Oh, and I thought of a math joke:

"Yo mamma's so fat they call her Hilbert because her curves are space filling".

Thank you, I'll be here all week πŸ˜‚

@johnabs I never understood those yo mama's so fat jokes.. What's so funny about them?

@trinsec Honestly nothing, but they're an (arguably) safe way to make jokes about topics that any particular individual may feel sensitive about if that sort of comment was pointed at them. If someone said that about me, I would be rather upset as I'm currently struggling with my weight at the gym and am self conscious about it, whereas this joke allows the insult to be aimed nowhere in particular (or I guess everywhere..but I didn't mean to insult literally everyone on qoto's mother πŸ˜‚).

Case in point, many people will take turns trying to come up with the worst burn in the form of "yo mama" jokes as a way to have a competition between wits. Obviously it's easier to deal with such insulting jokes about your mother if the other person has never met her, thus making it a way to give someone the taste of a tounge lashing without the whole mess devolving into actual verbal abuse/bullying (this, of course, changes if the person actually knows your mother and makes it too personal).

In this case it was just the vehicle for the math part of the joke, which I thought was pretty funny.

@johnabs But this is assuming yo mama is so fat to begin with... Mine's the opposite. Mo mamma is so thin she's able to guide a thread through a needle. :P

@lucifargundam @johnabs It involves 'greater than' and 'lesser than'... so probably an equation.

@trinsec @johnabs

Ah ok, I didn't see any graphs illustrating the equation. Is it because yo mama so big, she can't fit on one?

@trinsec @johnabs

Yo mama so thin, they had to create new data structures just to conceptualize her.

@lucifargundam @johnabs They probably had to create a new language for this too.

@trinsec @johnabs if she's this thin, would the new language model reflect her dimensions by using minimal syllables? Or would it be comvulutedly inflated to explain as much as possible within each word?
