Jason's 19th birthday

Jason -

Its your birthday. You are at the end of a hard week, in the middle of a hard semester. The good news - you have a party tonight to help you wind down. Better news - if you wake up in time, it is the putnam competition.

Even better news - I put together a random collection of math cartoons to celebrate your birthday!

Some cartoons reference math without requiring any more than a passing familiarity.


Some delve into both math and philosophy



Some demand an in depth knowledge to understand why it is funny in the first place.


And in the best of all cartoons - math is raised to an art form.


Happy Birthday Jason

- love dad.
