When one receives fellatio while completing a derivative of the first degree or higher.

My math teacher gave me the best oral derivative for this problem.

viral derivative

something that is not necessarily popular originally yet rapidly gains popularity due to the fact of being referenced to something else that is already popular

A Star Wars version of Gangam Style being a viral derivative received an enormous 2M+ views within a week, immediately after the original Gangam Style video hit the world record of YouTube views and likes.

derivative

1. In calculus, the slope of a function at a point. It is found by taking the limit of (f(x + h) - f(x)) / ((x + h) - x) where h (also seen as delta x) approaches 0.

Notations for a derivative include dy/dx and f'(x) (f prime of x)

2. The mathematical incarnation of Satan Himself

1.
f(x) = 3x^3 - 4x^2 + 2x -6 //function
f'(x) = 9x^2 - 8x + 2 //first derivative
f''(x) = 18x - 8 //second derivative
f'''(x) = 18 //third derivative

2. Teacher: Today, we're going to do derivatives
Math book, as ceiling clouds over and turns red: MAY THE DEMONIC ARMIES OF HELL MARCH ACROSS YOUR MORTAL PLANE, CREATION CHAOS AND DESTRUCTION AND DRINKING THE BLOOD OF THE INNOCENT AND-
Math teacher: Change of plans! We're going to rock out to Zeppelin and have a LAN party on the school's sweet new laptops for the next hour!
Students: Hooray!

third derivative

a calculus term also called "the jerk"; it is a nerdy way to tell someone off.

person one: "you smell like feet."

person two: "Golly, person one, you can be such a third derivative."

i wish you were a derivative

The funniest pick up line ever made. It works really well, as I've used it on several occasions. The most notable of which was when i got with this really hot chick named Steve.

I wish you were a derivative so I could lie tangent to your curves.

derivatize

to take the derivative of

Person 1: Hey, how do you solve this?
Person 2: "3x^2 + 5x +1"?
Person 1: Yeah
Person 2: Well, if you derivatize it, you get "6x + 5".

Definition of a Derivative

Use the power rule dum dum

Jimmy: Mr. Herrig said to use the definition of a derivative to solve the question.
Anna: That’s for losers, just use the power rule
