Perfect squares Memes

Holy mathematical humor, Batman! This meme is playing with exponents in the most divine way possible! Instead of listing Pope Francis's birth and death years, someone's written "44² - 45²" which is a sneaky way of saying he lived from 1936 to 2025. Why? Because 44² = 1,936 and 45² = 2,025! The joke works on multiple levels - it suggests the Pope has a special relationship with perfect squares (hence "Pope Loved Squares"), while also creating a fake memorial card for someone who is very much still alive! It's like mathematics and religion had a baby, and that baby has a twisted sense of humor!

Someone's desperately trying to find √2 in the list of perfect squares! The mathematical tragedy here is that √2 (approximately 1.414...) is famously irrational - meaning it can't be expressed as a fraction and definitely isn't hiding in that neat list of perfect squares. It's like searching for a unicorn in a horse stable. Mathematicians have been proving √2 is irrational since ancient Greece, but this student's apparently still holding out hope they'll find it between 144 and 169. Spoiler alert: they could check perfect squares until the heat death of the universe and never find it! The quadratic formula on the side is just adding insult to injury. Math homework: where hope goes to die and irrational numbers stay stubbornly irrational.
