Why would I want to be hated by High Schoolers around the world?

Haha, true, but Pythag is easy!
Qwert Yuiop
A lot of people have a hard time with it.
Jaysus
Well then, no offence, but a lot of people aren't good at maths then..
Sgt pepper
i thought Pythagoras's theary was easy at 13
Kyle
then i guess the biggest mistake in your life would be going back in time to get an equation named after you, so you're life would be completely the same

Bitch please, I thought it was east at 11.

if I would fix my biggest mistake now..I wouldn't be who I am.

What if my single biggest mistake in life was not having the Pythagorean Theorem named after me?

Pythagoras wasn't the first one to know about it anyway, plus there's already the Gregorian calendar.
MarkTheGr8
Everyone makes mistakes. Don't regret. I want a piece of Pythagoras' bitches
Aron Karkea
Go back in time and potentially change the future dramatically or create a paradox? SURE! Why the fuck not? I'd rather not answer either one but everything in my past makes me who I am so I choose the red one

God my biggest mistake is the biggest cause of grief throughout my life I would want nothing more than to fix it!

Fuck math!

Mistakes makes you what you are.
Anna
Why would I want an equation to be named after me just to be hated by students everywhere?
Zackary
If only I could.
Cat
Mistakes are what make us who we are.. If we changed it, the whole course of our lives could change for the better, or worse. Lol, jks. I just want an equation named after me.

I might get rich this way and I haven't really done anything bad enough that I need to change.

Too easy. Having your name on the Pythagorean Theorem would mean nothing to anyone, except some mild excitement you alone will feel. Everyone else will be sure you were named after a mathematician, which means absolutely nothing. Hell, I know a guy named Pythagoras, and it really makes no difference. At least correcting a mistake would have some usefulness in your life. Changing the Pythagorean Theorem to your name has the same outcome as being named Pythagoras.

You'd have some explaining to do if [insert you name here] just showed up in the future, alive and young.

W/ blue you can make it so you pick Red.

What if my biggest mistake is answering blu

I definitely would not have married my first wife, you might know her, her name is Satan.
Gabriel Lopez
If your sole purpose was Togo back I time to fix a mistake, then that mistake wouldn't exist after you fixed it. Therefore, in the new timeline, there wouldn't even be a need for you to go back in time. Meaning you wouldn't need to fix the mistake that never was.
Kevin
I picked blue so I can fix the mistake of not picking red

How is this even a debate?
Elijah Parnell
What if the biggest mistake of my life that i wanted to go back in time to change was going way back in time and renaming pythagoras' theorem after myself instead???
Dr. Squirell
No one would know but you so it dosnt matter they the person had the same name because they would only think you were related.
James Bray
I don't want to be famous.
Matt Wilson
What the fuck is this question?
Bobby
While I don't think it'd change anything in my life, I hurt someone in the past and I'd do anything to change that...
miso12
Umm nobody likes math which would equal nobody liking me?

Only math nerds would give a ****

Everyone wants to correct their biggest mistake, but think about how it would alter the future. It may alter it in a good way, but there's always that chance that it could screw up your life forever. By making said mistake, you learned from it. By correcting it, you wouldn't have really gained anything from it and you would go on living feeling like you could go and correct anything that you did, therefore you would keep making stupid mistakes. But that's just my assumption. And having an equation named after you would be totally badass~

F*ck math

The biggest mistake of my life was being born.

I hit someone with a shoe in grade 3, whoops.
Wolf Fang
correct every single biggest mistake of your life = you wouldn't learn from your mistakes, and things could have gotten worse.
Apple Jack
No one's going to believe the Theorem was named after you specifically.
Kitty
What if the biggest mistake I've ever made was not coming up with the Pythagorean Theorem?

My name will be known through time. The best.
