Nerd Quirks

Being so awful at math, I prefer to not graph functions at all, but I do think using “f(x)” is fancier than just plain “y”. Thanks to discophysics for this submission!

Thanks to anon!

This is so cool, it’s the digits of pi in musical form! :]

What pi sounds like (by newscientistvideo)

nonillion: (noun) A very large number equal to 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000.

$I just feel better about it that way! Thanks to sauniell for this submission! Edit: I know some of you were saying that this was wrong, and that it is actually more accurate to keep the value as a fraction. You’re right! Though I think the circumstances of whether or not it’s okay to convert can be a bit subjective. But what sauniell and I meant was that we just felt better converting the fractions to a decimal for a more specific, clear-cut answer. That’s why we said “seems more accurate”. I hope that clears up any confusion. :]$

Screenshot from the movie “Never Been Kissed.” Can you spot the error?

It didn’t necessarily bother me that the person who made this piece for the set didn’t know pi, it bothered me that they didn’t even care to look it up.

I mean, why can’t you be entertaining and informative at the same time?! :]

Thanks to queenkimmie for this lovely submission!

Do you get the point?

Teacher: *plotting points on the graph* Okay class, so the formula is y=mx+b and you just take the coordinates you've been given and plug them right into the equation. Then you can plot the points. It's really simple, so you don't have to worry about it. Everything you need to solve the problem is right here. Do you get the point of why we do this?
Me: HA! HAHAHAHA! POINT! YOU SAID POINT! GEDDIT? LIKE POINT!? YOU'RE PLOTTING POINTS ON A GRAPH! AND YOU ASKED IF WE GOT THE POINT! HAHAHA YOU'RE CLEVER MR. MATH TEACHER! 
Teacher: What are you talking about you deranged child...

This is the story of Parallel and Isosceles...

Me: Parallel lines are my favorite kind of lines. Parallel... That's a pretty word. That would be such a pretty name for a baby girl! You know, like if I wanted to give my children nerdy math names! 
My friend: Parallel? What? Okay, I guess that's a cool name. If I had a baby boy and I was going to give my child a nerdy math name, it would be Isosceles. That's the nerdiest math name ever.
Me: Oh my gosh! I'll have a girl named Parallel and you can have a boy named Isosceles and then they can have cute little math play dates and they can eat pi together!
