Why is note taking a damn lesson!!!! English as a Second Language lessons are full of CRAP!!!! No literature, no Shakespere, no FUN!!!!! Australians are looking down on our English (I don't blame them). Fucking Hell!!!!!! I feel like I'm in retard class........
(cont'd)
8 hours have passed since my outburst. I'm still mad about the fact that I can't drop THAT class for the better English Studies class........ Gah!!!! High school standard is too low........
Anyway, the reason I'm back here is because I found a really funny statement in one of my text books. Surprisingly, it's from the moral education (another subject to sleep in) book. Here it is:
"Bentham introduced a scientific principle to analyse the quantity of
pleasures, ie the calculus of
pleasures, or the
Hedonic Calculus. He allotted each factor with a value which can be analyzed, eg a value can be divided into:
(1)
Intensity of
pleasure derived from an action
(2)
Duration of
pleasure(3)
Certainty of
pleasure(4)
Inclination to the experience of
pleasure(5)
Tendency to be followed by
more pleasure(6)
Purity or tendency for an action to produce opposite effect and
pain.
~ This will also be considered and the results can be compared to determine the total balance of
bad and
good(7) The calculus is done by multiplying the total balance with the extent or number of people experiencing
pleasure or suffering.
Factors 1 - 4 are normally taken into consideration in measuring the value of
pleasure and suffering. When counting many
pleasures or suffering, factors 5 and 6 are taken into consideration. Meanwhile, factor 7 is used when
many people are involved."
ONce again, a dirty mind has made another boring lesson more INTERESTING!!!! Muahahahahahaha!!!!!!! I <3 my not-so-pure thoughts.......
