This is like a big inside joke. You have to have seen this to get it:

If your in, then it’s pretty damn funny.

Sorry if links can’t be posted here (it’s Youtube, if that helps), but this is really why this cheque is funny:

Oh man, there’s a whole sound clip that needs to be posted with this. I nearly choked on my glass of water when i saw the cheque posted here.

I thought that was e to the 2 pi (the i looked like a 2)

Actually, i think (and i could be wrong), that it’s a check for .002 cents.
e to power ( i times pi) = -1
sum of all n of 1 / (2 to power n) = 1/2 + 1/4 + 1/8 + etc = 1 ( n starts at 1 not 0 )

i’m wondering if the check contains a typo… perhaps it’s supposed to be for 2 cents, not 2/10s of a cent?

e to power ( i times pi) = -1
sum of all n of 1 / (2 to power n) = 1 + 1/2 + 1/4 + 1/8 + etc = 2
grand total = $1.002
equivalently, 1 dollar and 2 tenths of a cent
