Feeling Bad For N
Poor variable n just wanted to join the cool natural numbers club, but mathematicians said NOPE! The "proof" is literally just commanding n not to be natural - that's like telling water not to be wet! In math proofs, we usually need actual logical steps, but here Mario's just holding n hostage while the mathematician pulls the ultimate power move. It's mathematical bullying at its finest! Next time your professor asks for a rigorous proof, just write "because I said so" and see how that goes!

Proof By Ignorance
The mathematical mic drop we didn't know we needed! The gray figure confidently declares "1 isn't prime" only to be challenged with "name all prime factors of 1 then." The silence in panels 3-4 is deafening . For the curious nerds: 1 is indeed not prime by definition (a prime number must have exactly two distinct factors: 1 and itself). But 1 has... wait for it... zero prime factors! It's the mathematical equivalent of bringing a calculator to a knife fight, then realizing you forgot the batteries.
