What are the worst jokes your Profs have told?

If 0.999... = 1.000.. then does ...999 = 100...?

>Is it possible to replace one (or more) of my teeth with a shark tooth?

why does 0.999... = 1

is any number with an infinite amount of repeating nines equal to the next whole number in the ones place?

does 314.999... = 315?

Anyone else genuinely feel sorry for brainlets?

Isn't basic statistics pretty much set in stone at this point? How is it that Andrew gelman can have a gigantic blog that criticises uses of statistics in science? I doubt he's talking crap, so how the hell is everyone else fucking up so much?
