Stupid sexy math

Jonathan Swift got there first:

"If they would, for example, praise the beauty of a woman, or any other animal, they describe it by rhombs, circles, parallelograms, ellipses, and other geometrical terms, or by words of art drawn from music, needless here to repeat."

Gulliver's Travels, Part 3 Chapter 2

yeah but Swiftie was physically repulsed to nausea by his wife. He's the absolute poster boy for being in the closet.

TIL, and it makes sense.

Man, I finally read that book a couple months ago. Way more pissing and shitting than I thought there'd be.

Before everyone was on the Internet; before everyone recorded everything; and before she would get absolutely in trouble, I had a 7th grade math teacher with a shirt that had the quadratic formula across the chest area.

One day when teaching this topic, she wore a jacket over it and when introducing the formula, she unzips the jacket and with great enthusiasm, reveals her formula to the whole class. To this day I have that formula hardcoded into my brain and, on occasion, use it (mostly on bullshit employment tests but still.)

I had a sexy engineering physics TA in uni that wore tight white pants. Her sessions were full and the other TA’s was empty. I think she kept a lot of guys motivated to not flunk out

Still counts.

Giving me some Perry Bible Fellowship vibes

[–] Geek_King 6 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I thought it was uncredited Perry Bible Fellowship!

The PBF artist, Nicholas Gurewitch, has his signature on the comic (bottom right, sideways)

[–] Geek_King 3 points 4 months ago

Ah, I only knew the name of the comic and not the artist's name. Thank you for the info!

I dunno, this reminds me a bit of Shirt-storm.
