Er, well that certainly is a strange question and I am not sure why you ask, but nonetheless, using your given scale, how much I hate you can be expressed mathematically by taking the derivative of all real values between f(x) = 1 and f(x) = 37 by using the Constant Rule. If you don't know the answer to the aforementioned question, highlight the following: the derivative of a constant is always 0, and as such, the derivative of all real values between f(x) = 1 and f(x) = 37 would be 0, thus giving you the answer to how much I hate you. I also think your question calls for a discussion on IRC sometime!
