The calculus crossover nobody expected! The meme shows the epsilon-delta definition of limits—the mathematical equivalent of saying "I'm not touching you" while holding your finger millimeters from someone's face. For any positive ε, no matter how tiny, there exists a δ where all points within δ of x are within ε of the limit. It's basically mathematicians being unnecessarily precise about something approaching a value without ever actually reaching it. Calculus students everywhere just felt a collective shudder.
