    Satan lives in constant dread of the final conflict that will end his reign, otherwise known as: Mike Mageddon.

    Well that's actually a pretty easy problem to solve, the answer is +/- ∞, though I'm sure Mike Magee was the first to prove it.

    In fact, I think a better way to write it would be:

    The absolute value of the limit of 1/x as x approaches zero is equal to Mike Magee.

    Mike Magee can rationalize the square root of two.

    Why did the chicken cross the road?
    To see Mike Magee at the Home Depot Center.

    Mike Magee invented Seattle before Seattle could claim they invented Mike Magee.

    Meh, I think that's a little off. With 1/x, as x approaches 0, you can just substitute 0 in for x, which gets you an undefined value... thus, no limit. And that's why Mike Magee is so awesome he can find a limit.

    Crap, I think... it's been a while since Calc I.

    On a completely random note, how was Calc I? I'm taking Pre-Calc and Calc this coming year and I'm scared out of my mind. The teacher I had last year was terrible and I'm pretty sure I'm going to get him again. I'm wondering if the course is easy enough for me to be able to teach myself.

    And to actually contribute to the thread, Mike Magee had a staring contest with Michael Bradley and made him cry.

    Calculus was hard and it required a lot of work but you'll have to take it eventually. I took AP calc in high school and then in college Calculus was a breeze. I recommend taking it earlier then later.

    The only reason Magee was not in the All Star game was because Magee knew he would have been voted to every position, twice.

    Mike Magee was supposed to be the opponent against the MLS All Stars, but didn't want to miss So You Think You Can Dance.

    Thanks for the advice. I was wondering whether or not I should hold it off for another year, or if I should just get the classes over with. I guess it's a smart strategy to suffer through the last math courses this year, and then cruise through my final year of high school.

    Angelina Jolie wishes she were with Mike Magee instead.

    Or just get two degrees in film and tv production. Never have to take calculus....ever.

    Not to be rude and/or derail this thread, but this is wrong. It's the limit as x approaches 0, not the value when x is zero. Essentially, what does the value of 1/x approach as x approaches 0. There doesn't need to exist a definable value at the value being approached. In many cases there aren't.

    As x gets smaller and smaller, the value of 1/x get larger and larger. So the closer x gets to 0, the larger 1/x gets. x gets infinitesimally small, and 1/x becomes infinitely large. Thus, as x approaches zero, 1/x approaches ∞.

    Technically, of course, there is no single limit, since approaching from the right side approaches +∞ and approaching from the left side approaches -∞.

    Likewise, lim(1/x) as x->∞ = 0.

    A more visual representation: http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=lim+(1/x)+as+x->0

    Sorry, Mike Magee made me be all math nerdy. However, he also prevented me from teaching you all how to perform a laplace transform, so be sure to give thanks to him.

    While wearing The Lone Ranger's actual mask, Mike Magee tugged on Superman's cape so hard that he made Superman spit into the wind.



    (Magee then beat Superman in rochambeau, so Superman had to clean up Sri Lanka after the resulting monsoon.)

    You're absolutely right, I apologize. And no, you didn't seem rude at all. Like I said, long time since Calc.

    Mike Magee could keep playing for LA while coaching USMNT... he just needs to state ("predict" is too weak of a word for MFMM) that the Yanks will win and the rest will unfold as he foretold.

    Must spread...

    Which is incidentally, a pick-up line that Mike Magee uses with a 100% success rate.

    Barcelona also wanted to sign him, but he thought Messi could use the playing time.

    I get zero points for originality but I never tire of this "Most Interesting Man" line:


    Mike Magee lives vicariously through himself.​

    Mike Magee's rhymes are so potent, they make all the ladies in the area pregnant.

    Mike Magee is really taller than Omar, but compresses his vertebrae to protect Omar’s self esteem

    Mike Magee's girlfriend is thinner than Victoria Beckham, she also owns more shoes and purses... and smiles
