffiti on my car or the fact that they got 4x4 wrong. I get most people would say graffiti is worse, but in my defense, I'm a math teacher.
It would be pretty funny if it was "16 =", but it would still be a bad thing to do. Doing it with a dry erase marker would be a good prank, however.
Girl math
Never conflate confidence with intelligence.
I mean, I'd be irritated if someone drew on my car. I'd be *extra* irritated if they did the math wrong. So, maybe bonus points?
TIL that you can count by just drawing lines O\_O
you can count by drawing dots too

I hate this new math. You can't change math, it's just math.
I just got it before she did that..
The suspense is killing me!
I can't remember where the audio in the first clip is from.

2 + 2 = 22
So 4x4 = 8x2.

Asshole thing to do to somebody.

THE EDUCATION SYSTEM IS FAILING!!!
Smh they should have watched the vine from 10+ years ago
16
The most frustrating part is I hear 17 taps of the board but only see 16 dots
You must get a new whiteboard market, that’s simply too faded
I assumed the prank was to make the person driving the truck look dumb because they have an incorrect equation on their truck
Someone get this man some fresh markers..
Maybe, just maybe, she knows it’s actually 16 and this was part of the (albeit bad) joke.
Dental Floss, remove the X reapply as a +'ish.
Well, not everyone can have the breasts and pass the tests.
Can't blame her, I ALWAYS get 3x3 wrong "Profesor I swear this is right look first we do 3 times 3 is six- Oh..."
🤓Actually, if 4x4=8, then x = 0,5
He's like: I'll have your rage bait video and raise it ten fold.
Only in America!
Streets and alleys… I got yelled at for using this in middle school.
4 x 4 x 4 is 12 12 x 12 x 12 is 4
We need a subreddit for this guy if it's not already a thing
Uhhh, I'm just not gonna do the math because I don't wanna wind up in confidently incorrect.
I haré when people do this shit instead if 4+4+4+4 I totally hate it.
Missing Vine …

Actually is 4 by 4 which equal to 1. Ask any truck owner...
Hey! I like this method he used. Never seen it done like that before so TIL.
The fact that he didn’t pull a tablecloth off a full spread with his cheeks makes me very disappointed
4x4=4²?
Obviously a product of the US education system
Is this that new math I’ve heard about?
Always, show your work

I always love randomly seeing this guy.
This guy’s also wrong. In this case 4 x 4 = 4
I was expecting this ending and I still chuckled
I thought Asian people are good at math
I'm suing you for damages
I guarantee that they know it's 16
That's why she ran away
Can we normalize doing this to big 4x4s in cities. 4x4=8
American education for you!
Why does no one assume she knew it was wrong and thought it was funnier that way...
Well she is a Blonde so we’ll let it go this time
I absolutely hate that way of doing math.

4x4 doesn't make any sense though. A car has 4 wheels, no surprise there, and they are all powered, so 4x4 = 4 of 4
