A genius high school chemistry student takes a test, gets his score back, and is dismayed to find that he missed exactly one question and thus would not be accepted to his University of choice. He is especially bummed because the question he missed was “how many valence electrons does a Hydrogen atom have?” In his haste to complete the test, he had answered 2.
Depressed and despairing, he takes a walk alone along a beach, and is lost in thought when he trips on a metal object in the sand. Picking it up, he finds it to be a brass oil lamp, and as his fingers brush the surface a genie suddenly appears! The genie thunders, “I can grant you any one wish, but you must answer now. What do you desire?” The student immediately replies, “I wish I had gotten that question right,” and the universe explodes.

A math teacher welcomed a new French exchange student into her class and then started teaching a lesson on fractions.
The French exchange student raised his hand and said, “Excuse me Madam, but I don’t know how to say fractions. How do you say those?”
“Easy,” said the teacher, “you just say the top number and then the bottom number is read as an ordinal number. For example, 2/3 is ‘two-thirds’, 3/4 is ‘three-fourths’, and 2/5 is ‘two-fifths’.”
“Thanks, I understand, “said the exchange student.
“Good,” said the teacher, and then asked the student, “so how do you say 4/8?”
“Should I reduce?” asked the boy.
“That would be best,” said the teacher.
“One-second,” said the boy.
“Take as long as you need,” said the teacher.

An infinite number of mathematicians walk into a bar.
The first mathematician orders a beer
The second orders half a beer
“I don’t serve half-beers” the bartender replies
“Excuse me?” Asks mathematician #2
“What kind of bar serves half-beers?” The bartender remarks. “That’s ridiculous.”
“Oh c’mon” says mathematician #1 “do you know how hard it is to collect an infinite number of us? Just play along”
“There are very strict laws on how I can serve drinks. I couldn’t serve you half a beer even if I wanted to.”
“But that’s not a problem” mathematician #3 chimes in, “at the end of the joke you serve us a whole number of beers. You see, when you take the sum of a continuously halving function-“
“I know how limits work” interjects the bartender
“Oh, alright then. I didn’t want to assume a bartender would be familiar with such advanced mathematics”
“Are you kidding me?” The bartender replies, “you learn limits in like, 9th grade! What kind of mathematician thinks limits are advanced mathematics?”
“HE’S ON TO US” mathematician #1 screeches
Simultaneously, every mathematician opens their mouth and out pours a cloud of multicolored mosquitoes. Each mathematician is bellowing insects of a different shade.
The mosquitoes form into a singular, polychromatic swarm. “FOOLS” it booms in unison, “I WILL INFECT EVERY BEING ON THIS PATHETIC PLANET WITH MALARIA”
The bartender stands fearless against the technicolor hoard. “But wait” he interrupts, thinking fast, “if you do that, politicians will use the catastrophe as an excuse to implement free healthcare. Think of how much that will hurt the taxpayers!”
The mosquitoes fall silent for a brief moment. “My God, you’re right. We didn’t think about the economy! Very well, we will not attack this dimension. FOR THE TAXPAYERS!” and with that, they vanish.
A nearby barfly stumbles over to the bartender. “How did you know that that would work?”
“It’s simple really” the bartender says. “I saw that the vectors formed a gradient, and therefore must be conservative.”
An intellectual came to check in on a friend who was seriously ill.
When the man’s wife said that he had ‘departed’, the intellectual replied: “When he comes back, will you tell him that I stopped by?”
