Detta Warrior Member # 4478	written Monday, October 17 2005 09:55 Profile Homepage #8 I just read this one over at another site and loved it... Two male mathematicians are in a restaurant. The first one says to the second that the average person knows very little about basic mathematics. The second one disagrees, and claims that most people can cope with a reasonable amount of math. The first mathematician goes off to the washroom, and in his absence the second calls over the waitress and tells her that after a few minutes when his friend returns, he will call her over and ask her a question. All she has to do is answer one third x cubed. She repeats 'one thir -- dex cue'? He repeats 'one third x cubed'. She: 'one thir dex cuebd'? Yes, that's right, he says. So she agrees, and goes off mumbling to herself, 'one thir dex cubed...'. The first guy returns and the second proposes a bet to prove his point, that most people do know something about basic math. He says he will ask the blonde waitress an integral calculus question, and the first laughingly agrees. The second man calls over the waitress and asks "what is the integral of x squared?" The waitress says 'one third x cubed' and while walking away, turns back and says over her shoulder "plus a constant"! Posts: 81 \| Registered: Sunday, June 6 2004 07:00

The engineer walks into the factory, wanders around for a little while, walks up to one wall, holds his ear against the wall for a moment, then takes a pencil out of his pocket and draws a little X on the wall. "The leak is directly behind that X," he says. The foreman thanks him and asks how much his advice is going to cost. "$10,000," the engineer replies. "What? But you've barely been here for two minutes! All you did was put a little X on the wall! I want that bill itemised!" The engineer shrugs, scribbles a little note on a piece of paper and hands it to the foreman. It reads: "Putting a little X on the wall, $1. Knowing where to put the little X on the wall, $9,999." -------------------- The Empire Always Loses: This Time For Sure! Posts: 9973 \| Registered: Saturday, March 30 2002 08:00
Error Shock Trooper Member # 5585	written Monday, October 17 2005 14:52 Profile #11 Three lawyers and three engineers went on a buisness trip by train. The lawyers bought three tickets, but the engineers bought only one. Suprised, the lawyers asked how the engineers planned to travel with only one ticket. The engineers simply told them to watch. As the lawyers wached, all three engineers crowded into the bathroom. Soon, the conductor came by, knocked on the door, and said, "Ticket please!". The door opened a little bit, and a hand came out and handed the conductor a ticket. On the trip back, the lawyers bought one ticket, but this time, the engineers didn't buy any. The lawyers asked how the engineers planned on travelling without any tickets. This time the engineers just said, "you'll find out". Both groups entered the train, and each one crowded into a different bathroom. Once the lawyers had shut the door, one of the engineers left the bathroom and walked over to the other one. Then, he knocked on the door and said, "Ticket please!' Edit: 250 posts!

I read it from a book called Count Down* by Steve Olson. Pretty good book, actually. A guy on another board I frequent was posting a bunch of math jokes yesterday. He knows I love the math talk. Here's the rest: Do you know why the mathematician was so unhappy? His life was full of problems. * Why did the cube cross from the second to the third dimension? The second dimension was too square. * A mathematician and a physicist agree to a psychological experiment. The (hungry) mathematician is put in a chair in a large empty room and his favorite meal, perfectly prepared, is placed at the other end of the room. The psychologist explains, "You are to remain in your chair. Every minute, I will move your chair to a position halfway between its current location and the meal." The mathematician looks at the psychologist in disgust. "What? I'm not going to go through this. You know I'll never reach the food!" And he gets up and storms out. The psychologist ushers the physicist in. He explains the situation, and the physicist's eyes light up and he starts drooling. The psychologist is a bit confused. "Don't you realize that you'll never reach the food?" The physicist smiles and replies: "Of course! But I'll get close enough for all practical purposes!"

Thralni Master Member # 5977	written Tuesday, October 18 2005 05:03 Profile Homepage #19 I like this joke very much. I tolled it not long ago on an other topic: A man comes with his dog to the synagoge. Upon entering, however, the rabbi stops him: "You can't enter with a dog," he says. "But this is a special dog," the man says. "What is so special about him?" The rabbi asks. The man goes to his dog, and orders him to wash his hands and open up his bible. he does it! The dog neatly washeshis hands, dries them and opens his bible. The rabbi looks fuul of awe at the dog. "That's amazing! You should bring him to Hollywood! You could be rich!" The rabbi says "Yes I know, but what can i do that the dog wants to be a dentist?" -------------------- Play and rate my scenarios: Where the rivers meet View my upcoming scenario: The Nephil Search: Escape.

The thing to remember, of course, is that your arm has a reach of nearly a meter. :P Some guy posted the dog joke in the other thread (too tired to check), and it's still dumb. While it indeed does not add anything to the joke whether the other person is a (Jewish) rabbi, and it does not matter whether the book the dog is opening is a (Christian) bible, both together indicate an inconsistency. This alone generates a potential set-up for a punchline, but is left hanging in the air. This distracts from the actual joke, which isn't that good in the first place. Wow, I needed that rant. :) [ Tuesday, October 18, 2005 06:50: Message edited by: Atrus ] -------------------- Encyclopaedia Ermariana • Forum Archives • Forum Statistics • RSS [Topic / Forum] My Blog • Polaris • I eat novels for breakfast.

Or else o'erleap. Law Bringer Member # 335	written Tuesday, October 18 2005 09:57 Profile Homepage #21 Here's the joke told in a more consistent (and emphatically Jewish) way: quote: A man walks into shul with a dog. The shammas comes up to him and says, "Pardon me, this is a House of Worship. You can't bring your dog in here." "What do you mean?" says the man, "This is a Jewish dog. Look." And the shammas looks carefully and sees that in the same way that a St. Bernard carries a brandy barrel round its neck, this dog has a tallis bag 'round its neck. "Rover," says the man, "daven!". "Woof!" says the dog, stands on his hind legs, opens the tallis bag, takes out a kipa and puts it on his head. "Woof!" says the dog, stands on his hind legs, opens the tallis bag, takes out a tallis and puts it round his neck. "Woof!" says the dog, stands on his hind legs, opens the tallis bag, takes out a siddur and starts to daven. "That's fantastic," says the shammas, absolutely amazing, incredible. "You should take him to Hollywood, get him on television, get him in the movies, he could make a million dollars!!" "You speak to him," says the man,"he wants to be a dentist." The joke has to do with stereotypical Jewishness. As much as I hate when people say this to me, I have to say it: if you don't understand it, you don't understand it. Explanation won't help. —Alorael, who doesn't find it all that funny anyway. It's a little bit funny, but there are much better Jewish jokes.

Nicothodes Lifecrafter Member # 4682	written Tuesday, October 18 2005 12:38 Profile #23 Here are two jokes, both jewish(but not as obviously so-they more have to do with jewish stereo-types). I don't like the second one as much, because why it's supposed to be funny isn't obvious. A jewish mother gives her adult son two shirts. A few nights later they are about to go out for dinner. He comes down wearing one of the shirts and says 'See mom? I'm wearing one of the shirts you gave me.' The mother says 'What? You didn't like the other one?' A Chinese restaurant opened up, but went out of buisness soon afterwards because it wasn't a jewish neighborhood. -------------------- Do not underestimate the power of the mechanical pencil.
