I Will Derive, and Other Favorites

I record G4’s Attack of the Show every day, but since I’m a grown man, I don’t watch the full episodes. Instead, each weekend, I skim through them all, watching mostly just the scenes with Olivia Munn (don’t judge me) or Blair Butler.

For those who don’t watch, here’s Olivia Munn as Lesbionic Woman. If Bionic Woman had been this good, there’d be a second season.

This week, they showed the gay-geekiest thing I’ve seen in a while: I Will Derive, a calculus-themed parody of the Gloria Gaynor hit.

Of course, that led me into an Internet K-hole, so submitted for your approval are my top picks in the first annual Math-Themed Music Parodies Probably by High School Students for Class Projects Awards or MtMPPHSSCP Awards, for short.
