Complex Memes

That integral is the mathematical equivalent of being asked to defuse a bomb with a spork. Nobody actually solves these by hand—we just stare at it until the deadline approaches, then type it into Wolfram Alpha and pretend we knew the answer all along. Even professors secretly struggle with these monstrosities. They just assign them because misery loves company and tenure means never having to say "I can't solve this either."

When your date says "let's get freaky" but you're a mathematician with different priorities! This meme perfectly captures that moment when casual conversation meets advanced algebraic topology. The question about Hodge classes on complex projective manifolds is basically the mathematical equivalent of bringing calculus to a knife fight. It's like saying "You think THAT'S wild? Hold my coffee while I casually drop some graduate-level algebraic geometry that would make even Fields Medalists sweat." Pure mathematicians don't flirt—they just drop increasingly obscure theorems until someone faints from intellectual exhaustion.
