Take a break from the drudgery with some of these jokes, song parodies, anecdotes and assorted humor
that has been collected from friends & from websites across the Internet. This humor is light-hearted
and sometimes slightly offensive to the easily-offended, so you are forewarned. I have taken care
to censor "humor" with overt sexual overtones (or undertones), degrading political taunts, and hateful
tirades, so it is all workplace-safe. I have also tried to warn of any links that will result in audio
clips so you can take appropriate precautions. Please send any potential candidates for this humor
page to the e-mail link above.
A new look at quadratic equations? Read:- 'a2' below as "a squared," 'b2' below as "b squared," etc. If a = b (so I say) [a = b] And we multiply both sides by a Then we'll see that a2 [a2 = ab] When with ab compared Are the same. Remove b2. OK? [a2-b2 = ab-b2] Both sides we will factorize. See? Now each side contains a - b. [(a+b)(a-b) = b(a-b)] We'll divide through by a Minus b and olé a + b = b. Oh whoopee! [a+b = b] But since I said a = b b + b = b you'll agree? [b+b = b] So if b = 1 Then this sum I have done [1+1 = 1] Proves that 2 = 1. Q.E.D. ...from PeterW PeterW@lims.demon.uk From: Karen REMOVEbruceandkaren@erols.com I lost you exactly half way When I saw that division by a If a=b Than only with c Can we demonstrate what you don't say a less b times b plus a = ba less b, that's ok But divide & dump b So c has to be b+a From: klein_bottle@hotmail.com (Jonah Edwards) If you integrate zee squared dee zee >From one to the cube root of three Multiplied by cosine Of three pi over nine You get natural log of the cube root of e Here's a limerick I picked up off the net a few years back - looks better on paper. 3_ \/3 / | 2 3 X pi 3_ | z dz X cos(--------) = ln (\/e ) | 9 / 1 Which, of course, translates to: Integral z-squared dz from 1 to the cube root of 3 times the cosine of three pi over 9 equals log of the cube root of 'e'. And it's correct, too. A mathematician named Klein Thought the Mobius Band was divine. Said he, "If you glue The edges of two You get a weird bottle like mine." From: rjmnapa@aol.com (Renee ) Practical Application: He's teaching her arithmetic, He said it was his mission, He kissed her once, he kissed her twice and said, "Now that's addition." As he added smack by smack In silent satisfaction, She sweetly gave the kisses back and said, "Now that's subtraction." Then he kissed her, she kissed him, Without an explanation, And both together smiled and said, "That's multiplication." Then Dad appeared upon the scene and Made a quick decision. He kicked that kid three blocks away And said, "That's long division!" Pi vs e Pi goes on and on and on ... And e is just as cursed. I wonder: Which is larger When their digits are reversed? ...from the www.wordsmith.org web site. | ||||||
