On the offchance that any of you reading this is a secret genius

Please tell me if you know of any method to implement the Miller-Rabin Primality Test (a common test used to check if a number is a prime number or not) without iterating though k from 1 to log2(n-1) when trying to formulate n-1 as the product of 2km, K being an integer and m being an odd integer? A shortcut would be very nice, as the current method seems insanely clunky but I can't think of another way to do it.

Oh, and official question, even though I've asked a nontrivial amount of the audience already: Go look at this picture and tell me whether I look sexy, all fucked up on some illegal substance, ugly as sin, or any combination of the above. Those that have already answered don't have to, of course.
