What's on your mug?

A device thought up by the government to keep high school and college students feeling dumb and therefor keeping them from begining a rebellion.

1: "Down with our capitalist government! Viva la Resistance!" 2: "Sorry, dude. No can do... Failing calculus. Gotta study up." 1: "Mr. President, we feel this generation of high schoolers think they're smart enough to overthrow the government. What is our best course of action?" 2: "Hmm... Raise the national grading scale for calculus." 1: "Brilliant!"

the highest form of fuckery known to man. the reason for cracked out college students randomly combusting into a bucket of tears. the ultimate in mind fuckeration.

Why is that kid crying over there in the library at 4a.m.? Calculus, man.

The mathematical equivalent of saying "probably" "maybe" or "don't know" instead of "absolutely" "certainly" or "definately"

Mother: "Yes or no, did you rob from the bank?" Son: "Um well, probably, maybe I don't know. I don't remember" Mother: "I want a straight answer, yes or no!" Son: "Yes or no in this case is the equivalent of an indeterminate form in the Calculus branch of mathematics, they are integer values. Do integer values actually exist in this universe as they are absolute values? I am merely coming as close to these inexplorable limits as possible by exploring derivatives and close values. In this case these would best be expressed as "probably" or "don't know." Mother: *Facepalms*

Calculus is a cruel and hard mistress. No one wants to do her because no one CAN do her. Except Chuck Norris. He can do her. Calculus is easy for him.

"Dude, did you do your calculus homework last night?" "... We didn't have homework?" "Chuck tester."

A branch of mathematics that is only useful for people trying to enter into certain fields of work, for the rest, it's completely useless. Sadly, universities in the United States require people in fields that have nothing to do with math to take this class in order to graduate, thus lowering there gpa, and making them seem less qualified as a result of a poor mark in a class that has nothing to do with their future career.

Dick: Ahhhh, so stressed!!! Jane: whats wrong? Dick: Ah nothing, just gotta a lot of calculus homework Jane: Why are you taking calculus, aren't you trying to become a physical therapist? Dick: Ya I am, but I have to take calculus in order to graduate. Jane: Wow, that makes no sense
