Discrete math Memes

Nothing humbles the overconfident math whiz quite like university math progression. You start thinking you're hot stuff because you could solve for x in high school, then linear algebra shows up with its fancy matrices and vector spaces. Just when you think you've adjusted, calculus and discrete math arrive like the final boss with a baseball bat covered in spikes and a mask of pure terror. That confident "I was at the top of my class" energy evaporates faster than acetone in a poorly supervised lab. The mathematical hierarchy of pain is real, folks—and it cares not for your high school valedictorian speech.

Someone skipped their discrete mathematics class to take that shower. In math, a spectrum is just a set with some structure - it doesn't automatically create a ranking system where someone gets to wear the "Gayest Person Alive" crown. It's like claiming there must be one person who's the "most purple" because colors exist on a spectrum. The mathematician swooping in with "partial ordering" is that friend who corrects your grammar at parties but is technically right. This is what happens when shower thoughts collide with actual mathematical rigor - suddenly your profound revelation gets absolutely demolished by set theory.

Every mathematician just cringed collectively. This mapping between letters is the kind of chaotic relationship my grad students try to pass off as "valid functions" on their problem sets. The red lines connecting letters from "STRANGER DANGER" to "TRANSGENDER" create a many-to-many relationship that would make set theory professors weep into their coffee. In proper math, each input should map to exactly one output for a function, and for a bijection, it should be one-to-one AND onto. This disaster? It's like watching someone solve equations by throwing darts at a number line. Next time you want to make connections, please consult a discrete mathematics textbook first.
