The mathematical hypocrisy is strong with this one. Our bearded friend dismisses the Basel problem (Σ 1/n² = π²/6) as "made up nonsense" but gleefully accepts the geometric series (Σ (1/2)ⁿ = 1). Classic case of mathematical cherry-picking—rejecting a proven result from 1734 while embracing another equally valid infinite series. The selective skepticism is what happens when you only attend half the lectures in advanced calculus. Next week he'll probably argue that imaginary numbers aren't real.
