x = 5/9 is not 9/9. 5/9 = .55555…

You’re proving that 0.555… equals 5/9 (which it does), not that it equals 1 (which it doesn’t).

It’s absolutely not the same result as x = 0.999… as you claim.

Comedy can be and is used to make real criticisms of the world and various institutions. “It’s just a joke” is one of the most common lies.

People can laugh at the joke, or disagree with the criticism it communicates, or both, or neither.

But having and exercising critical thinking skills when engaging with memes in a meme community full of scholars and academics is exactly what I would expect.

okay but wait, they’re not even exact

but at the same time they are clearly related, it looks like most of the same shapes are there, but yours has a hair flip and a collared over shirt

i am curious why there are variations on the same image

i just find it hilarious! i didn’t mean that to contradict or try to correct you lol, i apologIze if my tone was off

it IS effectively the same poster, which makes it more amusing to me that the differences are there

like if you look at the shape of the pants for example. it is definitely the same base image underneath the details
