The 5 signs of math poisoning:

1. You become increasingly pedantic to the point of absurdity
2. Stock art photos of random white symbols, incomprehensible formulas, and geometrical diagrams on a green background make you foam at the mouth
3. You catch yourself instigating arguments about the technical definition of a sandwich, just to rope unsuspecting, curious people into a never-ending dinner debate
4. In order to be internally consistent with your idealization of the abstract, you yourself strive to have zero total practical uses
5. When you see random UTF-8 character strings, you catch yourself looking for an operator or an equals sign

 

lgthpt:

You were absurdly pedantic before the math

 

the-real-numbers:

Define “absurdly pedantic”.
