The mathematical trauma is real with this one. Our poor student starts off confident—squares are 2D? Easy peasy! Lines are 1D? Sure, whatever. But then comes the Koch snowflake with its fractal dimension of ln(4)/ln(3) ≈ 1.26, and suddenly their brain short-circuits.
Welcome to the mind-bending world of fractal geometry, where dimensions aren't whole numbers and your intuition goes to die. It's like telling someone water is wet, then showing them non-Newtonian fluids and watching their existential crisis unfold in real time.
That final panel is every math student who thought they understood reality until fractals came along and said "hold my recursive beer."
