The Number Is Not Rational But Sensible
When your LaTeX editor suggests replacing "rational" with "sensible" in your math proof and suddenly your entire theorem falls apart! This is peak mathematical humor where the editor clearly doesn't understand that √3 isn't just being unreasonable—it's literally irrational by mathematical definition. The "S" at the bottom standing for "Sensible numbers" is killing me. Next thing you know, we'll be classifying numbers as "emotionally stable" instead of "real" and "in therapy" instead of "imaginary."

Teacher's Reaction To Rationalized Denominators
The eternal mathematical war between form and function! Top panel shows a teacher's horrified face when a student leaves a fraction with an irrational denominator (1/√2). Pure mathematical blasphemy! But that smile in the bottom panel when the student properly rationalizes it to (√2/2)? That's the face of a math teacher experiencing pure serotonin. For the uninitiated: rationalizing denominators is that thing math teachers insist on like it's written in the Constitution. It's basically mathematical feng shui - same value, prettier packaging. Thirty years from now, you'll never use this skill, but you'll still wake up in cold sweats remembering that one time you left √3 in the denominator.
