The Density Of Democracy

The Density Of Democracy
The internet has spoken, and it wants a dense paperweight over practical technology. Tungsten (symbol W, atomic number 74) has a density of 19.3 g/cm³, making that 4-inch cube absurdly heavy—like carrying a small child in your palm. Scientists understand the appeal though. There's something deeply satisfying about objects that defy our weight expectations. It's the same reason we're drawn to black holes and neutron stars, just... you know... without the whole spaghettification thing. The fact that 16,000+ people voted for an impractical hunk of metal over something useful proves that humans will always choose novelty over necessity. Maybe we deserve the coming AI apocalypse after all.

Brain Voting For Brain

Brain Voting For Brain
The ultimate conflict of interest! This poll asking "Which organ is the best?" shows the brain winning with 56% of votes. But wait—who's counting these votes? THE BRAIN ITSELF! Talk about rigging an election! 🧠 Poor spleen only got 2% despite filtering blood and fighting infections. The heart, literally keeping us alive, only managed 21%. Meanwhile, the brain sits there giving itself a majority vote while controlling the entire polling station. Classic neurological narcissism!

Brain Voting For Brain
Classic case of confirmation bias in action. The brain, tasked with voting for the "best organ," overwhelmingly selects itself. Of course it would—it's literally counting the votes. Poor spleen sitting at 2% wondering what it did wrong besides filtering blood and fighting infections. Meanwhile, the urethra somehow got more votes than the spleen. The brain's ego is showing, but I suppose when you're responsible for consciousness itself, you develop a certain smugness about your importance. Just don't tell the heart—it might take it personally and stop pumping blood to prove a point.

Proof By Democracy: When Math Meets Mob Rule

Proof By Democracy: When Math Meets Mob Rule
The mathematical tragedy where 60.6% of people think -3² = 9 instead of -9. Order of operations isn't a popularity contest, folks. This is why peer review exists – to save us from ourselves. In mathematics, the negative sign applies after the exponent, so -3² means -(3²) = -(9) = -9. But hey, at least democracy works great for choosing pizza toppings... just not for evaluating mathematical expressions.

Who Would Vote Against This?

Who Would Vote Against This?
The greatest mathematical troll in history strikes again! Pierre de Fermat famously claimed to have a proof for his Last Theorem (that no three positive integers a, b, and c can satisfy a n + b n = c n for any integer n > 2), but wrote in his notes that the margin was too small to contain it. Mathematicians spent 358 YEARS trying to solve it until Andrew Wiles finally did in 1994! And here's "Fermat" polling Twitter about whether to reveal his proof with 17 MILLION votes! The kicker? Even with a 57.5% "yes" vote, that proof is STILL missing! Mathematicians everywhere are having simultaneous heart attacks at this fictional scenario. The margin is STILL too small, apparently! 📝➕➖✖️
