Math progression Memes

From exponents to the depths of mathematical hell! The progression is brilliant - we start with friendly arithmetic (3³, 2²), move to multiplication (3×3, 2×2), then addition (1+1), and finally hit the mathematical void (0⁰, 0×0, 0+0). It's like watching the entire evolution of a math student's soul. First year: "I understand exponents!" Second year: "This is just multiplication, easy!" Third year: "Even a child can add!" Final year: "I'm dividing by zero and summoning demons from the mathematical underworld." The red devil at the bottom is basically what appears when you try to explain to your professor why 0⁰ should equal 2. Mathematical chaos incarnate!

The mathematical hierarchy of pain, illustrated perfectly. High school math champions get obliterated by undergraduate Analysis, only to watch that same Analysis become the puny sidekick to the eldritch horror known as Measure Theory. Nothing humbles a mathematics student quite like discovering there are seven levels of mathematical hell beyond what broke your spirit last semester. The progression from "I'm so smart" to "I understand nothing" is basically the universal mathematical experience.

The evolution of math learning in four stages: childhood enthusiasm (look at that pure joy!), serious college dedication (when you realize math isn't just counting), advanced textbook suffering (Real Analysis is where dreams go to die), and finally—antipsychotic medication. Nothing says "I've reached differential equations" like Haloperidol 5mg. The true mathematical journey isn't about numbers—it's about your declining mental health. Next time someone says "math is fun," show them this progression chart.
