Stupid sexy math
Jonathan Swift got there first:
“If they would, for example, praise the beauty of a woman, or any other animal, they describe it by rhombs, circles, parallelograms, ellipses, and other geometrical terms, or by words of art drawn from music, needless here to repeat.”
Gulliver’s Travels, Part 3 Chapter 2
yeah but Swiftie was physically repulsed to nausea by his wife. He’s the absolute poster boy for being in the closet.
TIL, and it makes sense.
Man, I finally read that book a couple months ago. Way more pissing and shitting than I thought there’d be.
Read Gargantua and Pantagruel next.
Still counts.
For such basic faces dude went hard on that body
Before everyone was on the Internet; before everyone recorded everything; and before she would get absolutely in trouble, I had a 7th grade math teacher with a shirt that had the quadratic formula across the chest area.
One day when teaching this topic, she wore a jacket over it and when introducing the formula, she unzips the jacket and with great enthusiasm, reveals her formula to the whole class. To this day I have that formula hardcoded into my brain and, on occasion, use it (mostly on bullshit employment tests but still.)
