Base 7 Memes

The genius of this joke is in the number systems! When asked for 7³, our stick figure friend confidently answers "1000" - which is technically correct... in base 7! In decimal (our normal counting system), 7³ equals 343. But in base 7, that same value is written as 1000. It's like answering a question in Spanish when everyone else is speaking English and somehow still being right. The little subscript 7 is the subtle flex that makes mathematicians giggle uncontrollably while everyone else scratches their heads wondering why math people are so weird.
