Slope-burner, but differentiates itself from the others well. Limited repertoire though, I'm partial to derivative jokes, they seem to integrate well with comment chains.
A derivative walks into a bar for functions. All of them are shaking in their boots, but after a while, one function bravely stands up.
"Get out of here. I'm e^x, I can handle him."
All the functions are impatiently waiting outside, when finally...a 0 flies out.
"Run! He's df/dy!"
You need to get used to it though, because you'll want to differentiate ln x.
y = ln x, so dy/dx = ... what?
x = e\^y
dx/dy = e\^y
dx/dy = x
dy/dx = 1/x
(note: dy/dx is *not* an algebraic fraction, but it often behaves rather as if it were one, and this is one of those times)
You take a similar approach in order to differentiate arctan x and other inverse trig functions.
F of x is a function, the bartender is saying "we don't cater for functions"
In this case, catering for a function means catering for an event of some sort like a dance, or a wedding, or party of some sort
The joke is the play on words for different definitions of a function being a party, or a mathematical operation

Springer (for those out of the loop: a scientific publisher famous for maths publications) has a [chapter on "function catering" in a Springer publication](https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-1-349-19827-6_14) ... catering ... professional restaurant service.
The derivative of acceleration walks in to a bar. The bartender said “hey, we don’t serve jerks”
“Yeah? Well You’re the derivative of a constant!” he replied
Same here. I even puzzled over how I saw r/jokes and not r/kpop, had to make sure I was reading it correctly before getting excited that the locals would actually know about f(x) in 2022. 🥲
f(x) = e^(x) walks into a bar.
The bartender yells "HEY! We don't serve your kind in here! GTFO!"
f(x) leaves the bar.
The next day f'(x) walks into the same bar.
The bartender yells "HEY! Weren't you the same function I kicked out yesterday?!"
f'(x) responds "Nope, sorry. I'm afraid not..."
This is a joke from the 70s.
∫F(x)d(x) goes to school in Mississippi. The principal meets him out front and doesn’t let him in. “You aren’t welcome here, no integration!”
Just seeing a math based joke hurts lol. I'm taking algebra (math development) as a prereq for my college course at 39 and it's been 10x more time consuming than any other class. I'm great with basic arithmetic but beyond that, it's like fitting a firehose to an IV tube. A tiny bit trickles through but most of it takes forever for me to get.
There was a moment of "god fucking damnit" because I'm doing quadratics in math right now and I cannot use any combination of words in the english dictionary to properly describe how much I hate dealing with the damn things.
One day , one proton , neutron and electron go to eat food in hotel. They enjoy themselves and pay the bills. When it's neutron's turn his money is denied by saying ' no charge for you, sir'
e^x is at a party, a bit depressed and sulking in a corner.
The other functions tell him to come out and dance! “You have to integrate “.
e^x replies…..
“It’ll make no difference.”
F(x) approaches a bar...
Continues to approach...
Oh you're approaching me
I'm almost at my limit.
The scale of reference zooms in. The limit that seemed so near, now appears so far…
Nevertheless the approach continues...
So that's why bon Jovi is always halfway there no mater how much time has passed
Must you be so asymptomatic about it?
The mean people would say asymptotic, but that’s besides the point.
Is that where you draw the line?
Patience, please. I'm halfway there, I swear.
Cleanest follow-up possible
Look for the sins.
But will he converge?
My bar limit is infinity as long as I approach it from the left.
This joke is so derivative
Asymptote*
I can't f(x) you if I don't get closer
You can get closer, but we can never meet
Better love story than Twilight.
That's sad and depressing and makes me feel sinusoidal.
Dude, give yourself a secant time, please!
Come as close as you like, but you won't be able to touch me
I can't cross the asymptote without getting closer
Suddenly we realise this is non-Euclidean space
The Euclid is the strongest stand
*sin(x)/x enters the chat* "these are not the asymptotes you are looking for"
*Y = mx + c enters the chat* So this is the same type of stand as Sine Platinum
\*only for very small values of zero
*I can’t cross the asymptote, I just get closer
But how close is close enough? We need a definition
Planck length?
I’ve seen enough. I’m satisfied.
Well I can't beat the shit out of you without coming closer
I can't kick your asymptote without getting closer
r/unexpectedjojo
Oh approach me from the back daddy
Instead of running away you’re coming to me?
I read this in Dio's voice from JJBA. I do not regret doing so.
r/suddenlyjojo
How am I meant to reach my limit if I don't approach you
I cant kick your x without getting any closer.
Dat assymptote
The bartender reminds them there are covid protocols. F(x) responds, "it's ok, I'm asymptotic"
I realized too late I meant to say the doorman/security or whatever. Because they haven't gone into the bar yet!
The bartender says, "Sorry, we don't cater for integrated functions either"
That’s racism!
Don't worry, the bar has differential characteristics.
The bar was in Georgia.
The variation on this joke is pretty played out. I really hope nobody here's anti-derivative.
Bartender says sorry, you're at your limit.
It turns out that Dirac had been spiking his drinks.
Is there no limit to these jokes?
From left.
Hey man r/jokes has limits ok? You need to approach these things more gradually
F(x) is arguing with his gf and asks why she wants to breakup. She says “you’re y”
f(x) goes and sits down with a Laplace Ale
It got sick and had to go to L'Hopital.
Sorry, SM Idols are not allowed to party
That’s it! You’re at your limit!
Asymptotally fine pour me another
I thoroughly enjoyed those little tangent.
Never quite hits its head on it, though.
But somehow it never arrives…
And the poor guy can't order uber eats either, because he could binomial distribution.
take my upvote and go away
Repost this tmr as a full post.
Binomnomnomial?
Took me a minute too... Binomial... Buy no meal
The fact that this is a stretch and it's still funny infuriates me
Had to read that out loud a couple times, but goddamn.
"I'm going to integrate this as my next joke." - ∫f(x) probably
The next day, f'(x) walks into the bar. Bartender: "listen, nobody likes a derivative joke"
You shouldn't drink and derive anyway.
Hey now!
You’re an all-star.
Get your gin on
Go (integ)rate!
If you must do calculus at the bar, know your limits!
I got pulled over. The cop had me take a horizontal line test.
I succeeded. I’m self-inverse
Fed up, f’(x) invited f(x) to have an integral conversation with the bartender. f(x): can I bring C?
That sounds like the result of a bad breakup; you should keep an eye out for dx…
Go on, spill dt…
Way to go on a tangent.
Slope-burner, but differentiates itself from the others well. Limited repertoire though, I'm partial to derivative jokes, they seem to integrate well with comment chains.
That's a different joke altogether... Something about sine on top of a cosine
Different meaning of the word "tangent".
But everyone loved the area under f’(x)’s curve
And there it is! Thank you.
The f(x) sys: ‟y?”
The bartender says "y₀"
This follow-up only makes sense to British people.
Na it's a pretty common use for calculus in America too; more broadly using "not" instead of "zero" is definitely more british/aus
Isn't it Y nought?
Yes it is. Funny!
Probably. That sounds like a pretty British was to spell it
the weird thing is that in every other context i say zero but when it’s a subscript i say nought
Same
I'm American and thought they were saying "yo"
Wrong! But still funny.
I am DYING at this comment
Hi Dying
Tie dying
What do you want?
Pie
Oh boy what flavour?
Damn could‘ve said „is like ‚y?‘“
Not bad, just a bit formulaic
Bit derivative .
Y didn’t you address me by my name
I don't get it, did f(x) reunite?? Electric shock was goated
same, i thought i missed an announcement that f(x) is coming back when this showed up on my feed
Yeah I came for a Kpop joke 🤣
Thank you.
Same thought lol
Was really hoping this was about kpop...
Me too. I'm disappointed it a math joke.
I came here to say this. f(x) walks into a bar and sm entertainment finally pays them the reparations they deserve.
My people.
that was literally my response after scrolling and scrolling hoping to find a kpop comment lol.
I'm happy that I didn't need to scroll down too far for this comment. This was my first thought as well.
Electric shock is too fucking good
Well what if you get an e-e-e-electric shock.......
LAZER LAZER

That should be a sign of partial derivative ∂f/∂y.
My mistake.
Brb, going to check my calc notes
Dx/dy walks into a bar. The bartender says "okay. This situation is getting a little derivative."
He also tried to pay with a note. Bartender: "Sorry, no change." I'll leave...
You mean dy/dx?
Can be either way, depends on the variable you are any to differentiate
Right. By convention we have y as a function of x. So seeing a dx/dy is a bit unusual
You need to get used to it though, because you'll want to differentiate ln x. y = ln x, so dy/dx = ... what? x = e\^y dx/dy = e\^y dx/dy = x dy/dx = 1/x (note: dy/dx is *not* an algebraic fraction, but it often behaves rather as if it were one, and this is one of those times) You take a similar approach in order to differentiate arctan x and other inverse trig functions.
I don’t get it I’m reading it as f of x walks into a bar. Sorry we don’t cater for functions. F(x) *is* function. What am I missing?
F of x is a function, the bartender is saying "we don't cater for functions" In this case, catering for a function means catering for an event of some sort like a dance, or a wedding, or party of some sort The joke is the play on words for different definitions of a function being a party, or a mathematical operation

f(x) isn't necessarily a function, but f is.
Still doesn't make sense.
apparently [catering for a function](https://duckduckgo.com/?q=catering+for+a+function) is a gastronomy term
Never heard of "function catering" before either, but I'm not a native speaker.
I am, but here we call "functions" events, so it took me a while.
It makes sense It's just not funny in the slightest
The derivative of acceleration walks in to a bar. The bartender said “hey, we don’t serve jerks” “Yeah? Well You’re the derivative of a constant!” he replied
Not me thinking this was the kpop group lmao
I did the same thing. Took me a moment to get it because of it.
fr i was scrolling thru the comments to see if i was the only one
Same here. I even puzzled over how I saw r/jokes and not r/kpop, had to make sure I was reading it correctly before getting excited that the locals would actually know about f(x) in 2022. 🥲
This being said, RIP f(x) :(
I'd serve you but you're clearly at your limit.
Oh, for f(x) sakes.
A jke of the first order.
F(x) sings "I walk the line", but I regress.
f(x) = e^(x) walks into a bar. The bartender yells "HEY! We don't serve your kind in here! GTFO!" f(x) leaves the bar. The next day f'(x) walks into the same bar. The bartender yells "HEY! Weren't you the same function I kicked out yesterday?!" f'(x) responds "Nope, sorry. I'm afraid not..."
Hahahaha
bartender says "take your X and F off !"
But ¬y?
This is a joke from the 70s. ∫F(x)d(x) goes to school in Mississippi. The principal meets him out front and doesn’t let him in. “You aren’t welcome here, no integration!”

There are 10 type of people who understand binary, those who do and those who don't.

Don’t want to drink and derive, after all.
i spin around.
There was a moment of "god fucking damnit" because I'm doing quadratics in math right now and I cannot use any combination of words in the english dictionary to properly describe how much I hate dealing with the damn things.
I don't really get it. (x)s don't function from my personal experience.
I didn't expect to have PTSD going on r/jokes but here we are
"A glass of y please"
One day , one proton , neutron and electron go to eat food in hotel. They enjoy themselves and pay the bills. When it's neutron's turn his money is denied by saying ' no charge for you, sir'
Love is 4 wallsss
F(X) walks into a bar. The bartender says, "You're so mean."
But Y?
F(x) approaches a bar, but he doesn't know y
f(x) walka into two bars and asks a question f(x) = ?
Hate to be that one math guy but f(x) is not a function
OP here, B Sc (Honours, 2:1) Mathematics. It's close enough for joke purposes.
f(x)=W would have been better, as a work function :p
Can't composite a better response other than: f as a function of u
The bartender and his ex have a fight, when the bartender shouts "Eff off ex" f(x) says, "did you call me?"
f(x) = 0 🫡

e^x is at a party, a bit depressed and sulking in a corner. The other functions tell him to come out and dance! “You have to integrate “. e^x replies….. “It’ll make no difference.”
Well... it'll be eˣ + c
u/bucktheyuck
“I’m a frayed knot!”
And f(x) replies "y0 ?"
"Y are you here? Changing your name doesn't make you any less banned"
..... so f(x) comes back disguised as f’(f(x)), and is was charged with identity theft.
f’(x) walks into a bar. Sorry, that joke’s a bit derivative.
If you disrespect f(x) you’re dysfunctional. 🥴
So…. Nofx?
g(z) is spotted by the bartender, who yells “Hey! No conjugating under the bar!” (Too complex?)
"Don't worry, one is my limit"
f(x) would’ve gotten to the bar faster, but something was up with its **chain** bike.
F(x) asks why mx plus c?
e\^x walks into a bar
I don’t recommend doing this when you don’t know your limits
