Everyone has different skills, gifts, abilities and interests. Those differing skill sets and interests are very apparent in school. Some people have a terrible time with particular subjects, while others excel at them. Math is one of those subjects that people either love or hate. Some seemed to have a natural talent for numbers and were able to pick up mathematical concepts quickly, but some had massive problems with math. No matter how much work or effort they put into learning the subject, it was always a struggle.
Well, math doesn’t always have to lead to anger and frustration. In a clip on YouTube, one comedian, Don McMillian, showed that math can actually be pretty hilarious. Through a series of math problems that are incredibly relevant to society today, Don will have you doubling over with laughter.
He uses several well-known companies, such as eBay, Facebook and Twitter, to make some extremely valid points and hysterical jokes. His logic and formulas in his jokes are easy to follow, even for those of us (me included) who might be mathematically challenged at times.
Throughout the clip, Don has the audience laughing at his witty and terribly funny jokes. As every good joke does, Don’s hysterical jokes all have a lot of truth to them. Everyone can easily relate and understand exactly what he’s talking about and knows that, for the most part, he is 100 percent correct.
Don, an engineer who loves all things numbers, said that one of his goals when getting into comedy was to make math fun. This short five-minute clip proves that Don has achieved that goal.
Who wouldn’t want to immediately run out, pick up a math textbook, or sign up for a math class after watching this hysterical clip?
Proverbs 17: 22 “A glad heart makes a healthy body, but a crushed spirit makes the bones dry.”
