#CHICKEN MATH THE NEW MATH PC#

How can you drop an egg six feet without breaking it? Who tells the best math jokes on the farm? Just enjoy them, and please don’t analyze me. Similarly, don’t waste your time trying to figure out why I’m posting a bunch of jokes about chickens and eggs. Ours is not to reason why just invert and multiply. You may have received the following advice about dividing fractions without thinking about it: Please rotate your phone 90°, and try again. If you’re cold and there’s a right triangle nearby, stand in the corner opposite the hypotenuse. The coach desperately needed him for the big game on Saturday, so the professor agreed to an oral exam. The star college football player was taking a math exam. “Damn,” says the doctor, “some asshole has my pen!” Conclusion: A thermometer falls at the speed of light.Ī doctor walks into a meeting, and a nurse asks why he has a rectal thermometer behind his ear. He observed that both objects reached the ground at the same time. What did the thermometer say to the graduated cylinder?Ī scientist dropped a thermometer and a candle from the roof of a building. To a greater or lesser degree, some of the following jokes are funny. Carrots, to a greater degree mint chocolate chip ice cream, to a lesser degree. On a lighter note, if it looks like a chicken and clucks and counts like a chicken, you never know: it might be a mathemachicken.I once read an article that said, “To a greater or lesser degree, everything tastes like chicken.” Well, that’s true, but it’s also true that everything tastes like broccoli, to a greater or lesser degree.

If you were a chicken, would you feel privileged or pissed off by the way your name is being used, abused, or misused in school textbooks and workbooks?ĭo you think it’s long overdue that you and your feathery friends and foes sue the publishers and the Ministries of Education around the world for showing disrespect or even disdain towards the chicken community? Tens of thousands of brain-friendly and unfriendly math questions on chickens and eggs around the world make their way into canned and creative math textbooks every year, which makes millions of math-anxious students worldwide to “chicken out” to avoid being given all kinds of labels by peers and parents for their oft-irrational fear or failure to solving them. Be it the use of their heads, eyes, legs, or eggs, the chicken remains the animal of choice among mathematical problem posers. Probably no animal is more popular than the chicken in math word problems-even the beloved bunny comes a distant second. Since the war, the import of these bigger and cheaper eggs seems to have come to a halt.

I recall that some supermarkets had promotions like “Buy One, Get One Free” or “Buy Two, Get One Free” to lure locals to try Ukrainian eggs.

Organic Chicken for the Rich & Wealthyĭuring Singapore’s “circuit breaker”-a PC term for “lockdown”-we’re blessed with white eggs flown from Ukraine. In fact, even before the ban, the prices of chicken eggs were already skyrocketing in supermarkets, which sounds more like a case of synchronized profiteering strategies among exporters, distributors, and supermarkets than anything else, but after some Opposition members had denounced the unjustified inflated prices, things have since stabilized more or less. Įarly this month, the world read about Malaysia’s decision to ban the export of chickens (but not eggs) to its frenemy neighbor Singapore. Not too long ago, in Organic Chicken Rice for the Rich, I hatched up a meme and offered some math questions on organic and kampong chickens.

Was it the aftermath of setting or solving an unhealthy number of word problems on chickens or eggs, or both?

I can’t recall what prompted me to coin “mathemachicken” three-odd years ago.
