A freestyle on Calculus I just wrote

<p>Teach be getting up in my grill testin me over integrals and Rieman sums
She be tryin to stress me, make me reach fo' tha tums
She's be teaching all this ****, with all these damn customs
I ain't got time for this son; I'm like Einstein, I write my own axioms.</p>

<p>She's so uptight. She thinks I cant get by unless I study her way
But I'm gonna do it how I want and dog her test fasta than an exponential decay
So come on teach, I ain't scared
You can't touch this, I'm like e to the x squared</p>

<p>Yeahh!! lay down da beat yo...</p>

<p>Not bad at all.</p>

<p>Hey that's very creative! ;)</p>

<p>Have you ever heard the (nerdy & corny) joke about how a calc nerd asked a hot, popular girl to the prom? If you think you know it PM me (and in any case, I'll PM you back w/ the answer). ;)</p>

<p>a joke?! I want to hear it!</p>

<p>and nice freestyle, btw.... it makes me happy...</p>

<p>Dude you can't tell us about the joke and then hold out...you have to write the joke here. The suspense is just too much.</p>

<p>Haha, I'm sorry. Here's the joke:</p>

<p>Q. How did the nerd ask the hot girl out to the prom?</p>

<p>A. He asked her if he could be her derivative so he could be tangent to her curves.</p>

<p>The answer can also be:</p>

<p>A. "Can I be your derivative so I can be tangent to your curves?"</p>

<p>Haha ;) It's corny I know. I didn't post in case anyone would take offense to it. I doubt it though. When this girl in my class told my calc teacher, she cracked up!</p>

<p>I like it. I thought it was funny - though I wouldn't personally use it and definitely don't recommend that anyone else use it. Unless you ask a fellow calc-nerd. So yeah..... let me know what you thought of the joke ;)</p>

<p>I'm not sure what my Calc teacher would do if I told her that. She'd either laugh or she'd hit me or something. Ok, well she wouldn't hit me, but she might spite me.</p>

<p>Haha, funny. Our calc teacher is cool, and the girl who told her the joke is a (smart) class clown :D</p>

<p>So, what did you think dvlfnfv5?</p>

<p>I figured the joke would have something to do with a curve. It brought a brief smile to my face and I suppose that's what jokes do. And yes, that was beyond corny.</p>

<p>L:DL haha, I'm glad you had a similar reaction.</p>

<p>At least you were</p>

<p>a) Not ridiculously smitten like my Calc teacher
b) Bright enough to figure out what it meant
c) Sensible enough to see that while it was slightly funny, that it was corny nonetheless ;)</p>

<p>Has anyone else heard it before? What do you all think?</p>

<p>haha i've heard it before. there's a ton of math jokes like that out there. it's great =p</p>

<p>:D Haha so save me. Yeah. I came across this short and sort of hilarious calc poem once. It was more hilarious that anyone would even think to write it, but the poem itself was good.</p>

<p>I'm going to search for it and I'll post it as soon as I find it ;)</p>

<p>So, if anyone has anymore Calc freestyles, original calc poems or jokes, or "calc entertainment" from other sources - post it here!</p>

<p>I'd be surprised yet kind of happy if this thread underwent 'exponential growth' ;) :D</p>

<p>Hah, you'd like that wouldn't you.</p>

<p>;) Just as much as you want to 'dog' your teacher's test! :D</p>

<p>Here's that poem:</p>

<p>Guy geek:
"I love you;
You are my hero.
My love for you is 1/x
as x approaches 0."</p>

<p>Girl geek replies:
"Wait Wait! As x approaches zero from which direction?"</p>

<p>That doesn't rhyme in some places and it doesn't flow. I disapprove of it.</p>

<p>Haha, very good! Sure, I don't hate calculus myself (<em>obviously</em>) but, nymets, you have talent with words! Are those your own original lyrics?</p>

<p>Btw, it doesn't have to rhyme to be good poetry!</p>

<p>Sometimes, calc itself seem to not make sense 'in some places.' But the beauty of it is that you take what you understand and you try your best overall. Clearly, the poem's meaning is intelligible and the emotional aspect is evident.</p>

<p>Wow..... I'm not sure now whether this post is more AP Eng. Lit-ish or AP Calc-ish?! :D</p>

<p>But it's not poetry, it's a rap. And while even raps don't have to rhyme, it's has to flow. This is choppy.</p>

<p>Raps have to be ghetto fabulous. This one..is not.</p>

<p>It's still lyrics. You said so yourself, it doesn't have to rhyme.</p>

<p>And about the flowing: It depends on how you break it up. Maybe nymets leaves that to the reader's interpretation. Perhaps you're reading it in a way where it doesn't flow. The way I read it, it flows nicely. The way nymet's hears it in his/her head probably flows well aslo - or else s/he wouldn't have posted.</p>

<p>Does anyone else have entertaining Calc "stuff" to post?</p>
