The pandemic's greatest mathematical breakthrough! Four people arranged in a perfect square, all exactly 1.5m apart... except wait—that's geometrically impossible! If you've got a square with people at each corner, the diagonal distance between them would be 2.12m (thanks, Pythagoras!). This brilliant social distancing diagram fails spectacularly at basic math. Whoever created this safety poster probably thought they aced geometry, but instead became the poster child for why we need to pay attention in math class. The one brown figure is probably thinking, "I didn't sign up to bend spacetime today."
