Maths is (Well Can Be) Funny

Filed under: Humour — Camera Dave @ 10:46 am

Last week I would up debating the humour value of maths - For the most part they sided against me and refused to believe that mathematics could be at all funny, as a result of this I decided to look for some evidence and show them the funny and here are a couple of highlights from the incredibly funny xkcd.com:

"Alone" - Comic strip from xkcd.com

'Dating Pools' - Comic strip from xkcd.com

'Factoring the Time' - Comic strip from xkcd.com

Now if maths jokes are is a little bit too hardcore for you, not all of his strips are based around maths - He also does a nice line in physics jokes, such as:

'Loud Sex' - Comic strip from xkcd.com

Now if you are stil reading and more important here is one last joke from his site, a one panel wonder for geeks (who are probably the only people who have read this far).

'Bug' - Comic strip from xkcd.com

Now I am not saying that maths is always funny, nothing is always funny - But like two kids on a seesaw it’s not without it’s moments - B’dumtish!
