The thread revolves around sharing and discussing bad math jokes, with participants contributing various humorous anecdotes, puns, and references to mathematical concepts and figures. The scope includes light-hearted jokes, memes, and playful interactions related to mathematics and its terminology.
Participants generally share a light-hearted approach to the topic, contributing jokes and humorous observations. However, there is no consensus on which jokes are the best or most effective, and the humor is subjective, leading to a variety of interpretations and responses.
Some jokes rely on specific mathematical knowledge or cultural references that may not be universally understood, which could limit their accessibility to all participants.
This discussion may be of interest to those who enjoy mathematics, humor, and wordplay, as well as fans of popular culture references related to math.

A tree is a unit. I always used it when I wanted to demonstrate that a unit is part of an exercise, or that different units cannot be added:Borg said:The whole apples, oranges and bananas being equal to 4 reminds me of a previous post of mine.

It relies on knowing that an incel is a male who can't see why despising all women who won't have sex with him on demand might be off-putting to women, assumes that attitude won't shine through every interaction he ever has with a woman, and then blames all women for him not having any luck with the ones he tries with.pinball1970 said:It took me a while
Actually it was the fig / date / date plus excel part that clicked it.Ibix said:It relies on knowing that an incel is a male who can't see why despising all women who won't have sex with him on demand might be off-putting to women, assumes that attitude won't shine through every interaction he ever has with a woman, and then blames all women for him not having any luck with the ones he tries with.

Happened here in T.O. Canada is smaller than US by an order of magnitude, so ten dead to us is like 100 to America. We just don't get this level of violence up here.
