Nesting Memes

The recursive nightmare that is mathematics in a nutshell! You innocently open one definition only to discover it's built on five more definitions, which themselves contain even more definitions. It's like mathematical Russian nesting dolls. The wide-eyed panic of the cat perfectly captures that moment when you realize your "quick review" before an exam just turned into an existential crisis. Fun fact: In formal mathematics, this definitional rabbit hole is actually necessary for rigor—each concept must be built on previously established foundations. Still doesn't make it any less terrifying when you're cramming at 2AM!
