Functions Memes

That face when someone claims they've proven 0=1 through mathematical trickery! The horrified cat represents every mathematician's soul leaving their body upon seeing such mathematical blasphemy. In these "proofs," people typically sneak in a division by zero or some other illegal operation, then act like they've revolutionized mathematics. It's the mathematical equivalent of claiming you've invented a perpetual motion machine because you "forgot" about friction. Next thing you know, they'll be trying to divide by zero to prove cats can actually fly.

Mathematicians: "Let's define a simple function from R² to R³!" The function: *literally crawls out of your TV like a horror movie demon* This brilliant mashup combines the horror movie trope of a creepy girl crawling out of a TV (from "The Ring") with mathematical notation for a transformation from 2D to 3D space. It's what happens when your linear algebra homework starts breaking the laws of dimensional reality! Next time your professor says "consider this simple transformation," check behind the blackboard for paranormal activity!

Behold the epic saga of trigonometric derivatives portrayed through the rise and fall of civilization! The top shows a mighty empire (like the derivative chain rule itself) where -cos(x) creates sin(x). Then we witness the mathematical circle of life continuing through each era - functions deriving functions in an eternal mathematical dance! The gradual descent into chaos perfectly mirrors how students feel when they realize these functions keep transforming into each other for eternity. It's the mathematical version of "what goes around comes around" but with more homework and existential dread!

Revenge is a dish best served with parabolas! This student decided to transform their math homework into a horror show by drawing a terrifying creature next to the function graphs. The quadratic function f(x) = x(1-x) is getting the creepy treatment it never asked for. The creature even personally greets the teacher with "Hello Joel" - making this less about finding the correct graph and more about finding the courage to grade this paper. That's one way to make calculus truly frightening!

Ever been to that awkward mathematical party where functions are trying to hook up? This meme is pure math dating drama! We've got three mathematical entities in a relationship crisis. The first one proudly declares "I'm bijective" (meaning it maps every element in set X to exactly one element in set Y, with no leftovers on either side). The second one boasts "I'm uniformly continuous" (it behaves consistently without any sudden jumps). Meanwhile, the third function is just standing there like "I'M NOT!" - completely rejecting the whole isomorphism situation. The punchline "Isn't there somebody you forgot to ask?" is mathematical consent humor at its finest. Before declaring spaces isomorphic, you need ALL functions to agree on their properties - but nobody bothered asking that third function who's clearly not on board with this mathematical relationship! It's basically consent culture... but for mathematical structures. No means no, even in topology!

The mathematical holy war we didn't know we needed! This bell curve meme brilliantly captures how understanding of polynomials follows the intelligence distribution. The average folks (middle of the curve) are confidently wrong, insisting "a polynomial is NOT a function" with that panicked face. Meanwhile, both the left and right tails—representing either blissfully simple or galaxy-brain intelligence—correctly understand that polynomials are indeed functions. It's the perfect illustration of the Dunning-Kruger effect in math education. The beginners and experts agree, while those with just enough knowledge to be dangerous are busy making angry forum posts about definitions they misunderstood in Algebra II.

The bell curve of mathematical understanding strikes again! On the far left, we have the blissfully clueless folks asking "wtf is a polynomial" with their 55 IQ. In the middle peak at 100 IQ, we have the textbook warriors confidently stating "a polynomial is a function" (they memorized that from Chapter 1). Then on the far right, the 145 IQ galaxy brains declare "a polynomial is NOT a function" before the final enlightened sage corrects them with "erm... actually" – because technically, polynomials are expressions that can be used to define functions, but they aren't functions themselves. It's that beautiful moment when you've gone so deep into math that you circle back to sounding like you don't understand math. The duality of polynomial existence is keeping math professors employed worldwide!

Regular Pooh sees "y=" and is unimpressed. Fancy Pooh with a bowtie sees "f(x)=" and gets excited. But the BOTTOM Pooh? That magnificent bear has discovered the Fourier series that draws his own image using mathematical functions! 🧪⚗️ It's the ultimate math flex - when you're so sophisticated you can describe your entire existence as a series of sine waves! Mathematicians don't just solve equations, they turn them into SELFIES! *adjusts imaginary lab goggles*

Look at that function throwing its hands up in total surrender! That's what mathematicians call an "absolute minima" - the lowest possible points on a curve where the function basically says "I can't go any lower than this, I give up!" The (0,0) point in the middle is just chilling there like "don't look at me, I'm just the origin of this existential crisis." Every calculus student knows that feeling when you've hit rock bottom and there's nowhere to go but up... literally, according to the derivative! The hands are just *chef's kiss* - even mathematical functions need to express their dramatic flair sometimes.

The classic mathematical miscommunication. One person hears "anal func" and thinks of a rather intimate activity, while the other was simply abbreviating "Analysis of Functions" - that thrilling branch of mathematics where we study the properties and behaviors of functions. Nothing says romance like a good differential equation. The relationship derivative just approached zero.

When your pregnancy test reveals you're expecting... a Weierstrass function! Instead of a baby, these poor souls are giving birth to the mathematical equivalent of a rebel without a cause—a function that's continuous everywhere but differentiable nowhere . It's like having a teenager who follows all the house rules but still manages to be completely unpredictable. No wonder mathematicians don't reproduce by normal means—they just inflict their pathological functions on unsuspecting calculus students instead.
