Not a pun, but still cute:

Pedant alert!

BODMAS (PEMDAS to our American readers) tells you that lines two and three combine to give 6/7, so the sum does not work. Add "All" at the start of line 3 which will imply brackets (parentheses) - and it scans.

You're welcome.

Partially correct the way the formula is shown is right but the way it’s written is wrong. (Could be fixed adding “all” divided by seven
Okay... There's all kinds of things wrong with what you just said.

Yes, I suppose I could agree with you ... but then we'd both be wrong, wouldn't we?

If you say so. My eyes just glazed over -- just like they did in high school.

After the gazintas I'm done.

I always liked the 'sunuvabitch' ones:
Little Johnny was heard by his mother reciting his homework:  “Two plus two, the sunuvabitch is four; four plus four, the sunuvabitch is eight; eight plus eight, the sunuvabitch is … ”

“Johnny !” shouted his mother.  “Watch your language!  You’re not allowed to use swearwords.”

“But, Mom,” replied the boy, “that’s what the teacher taught us, and she said to recite it out loud till we learned it.”

Next day Johnny’s mother went right into the classroom to complain.  “Oh, heavens!” said the teacher.  “That’s not what I taught them.  They’re supposed to say, ‘Two plus two, the sum of which is four.’ ”

It's called 'Skytyping'. In this case, five planes equipped with computer-controlled smoke generators flew in a line-abreast formation while a master computer told the on-board computers when to turn on/turn off the smoke, like an old dot-matrix printer, to give us "Pi in the Sky".

Here's a link to it, along with a quick clip of the team in action printing a message.

Judging by the long row of motor-scooters beside this tree I'd say it is somewhere in Asia. Sri Lanka, maybe? It appears to be intentional grown that way, and I suspect with some kind of large scale "bonsai" technique.
