The
Toadstool Villa
One day, Mummy Mushroom decided to make mushroom porridge.
“It´s too hot!”said Daddy Mushroom.
“It´s too cold!”said Baby Mushroom.
“Well, you´ll just have to put up with it!”said Mummy Mushroom.
“No, wait, I have a better plan!”said Daddy Mushroom, “Let´s do a supersonic equation!”
So they did.
And it went like this:
a = b
ab = b²
ab-a² = b²-a²
a(b-a) = (b+a)(b-a)
a = b+a
a = a+a
1 = 2
And Goldispores didn´t disturb them because Baby Mushroom had put cyanide in her mushroom porridge.
And they all lived happily ever after(exept Goldispores of course)and did lots of equations.
The End
