Who Would Be On The Mount Rushmore Of Mathematicians?

The mathematical hot take that would make your algebra professor have a meltdown! Claiming associativity (where (a×b)×c = a×(b×c)) is the same as commutativity (where a×b = b×a) is like saying a sandwich is just a burger flipped sideways. Pure mathematical blasphemy that would get you banned from every math department worldwide! It's the equivalent of telling a chef that baking and frying are basically the same thing because both make food hot. Math nerds everywhere just felt a disturbance in the force!

Look at these two scientific copycats in their natural habitat! Newton's over there with his gravitational force equation (F = G m₁m₂/d²) thinking he's all original, while Coulomb's giving him the side-eye because his electrostatic force equation (F = k q₁q₂/r²) is basically the same formula with different letters! 😂 It's the ultimate "can I copy your homework?" moment in physics history! Except Coulomb came along nearly 100 years later, so it's more like "I'll just change it enough so the teacher won't notice." The universe really does have a formula fetish for inverse square relationships!

The mathematical massacre happening here is just *chef's kiss*. Someone claims 1¢ per second would be better than $2.5 million, and our confident mathematician declares it's "1.3 billion every other week" without a single calculation actually working out. Let's do the real math: 1¢/second = 60¢/minute = $36/hour = $864/day = ~$6,048/week. That's roughly 0.0000046 billion every other week. Our friend was only off by a factor of 280,000! The best part? The honest admission at the end: "i just thought of the biggest number i know and commented it." Peak internet mathematics in action!

This is what happens when fractions meet fast food marketing. The 1/3 pound burger failed because Americans thought 1/4 was bigger (since 4 > 3, obviously). Then when someone tries to explain basic math with "1/3 > 1/4" and ".33 > .25," the response is "what are those signs?" This is why STEM educators drink heavily after work. The denominator paradox strikes again - where the bigger number on the bottom somehow makes people think the fraction is smaller. And they say math anxiety isn't real.

Nothing says "Merry Christmas" like hanging spherical coordinates on your tree! While normal people decorate with reindeer and candy canes, mathematicians and physicists are out here turning holiday decorations into a calculus final exam. This ornament perfectly captures the moment when r, θ, and φ come together in three-dimensional harmony—because nothing spreads holiday cheer quite like remembering that one nightmare problem from multivariable calculus that made you question your life choices. The perfect gift for that special someone who'd rather integrate over a sphere than sing carols.

Mathematicians be like "regular numbers are too mainstream, let's break reality!" This 4D math system is basically what happens when quaternions and infinity have a forbidden love child. The equation S = a + bi + (c + di)k looks innocent until you see e^k = 0 . That's mathematical blasphemy! Making 1/0 finite? Next they'll tell us parallel lines meet for coffee every Tuesday. This is what mathematicians do when they get bored - invent number systems that make calculus professors wake up in cold sweats.
