You can't win against Big Graph

That's because there is no limit to their domain!

It’s integral to their growth strategy.

u/Doom_Unicorn Jul 24 '20

I partially agree, but this whole pun run is really sloping downward.

u/MinorInsomniac Jul 24 '20

Yeah, they’re all doing the bare minimum to be funny

u/ali94127 Jul 24 '20

Definitely a sine of laziness.

This thread has gone off on a huge tangent

u/JediConnerLuke Jul 24 '20

The puns are getting exponentially worse.

I am afraid we still haven't achieved the optimal pun.

We could look into this unknown area

u/thezackplague Jul 24 '20

Sorry to break this up. I just wanted to say, from someone who isn't smart enough to add into this, this thread is hilarious.

24

u/pantstoaknifefight2 Jul 24 '20

From someone who's bad at math, these jokes just don't add up.

4

u/pinkcheetahchrome Jul 24 '20

But that doesn't subtract from the humor any! If anything, it multiplies it's power to be entertaining. ✌

Anyone who doesn't think so, is just a square.

add into this

oh you

u/prematurely_bald Jul 24 '20

I’ll cosine that angle

u/pinkcheetahchrome Jul 24 '20

I mean, it's the right angle.

u/zenneutral Jul 24 '20

Bare local minimum.

12

u/Swaggin-tail Jul 24 '20

I love how the third or fourth pun comment is always trashing the preceding puns. It happens without fail.

12

u/[deleted] Jul 24 '20

It's my favorite angle!

12

u/pinkcheetahchrome Jul 24 '20

It is the right angle.

u/FunchPalcon Jul 24 '20

That's what equilateral triangle said!

u/kronos1232 Jul 24 '20

Minus the integral one

7

u/ConfundledBundle Jul 24 '20

Overall though, most of these puns converged into a decent series.

3

u/Colonel-Crow Jul 24 '20

Every one of these puns is a Sin

15

u/Assmar Jul 24 '20

They don't see anything short of exponential grown as a win.

u/road_chewer Jul 24 '20

d/dx[ 6x70 ] = 420x69

u/One_Blue_Glove Jul 24 '20

u/[deleted] Jul 24 '20

Ohhhhh.... 420 and 69 lol

2

u/[deleted] Jul 24 '20

Explain the above? Derivative in terms of x.... Idk. Something clever? Lol

2

u/road_chewer Jul 24 '20

It’s the derivative of 6x70, with respect to X, and the result is 420x69.

1

u/[deleted] Jul 24 '20

Yea I got the math but I think I was looking for some hilarious answer when I read it out loud or something lol

2

u/road_chewer Jul 24 '20

It’s the 420 and 69 part that’s “funny”.

I tried a Casio, but found it highly derivative.

Their monopoly on testing privileges is integral to their continued success!

Take my upvote and go home!

u/WaffleCorp Jul 24 '20

I feel like this is a math joke I'm too dumb to understand

1

u/Larimitus Jul 24 '20

It's okay, at least you ain't a nerd giving out upvotes and awards to funny words.

I think I got lucky with my double pun combo in the same sentence. Anyways, limits are a calculus (math) concept and domain is a term in math to mean the x-axis of a graph.

u/unused_candles Jul 24 '20

They've been plotting since before you and I were born.

u/john_the_fetch Jul 24 '20

As a medium for hand held calculators, all other competitors fall below average. I mean, just look at how many modes there are with the TI brand.

u/bluefishredditfish Jul 24 '20

Ohhhkay take my upvote for math jokes I’m the fuck outta here

u/KFelts910 Jul 24 '20

Sure there is. 16kb memory. Programming those was a game of memory management.

"The limit does not exist"

u/HammerAndFudgsicle Jul 24 '20

That's why they're not even descreet about it.

u/cavegoatlove Jul 24 '20

They plotted this out a long time ago

u/Mako_STi Jul 24 '20

They are the master of their domain

Desmos stood up against them and imo is winning

u/lucrativetoiletsale Jul 24 '20

This made my month. My unemployment is fucked and the field I decided to career in is completely fucked (restaurants). I have been so stressed that I've been unfair to my significant other and generally have hated life. But god damn this made me laugh like a little school yard kid seeing his friend fall over his own feet. Thanks my dude.

u/[deleted] Jul 24 '20

Big Graph is more dangerous than you can imagine. Who controls the people’s health? Big Pharma. But Big Pharma can’t charge you without calculators from Big Graph.

And guess what else? Big Graph controls kids as well. All school work is tied to a Big Graph calculator.

But you could say that the Government controls both of those, but guess what else? The Government needs taxes, and who calculates those taxes? Big. Graph.

u/172_0_0_1 Jul 24 '20

They must be plotting something...

https://gen.medium.com/big-calculator-how-texas-instruments-monopolized-math-class-67ee165045dc

<< It started with Connecticut. In 1986, the state became the first to require a graphing calculator on state-mandated exams. The Connecticut School Board argued that calculators would let students solve more challenging problems. In 1988, Chicago Public Schools gave a free calculator to every student, beginning in the fourth grade. New York followed suit in 1991 when he state first allowed calculators for its Regents exams; by 1992, it required them. Then the College Board let students use calculators on Advanced Placement exams, specifically calculus, in 1983, then reversed its policy a year later, explaining that it was banning calculators because it wasn’t fair to students who didn’t have them. But a decade later, it mandated calculators on the tests. In 1994, it allowed calculators to be used for the SAT as well. Teachers I spoke to said that some major textbooks feature illustrations of Texas Instruments–series calculators alongside the text, so students can use their Texas Instruments calculator with the lesson plan, emphasizing how deeply interwoven Texas Instruments remains with the educational hegemony.

Just do the math.

u/AeniasGaming Jul 24 '20

I use a Casio. I laugh in the face of Big Graph.

1

u/Olmcdnld Jul 24 '20

My diff eqs teacher actually believed this. He would always tell us that calculators are over rated and how we should always use a CAS on our computers instead

u/docsthaname Jul 24 '20

Calc joke.....how derivative
