Math Puns to Make Your Pi Day

Check out some of the Smoke Signal‘s favorite math lines to spice up your Pi Day!

 

“I got her number in chemistry class; now these are significant digits!”

“No, I won’t help you find your X, and don’t ask me Y either.”

“3.14 percent of sailors are pi-rates.”

“Deaf mathematicians communicate through sine language.”

“I strongly dislike math; however, I am partial to fractions.”

“Math puns are so boring. Calculus jokes are too derivative, trigonometry jokes are too graphic, and algebra jokes are usually formulaic. But I guess the occasional statistics joke is an outlier.”

“People say we’re irrational, but it’s because of that that we only see our infinite possibilities.”

“What do mathematicians put on their fireplaces? Natural logs.”
