Factorial Excitement Lost In Translation
The first commenter drops a mind-boggling stat bomb: there are 80 septillion septillion septillion possible ways to arrange a deck of cards (that's 52 factorial or 52!). The second commenter responds with "52!" which is both the mathematical notation AND an excited exclamation. The third commenter completely misses the factorial joke and thinks the person is just yelling the number of cards. It's like watching someone get excited about combinatorial mathematics while everyone else thinks they're just being loud about cardistry. That number is so astronomically huge that if you shuffled a deck of cards right now, you've likely created an arrangement that has never existed before in human history!
