Student: "Hey, a shortcut! Let me first just walk around the long way so I can measure the length of the other two sides, multiply those lengths by themselves, add them together, and find out how much extra walking I've saved myself by taking the shortcut.

If only I had more hypothenanuses and less avocado toast... :(
I don't know who hurt this guy, but it sounds like we're only a couple more low-effort math jokes away from hearing a rant about the Jews, and how the woke mindvirus is destroying America.
4 hours later... yep :(
And he's bribing or friends with the mods, too. My comments just got deleted and my other account banned because I called him out on his racism and anti-intellectualism. 🤔
They're pushing anti-intellectualist propaganda here. And defending bigots.
It's high time for me to speak out openly against this crap.
If only you had spell check and the motivation to fix your broken society instead of complaining about having to learn shit.
