That's Euler (Again)

Found at the intersection of Delta and Epsilon, this street corner is literally the smallest possible angle in mathematics! In calculus, the Greek letters δ (delta) and ε (epsilon) represent infinitesimally small values—they're basically the VIPs of limit proofs. When mathematicians want to say "give me a number so tiny it's almost zero but not quite," they reach for these symbols. This street sign is basically where "almost zero" meets "even closer to zero" and forms the ultimate mathematician's hangout spot.

Students thanking a long-dead French mathematician is peak calculus energy! Guillaume de l'Hôpital didn't just give us fancy wigs and aristocratic vibes—he gave us l'Hôpital's Rule , the emergency room for indeterminate limits (0/0 or ∞/∞) that's been rescuing desperate calculus students since 1696. Nothing says "mathematical hero worship" like thanking a guy who basically paid someone else (Johann Bernoulli) to figure out the math, slapped his name on it, and has been saving GPAs for 300+ years. The beard guy is all of us at 3 AM before the final, whispering gratitude to a portrait we've never actually seen before that moment.

The mathematical subtlety here is *chef's kiss*. The left guy states "6 > 1" (six is greater than one) - a perfectly normal, boring inequality that everyone agrees with. But the right figure counters with "6 ≥ 1" (six is greater than OR EQUAL TO one), which is technically also correct but implies the ridiculous possibility that 6 could equal 1. This is mathematically heretical! The bottom panels show our left character's growing internal rage at this unnecessary mathematical flexibility. It's the perfect encapsulation of how mathematicians lose their minds over technically correct but philosophically unsettling statements.

Look at this mathematical glow-up! Starting with boring old 2025, then realizing it's (20+25)² which equals 2025. But why stop there? The sum of first 9 natural numbers squared? That's 45², still 2025! And finally, the big brain move—the sum of the first 9 cubes equals 2025 too! It's like the universe conspired to make this year mathematically sexy. This is what happens when mathematicians get excited about New Year's instead of getting drunk like normal people. They find patterns that make them feel smarter than everyone at the party.

The equation x + 2 = x - 2 is mathematically impossible unless you're in some bizarre universe where 2 = -2. Yet here's someone proudly factoring (x-2)(x+2)=0 as if that's what the original equation asked for! It's like watching someone answer "What's your favorite color?" with a detailed explanation of photosynthesis. The commenter's smug "Easyyyy" at the end is the mathematical equivalent of confidently walking into a wall and declaring it was intentional. This is why math teachers drink.

The glasses come OFF when math gets simplified! First panel shows the intimidating square root of factorial expressions (√4! × 3!) which equals √24 × 6 = √144 = 12. Second panel? Just plain ol' 4 × 3 = 12. Same result, way less showing off. Mathematicians love making things needlessly complex to seem smart, then privately calculating it the easy way. It's like wearing a monocle to read the back of a cereal box.
