Math on Craigslist. Or not.

Michael over at God Plays Dice had a post in August that referenced the site You Suck at Craigslist, a blog with daily posts that feature real Craigslist ads that are too funny not to mock.  And it has turned into a fabulous time waster, not just for us but for all our students who are now addicted to the site  (Thanks Michael!)

But here’s the best part:  it features math on a regular basis.  For example:

• Addition in 2+2=5 and One, two, three, …ummmm….
• Area in  Not.A.Lion
• Probability and Statistics in It’s a Crock, all right.
• Proof Techniques on The dishwasher hates children, though.

But wait, there’s more!

• Perl on Glinder? I hardly know ‘er!
• String Theory on Whatever you do, don’t cross the …drawers.

So reading this is almost…almost…like studying.
Almost.

As it happens, the author, drmk, has a day job as a university professor Somewhere.
