The perfect mathematical dad joke doesn't exi— Oh wait, here it is! This meme brilliantly plays on the fact that L'Hôpital's Rule (a calculus method for evaluating limits) wasn't actually discovered by Guillaume de l'Hôpital but by Johann Bernoulli. L'Hôpital essentially paid Bernoulli for his mathematical discoveries and published them under his own name. The gray character's initial smug "of course" followed by angry disappointment when corrected is peak mathematical justice. Historians of mathematics have been making this exact face since 1696.
