Alright, I have no idea what this means.
I'm not sure about the top one. He could be saying everyone is living a life of sin (like 402 said).
The bottom one is definitely saying he lives an odd life because that's literally an odd function. i.e.
f(-x) = -f(x) for all x
From the placement of the axis in the first one that function is odd too.
First function is a sine wave, commonly written sin().
Second function is a cubic ("square"?) polynomial.
Joke:
Everyone else's life: Sin.
My life: Square.
Edit: as pointed out, it's not really square
I got "everyone else's life has ups and downs, mine is just up, up, UP!" from the graphs 🤷♂️
Same, i thought it was about having a manic episode or something
It's not square, though, but cubed. x^2 looks very different. And 2 isn't an odd number (see title.)
But if the lower diagram was x^2 (and the axis were labelled correctly) I'd say that's a proper joke 😃
Haha yeah it was the only way I could make sense of it...
I like your joke better 😆 However... If the x-axis was time, you'd have to explain the negative part to me. Or stop at least at -9 months...
The axis aren't labeled properly. That's likely why we can't make sense of the diagrams.
Everyone elses life oscillates over time between positive and negative... OP's life's Y is X cubed. And it somehow contains big blue dots on the whole numbers... They consider that odd. And I'd agree.
