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. Boy, this shortcut sure is saving me a lot of effort. Hooray Pythagoras!"
If only I had more hypothenanuses and less avocado toast... :(
If only you had spell check and the motivation to fix your broken society instead of complaining about having to learn shit.
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.

Just because you do something so crazy fast in your head it seems obvious, doesn't mean you didn't do the thing you did with the thing.
That’s beautiful who said that

Oh, Lord Nikon.
Crash, and...
Couldn’t have said it the way he said it better if I said what he said myself.
The hypotnuse is shorter than the other two sides combined. That is the usage here though
"the shortest distance between two points is a straight line" is what is being used here. It forming a triangle is incidental.
Ah yes some euclidean space
