The Strongest Axiom

When mathematicians go shopping for axioms, they're picky customers! The meme shows someone asking for "the strongest axiom you have," only to be told that 0=1 is "too strong." This is mathematical humor at its finest. In mathematics, an axiom is a statement we accept as true without proof. But if we accepted 0=1 as an axiom, it would break everything. You could literally prove anything! Want to prove unicorns exist? Easy with 0=1! Want to prove your advisor will finally approve your thesis? Just use 0=1! Mathematicians call this "the principle of explosion" - once you allow a contradiction like 0=1 into your system, the entire logical framework collapses faster than my motivation after realizing I've been using the wrong formula for three hours straight.
