What rule does this break that would get it deleted? Or is it too much of a groaner

IMHO, none. Others may see it as political rather than utter satire. If people can't restrain themselves from making actual political comments we'll deal with that on individual bases.

Very humorous, until I got to last line .....

I dropped out before I got hooked...the only F I ever made in school was in algebra, so I gave it up and stuck to plain old general math, where I excelled with a C average!

Regards!

I did okay in algebra, B ish, not quite as well in Geometry. The only thing I ever got an F in was art. I can't draw/paint/sketch a picture of a polar bear in a blizzard.

Nomadkng - unfortunately the last line mimics many of our Canadian politicians' pronouncements that prove the old adage that "a politician only opens his/her mouth to change feet."

I agree, until the last line it was perfect.. I love "weapons of math instruction"

Reminds me of getting rapped on the knuckles with a ruler by my math teacher

LOL

That definitely belongs in the Louvre or the Guggenheim.

I can make a turkey using an outline of my hand, does that make me a natural born artist too?

I'd say so, those turkey images will be worth millions after you die....

As a scientist, I think the last line is funny.

They use obtuse logic and parallel reasoning that are tangential to the function, going full circle to get to the point, acute way of putting us on a diverging line that ends in a log jam. If Holder doesn't square with us, he'll get some pi in the eye.
