Calc III: Where Calculus Meets Geometry And Physics

Poor John Venn, forever in Euler's shadow! Mathematicians know the pain—Leonhard Euler was the ultimate mathematical colonizer, slapping his name on everything from constants to functions to diagrams. The comic perfectly captures that one mathematician friend who insists on "well, actually"-ing every conversation with unnecessary precision. "Those aren't Venn diagrams, they're technically Euler diagrams!" Meanwhile, John Venn sits in the mathematical afterlife thinking, "I created one thing, and I can't even have that?" The mathematical equivalent of discovering a continent and having someone else's name on all the maps.

Behold the universal descent into physics-induced madness! First, you read that problem so many times your eyeballs threaten to revolt. Then you frantically flip through notes only to discover your professor apparently taught in ancient Klingon. Soon you're convinced that rewriting the problem with calligraphy-level handwriting will somehow unlock the secrets of the universe. And finally—the pièce de résistance—you enter the time-warping vortex of just staring at the symbols until they dance before your eyes! It's not a physics problem anymore; it's a relationship, and you two need couples therapy. Einstein himself would've thrown his chalk and walked out!

That burning VW bus is what happens when your calculator finally gives up and chooses violence! In mathematics, dividing by zero is undefined because it breaks the universe's rules - much like how this poor vehicle is breaking the laws of not being on fire. Mathematicians warn about this catastrophic operation because the result approaches infinity, and clearly, infinity looks a lot like spontaneous combustion. Next time your math teacher says "don't divide by zero," just remember they're trying to prevent vehicular arson.

The mathematical shortcut we all secretly use! Finding the exact value of √69? Hard pass. But knowing it's "8 something"? Pure genius! This is peak math efficiency - why calculate the precise answer when a ballpark estimate gets you through most problems? It's like the mathematical equivalent of saying "I'll be there in 5-ish minutes" instead of calculating exact travel time with traffic patterns. Math teachers everywhere are simultaneously cringing and nodding in silent agreement.

Your brain just did a double-take, didn't it? 999 ÷ 37 = 27 is mathematically correct, but it feels like numerical blasphemy. Those three 9s lined up so perfectly, begging to be something special—only to be rudely divisible by such a random number as 37. It's like finding out your favorite constellation is actually just a cosmic coincidence. The universe is trolling us with these mathematical plot twists that make perfect sense but feel so wrong. Next they'll tell us π ends somewhere!

Physics is just copying and pasting with different letters! The linear motion equations are sitting there with their v's and x's, while angular motion equations are giving side-eye with their fancy ω's and θ's. It's the same homework assignment but make it spin . Classic physics move—take something straightforward, rotate it, and boom—whole new chapter in the textbook. The professor who invented this probably got tenure for essentially writing "find and replace" in Microsoft Word.
