There's a fine line between a numerator and a denominator

That isn't quite what I would call a joke. Normally, I would call a at 1-800-CallAJoke

But seriously, only sum people are going to get this. Many people won't quite get the amazing product of your imagination. The difference between those people, and the people who laugh will be greater than zero.

Please don't add to this. The absolute value of putting people in such degrees of pain is | 0 |. OP's already subtracted years from my lifespan with such irrational puns.

I feel you have only divided the masses here into two groups, with the root of this being at this discussion, With a large percent of them hating these puns. I on the other hand am on the side which is < the majority, but as more people appreciate this joke, this improper fraction who disliked it will have a change of heart and then these mixed numbers will exponentially grow

There will have to be some radical changes before most people can appreciate these puns. The function of all these puns will be lost on most people, but I suppose we can always introduce some pie. People seem to like pie. In fact, pie seems to be in the equation to happiness, but that is just an expression. There has always been an inequality when it comes to math puns, which is understandable. These jokes can be rather binary at times. Although, there is only a small ratio of bad math puns to good math puns. That is just me, anyways. Ah well. I feel like I sometimes beyond the standard deviation of liking math puns.

These puns have been brought to you by our sponsor, E. No, not the letter E, but the number E, who's irrational value is the derivative of itself.

I'm so glad I log-ged back on to see this. I just don't understand how irrational people can be in not liking math puns. Personally, as the greasers would say, they're just square. It takes quite some time in order to calculate these jokes. They should try to be more three-dimensional, say a cube for example. Maybe we should set notations in order to warn people of math puns coming? Though I'm not sure if we would have the power to do so, as it would be quite a quadrastic thing to do over some absolute-ly great quips.

By the way, I would love some pie, but I'm not sure if everyone else does. After all, it can be quite a mouthful.

I could give you some pi... but you'll have to pay a 3% interest rate compounded continuously.

This is completely unrelated to league.

I like it.

cuddlykitten4Mar 7, 20162 votes

It is too related to league. It's just the creepy uncle that only shows up at parties he's not invited to just to get more trashed than anyone on everyone else's booze and make your cute friends feel awkward before disappearing off into the night until his next rampage.

What I don't understand is how a completely unrelated to League of Legends joke is almost the number 1 thread on a page for League of Legends.

Did anyone actually not get the joke? That's just a sin of the times, I guess.

I can't seem to derive meaning from this joke. Try to integrate some humor into this next time.

badoogaMar 7, 20161 votes

I would recommend putting a limit on the amount of thinking you put into this, or else you'll strain yourself.

ShwaShwaBagginsMar 7, 20161 votes

Du you really think this is such an intellectual pun? Sure, fractions are an integral part of mathmatics, but the skill required to use basic fractions is f'(0) if f(x)=x^1/2; yet you think you're some Dxter or whatever. Anyways, I'm off to have some sweet Sec(x). Peace noobs.

cuddlykitten4Mar 7, 20161 votes

Goes through all of that, then spells Dexter wrong LOLOL XD

The IllithidMar 7, 20161 votes

I think it was another pun, since Leibniz' notation for the derivative of a generic function y=f(x) is dy/dx. So he took the dx part of that to make another math pun.

Either that or you were being sarcastic yourself, in which case I missed your joke.
