When a math teacher tries to teach limits by changing the numbers and the student just... copies the pattern! 🤦‍♂️

The first equation shows that as x approaches 8, the expression 1/(x-8) approaches infinity (a proper limit). But when the teacher tests the student with x approaching 5, instead of calculating the new limit correctly, the student just replaced the 8s with 5s and wrote "= 5" instead of infinity!

It's like teaching someone to cook by saying "add salt until it tastes good" and they respond by adding salt until the food literally becomes a salt crystal. Mathematical pattern recognition gone hilariously wrong!
