Ever had that eureka moment in math only to discover some ancient Greek dude already nailed it while taking a bath? Nothing crushes the academic spirit quite like realizing your "breakthrough" was actually solved by someone with a quill pen and no electricity. The mathematical landscape is so thoroughly explored that finding virgin territory requires a PhD, seventeen energy drinks, and the kind of luck reserved for lottery winners. Meanwhile, Gauss probably figured it out as a toddler but didn't bother writing it down because it was "trivial." The ultimate mathematical walk of shame is citing a paper from 1873 that completely invalidates your six months of work.
