Maths teachers are constantly wrong about everything

Very rarely wrong actually.

the abomination that is PEMDAS

The only people who think there's something wrong with PEMDAS are people who have forgotten one or more rules of Maths.

...oh wait I remember that Unicody user name. It's you. Didn't I already explain to you the difference between syntax and semantics until you gave up. I suggest we don't do it again but instead, you review the thread.

…oh wait I remember that

Well, you seem to have forgotten that the woman in that video isn't a Maths teacher, which would explain why she's forgotten the rules of The Distributive Law and Terms.

until you gave up

I didn't give up, you did.

I suggest we don’t do it again but instead, you review the thread

I suggest you check some Maths textbooks, instead of listening to a Physics major.

P.S. you proved my point

Terms.

There! Syntax. We went over this. Seriously, we did, and, no, I got the last word.

I can check any textbook from any discipline. You know what? I could even ask my school teachers. Because I'm not American and I wasn't taught shit that doesn't match up with what professionals are doing.

You're just another yank drunk on jingoism, "We do it like that, therefore, it is right".

You’re just another yank

BWAHAHAHA! I see you still didn't learn to check facts first. 😂😂😂

“We do it like that, therefore, it is right”

Yep, Maths teachers do it right. :-)
