Let no man say I don't love the hell out of Amber.

Me: Damn, the supernumiaries are tough right about now.

Ambs: supernumerary?

Ambs: like the heads of numbers?

Ambs: corner office numbers... like i?

Me: The things above the numbers... !@#$%^&*() and their best friends ~_+.

Ambs: ...makes -sense- but is less fun

Ambs: I'm imagining pi in a cape

Me: Hahaha!

Ambs: lots of ways to be super

Me: Flying around, calculating curcumfrences for the poor and downtrodden?

Ambs: and education, a big part of being a superhero. He wanders into the Counting numbers school and talks to all the kids about not doing drugs

Ambs: of course, you have to watch out, he may be a universal constant but he's also irrational

Me: Yeah, but if he keeps little numbers from taking exponents and doing unsafe sums, then it's all for the best.

Ambs: and we just about died on nerdiness

  1. Is Amber really Eve Astrid Andersson?

  2. I kind of imagine this is how xkcd gets written. Except it's been written by people who know a hell of a lot more about math.

  3. Oh man, would that Amber really WERE EveAnder. Not that I don't enjoy Ambs as is, but it would be a feather in my cap to be hobnobbing with the original Web Babe.

    Also, it brings my heart great joy to know her website still exists, albeit in a much different form.
