They want a boy to buy them a drink. Call this chivalry, call this whatever you want, I call it fact. Even if you dont use this as your opener, make it happen shortly.

Math was my favorite subject in school. Numbers dont lie. An answer is right or wrong. 4+4 8, never 0, never 9. There is no subjectivity: right or wrong, black or white, yes or no, it is a binary response. Math is exact, there is no room for ambiguity or opinion. Interpretation is unnecessary.
