0136: "Science Fair"

Postby xkcd » Wed Aug 02, 2006 6:05 am UTC

Oh yeah in case I forgot to mention, this comic is not intended for those offended by math or sex.





Actually, screw that. Yes, it is.

Also, the mouseover text on this one was one of the few times I laughed out loud reading something I'd written.

Oh so utterly brilliant. Alas, my physics paper on ejaculate trajectories was received about as well (though not by ex-vice presidents).

Really though. Funniest thing I've seen in weeks.

I noticed you conducted a Laplace transform. Tell me: where are her poles and zeros, and how might I (in an odd reversal) shift the poles into the right half plane?

see i never thought of cunnilingus to be more of a science or maybe even an art than a math though my math teacher loved to spout that science is just collections of data put into hypothesis then proven therefore science is math.

Wow! First new post in nine months!

Anyway, this one made me fall out of my chair at work.

Then I sent it my boyfriend to see if he could glean any pointers. I'm subtle that way.

does anyone notice something familiar with the bottommost graph? the one to the right, it kinda looks like the trigonometric graphy of y = tan x
