Many of them are IMHO really good and extremly funny (your mileage may vary, though).</p> <p>My favorite few:</p> <blockquote><p>Two male mathematicians are in a bar. The first one says to the second that the average person knows very little about basic mathematics. The second one disagrees, and claims that most people can cope with a reasonable amount of math.</p> <p>The first mathematician goes off to the washroom, and in his absence the second calls over the waitress. He tells her that in a few minutes, after his friend has returned, he will call her over and ask her a question. All she has to do is answer one third x cubed.</p>
