The mathematical rebellion we never knew we needed! This meme brilliantly roasts complex numbers with the energy of someone who stayed up all night trying to solve an equation only to discover imaginary solutions.
Complex numbers are that friend who shows up to the party with unnecessarily elaborate explanations for everything. "Yes, i² = -1" sounds like the start of a bad math pickup line, and those multiple representations? Pure mathematical flexing.
The "3i apples" bit is pure gold—because nothing says "practical math" like ordering an imaginary quantity of fruit. And don't get me started on being "complex number" years old... that's just what mathematicians say when they don't want to admit they're getting older.
Mathematicians invented an entire number system just because they couldn't handle negative square roots. Talk about overengineering a solution!
