Comic Treat!

I didn't realise today was Happy 4.13-Math-Teachers-Should-Tell-A-Joke Day. Gave me quite a pleasant poke, since both my teachers never really put up a good laugh with the class before.

So there we were, playing Block Dude on our GDCs during amath tutorial on Mathematical Modelling, after finishing the worksheets that is. And it so happened that a question came into my mind so I cornered the man to voice my doubts.

Me: So, sir, how d'you get this thing to plot an absolute-value graph?

KY: Urhh...I'm not very...absolute about that.

Me: (wide-eyed) Er...okay.

KY: So...I'll find out for you and tell you next lesson, alright? (looking exceptionally enthusiastic at my retarded expression)

Me: Er...yeah sure. Thanks sir. (hides a grin, goes back to seat for more Block Dude)

How interesting.

The last lesson of the day found our class extremely hyperactive. Apparently, MS decided to match our frequency as she started teaching us about probability.

MS: So, a situation is said to be biased when the probability of an event happening is not equally likely.

Class: (nods)

MS: Okay. Let's say, if one fine day I were to just come into class, will the probability of a person getting scolded by me be equal for everyone else in class?

Class: NO. (laughter)

MS: Of course! Because some of you just REFUSE to hand in your homework, or you can say that I'm biased towards a few of you people!

Class: (rapturous laughter)

MS: Yeah I never said I was fair what. Look at me, I'm not, I'm dark-skinned! (points to arm)

-silence- (crickets chirp, crow flies over)

Class: (jeers, then even more rapturous laughter)

Ah what a day. Thank God for humour, again.
