The Constant That Haunts Your Dreams

The mathematical tragedy where 60.6% of people think -3² = 9 instead of -9. Order of operations isn't a popularity contest, folks. This is why peer review exists – to save us from ourselves. In mathematics, the negative sign applies after the exponent, so -3² means -(3²) = -(9) = -9. But hey, at least democracy works great for choosing pizza toppings... just not for evaluating mathematical expressions.

Behold! The mathematical unicorn—an integral sign equals two horizontal lines! That's literally the definition of integration: finding the area under a curve by summing infinitesimal rectangles. The creator has written the fundamental theorem of calculus in its purest, most elegant form. Every calculus student dreams of such pristine notation. The sheer satisfaction when your messy integration actually simplifies to something this clean... *chef's kiss* It's the mathematical equivalent of hitting the bullseye while blindfolded and spinning.

This math meme is pure calculus comedy gold! It shows Gumball in three forms representing the same natural logarithm written different ways: First panel: Regular Gumball = ln(x) - the standard natural log notation we all know Second panel: Super Saiyan Gumball = log e (x) - same thing but with the base explicitly shown Third panel: MEGA BRAIN Gumball = log(x)/log(e) - the final boss form using the change of base formula! They're mathematically identical expressions getting progressively more unnecessarily complex. It's like meeting someone and saying "Hello" vs "Greetings, carbon-based life form, I wish to initiate verbal exchange protocols!"

The eternal struggle of research mathematicians! People think math is just about calculating big numbers, when actual mathematicians are busy proving theorems about abstract spaces, developing new theories, and exploring mathematical structures that have nothing to do with arithmetic. It's like asking a neurosurgeon to put a band-aid on your paper cut. Sure, they could do it, but that's not exactly utilizing their expertise. Most research mathematicians haven't manually multiplied large numbers since high school - they'd reach for a calculator just like everyone else!

The scientific calculator civil war has begun! Someone's circled all the advanced function buttons—you know, the ones that separate the math wizards from the "I just need to add these numbers" crowd. The punchline? "These people vote." Translation: The same folks who think logarithms and trigonometry are useless are making decisions about our future! Meanwhile, engineers are having heart palpitations just looking at this mathematical blasphemy. Fun fact: Those "useless" buttons helped us build rockets, design computers, and analyze quantum physics. But sure, who needs x² when you've got fingers to count on, right? *twitch*

Boolean logic, but make it spooky. The creator has brilliantly illustrated logic gates using jack-o'-lantern Venn diagrams. The OR gate shows features in either circle, AND shows only what's in the overlap, XOR displays what's in either but not both, NOR shows nothing at all, NAND displays everything except the overlap, and XNOR shows only what's identical in both circles. Computer scientists don't get invited to many Halloween parties, and now we know why they spend their time making pumpkin logic diagrams instead.
