Nothing Wrong With This Math Problem

Nothing Wrong With This Math Problem
Just your typical math problem where a student bikes 200km to school at 90km/h while hitting pedestrians every 10 minutes. Because that's how we all got to school - leaving at 3AM and calculating intercept trajectories with siblings. The real lesson here isn't kinematics, it's that math teachers clearly never sleep and have no concept of reasonable human behavior. Next problem: "If Johnny has 47 watermelons and gives away 12, why does he have so many watermelons in the first place?"

New Probability Experiment Just Dropped

New Probability Experiment Just Dropped
Hold up, statisticians! Who puts CHILDREN in an URN?! ๐Ÿ˜ฑ This "probability experiment" went from standard coin-flip scenarios to oddly specific child-storage solutions real quick! The funniest part is how casually it transitions from "following classical probability arguments" to "we consider a large urn containing two children" like that's a totally normal thing to do. Next week's experiment: "We place three professors in a washing machine to calculate spin cycle probability." Stats professors really need to workshop their example problems!

The Human Body: Engineering Edition

The Human Body: Engineering Edition
What appears to be a cross-section of some elaborate plumbing system is apparently "the human body." Clearly someone skipped anatomy class and picked up a hardware catalog instead. The human circulatory system is complex, but I'm fairly certain we don't have perfectly symmetrical pipes arranged in a cylindrical formation. Though it would make cardiovascular surgery much more straightforward if we did. Next time your doctor orders an X-ray, just hand them this and say "I've saved you some time."

The Cylindrical Penguin Theorem

The Cylindrical Penguin Theorem
Engineering textbooks exist in their own reality where penguins are perfect cylinders and friction doesn't exist unless it's making your homework harder. Nothing says "practical application" quite like calculating the aerodynamics of a spherical chicken in a vacuum. Next problem: determine the tensile strength of your remaining sanity after solving this.
