Greater than Memes

The eternal battle of mathematical notation! On the left, we have the "greater than" symbol (>) looking all confident in red. On the right, its cooler cousin "much greater than" (≫) flexing in blue. It's basically the difference between saying "I'm taller than you" versus "I'm waaaaay taller than you." Mathematicians fighting over notation is like watching nerds argue about which Star Trek captain is better, except with more chalk dust and coffee stains. Choose your fighter wisely—your entire mathematical street cred depends on it!

The mathematical subtlety here is *chef's kiss*. The left guy states "6 > 1" (six is greater than one) - a perfectly normal, boring inequality that everyone agrees with. But the right figure counters with "6 ≥ 1" (six is greater than OR EQUAL TO one), which is technically also correct but implies the ridiculous possibility that 6 could equal 1. This is mathematically heretical! The bottom panels show our left character's growing internal rage at this unnecessary mathematical flexibility. It's the perfect encapsulation of how mathematicians lose their minds over technically correct but philosophically unsettling statements.
