    “I don’t understand… this can only be true if u are imaginary”
    Much better joke this way XD

  2. Shafayet says:

    Hay it’s hilarious…feel bad for yah…hahahaha….<3 for everyone.

  3. Angel says:

    That violates the laws of math! :D

    @berkeley, @CaptainCanuck

    the equation is totally wrong. there’s even no assigned value for u and you wouldn’t know the value of i (i,-1,-i, 1) unless you solve it from the original equation which wasn’t given.

  4. Lolz..for me its so funny..

  5. S1lenz says:

    wow you guys are completely ruining the joke by over-analyzing the mathematics.

  6. I can’t believe I’m actually stepping in to comment on this. Complex numbers support no total ordering. The joke in the comic stands, despite whinging about values of u, moduli, etc.

  7. Seventhmagus says:

    i is neither positive nor negative, therefore any inequality with it would be invalid regardless of what the coefficient is because inequalities compare REAL values.

    damn this is awesome.
    she just freakin’ quit.
    nice one.

  9. Focks says:

    Interestingly…Emily2781 almost has the first few values of “e”. e = 2.718 approx

  10. Focks says:

    And if the skywalker fella was really a math freak…he should have seen the space between “i” and the “<" sign…especially when she had said "i think " twice in the previous two lines…

    I don’t see it as hit or miss. To me, it’s eather hilarious or just very funny. And I don’t mind a few ‘just very funny’ s in a row. =D
    Thanks and keep it up Luke!

  12. Jasper Winkel says:

    Doh, either

  13. ihateu says:

    That is brilliant, can’t believe I never noticed that one… you rock.
