Proof By Big Number
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!

When Combinatorics Makes The Universe Look Small
When you realize combinatorial math produces numbers so ridiculously large that even the estimated 10 80 atoms in the observable universe seems like pocket change. Mathematicians casually calculating 52! for a deck of cards while physicists have an existential crisis in the corner. It's the ultimate "well, actually..." moment when someone thinks astronomy has the biggest numbers.
