wonkytableleg Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 Hi all, My brother is getting married next week and he and his wife to be are school teachers. They had a bit of a theme going on the wedding invites etc that was the square root of R + V = "heart shape" and I would like to turn this around in a clever maths way of taking the piss. Not to clever though as many guest including myself wouldn't understand!! Can anyone help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phi for All Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 Are they both math-only teachers? Could you open the speech up to other education subjects? You could start with their "History" together, how the "Chemistry" came about, and how you're not allowed to talk about how they study "Physics" or make "Music" together. Maybe end with the line, "Today, I'm not subtracting a brother, I'm adding a sister, and I wish them happiness without division, and as much multiplication as they can handle."

wonkytableleg Posted July 9, 2015 Author Share Posted July 9, 2015 Wow I like that last line you should have been the best man!! haha They both teach primary school Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phi for All Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 They both teach primary school So it would work if you threw in some other subjects. Maybe not Physics and Chemistry for primary school, but History and Music work. There's a good joke in there somewhere about giving grades to each other. Could get bawdy, or you could mention how they'll probably grade for household chores, cooking, clothing choices, etc. "I know for a fact my brother is going to flunk bathroom cleaning". There will never be a pencil around their house when you need one. Irony, that. On the other hand, before they have their own kids, they'll have a refrigerator full of artwork. Of course, the best thing about all of this is that, as they're teaching our children now, they'll also be passing along educator genes to their own children. Teaching evolution as they evolve more teachers! Wow I like that last line It's yours. The Best Man should get a gift. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phi for All Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 You could joke that your brother and sister-in-law are honeymooning at the Pritt Glue Factory, or The Wax Crayon Museum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unity+ Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 You could make the joke that their union makes the golden ratio as it is a perfect match? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
