The mathematical horror! What we're witnessing is a clash between elementary arithmetic and advanced notation. In the equation, 2+2=4!!!, the triple exclamation marks aren't just excitement—they represent a multifactorial in mathematics.
For the uninitiated, 4!!! would be calculated as 4 × 1 = 4 (a triple factorial skips numbers). But the joke is that in regular math, 2+2=4, while our cartoon character is having an existential crisis thinking the exclamation points are changing the value.
Meanwhile, the bell curve shows that only the mathematical elite understand this is technically correct—just in a way that happens to match the elementary result. It's that beautiful coincidence where advanced math loops back around to give us the same answer as simple addition, leaving our yellow-shirted friend utterly bewildered.
