We also need irrational fucks for the complex field don't we?

[–] over_clox@lemmy.world 82 points 1 year ago (1 children)

We already have irrational fucks, they're called politicians.

[–] flambonkscious@sh.itjust.works 24 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Brilliant, and succinct. 10 points

[–] davidagain@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago (2 children)

So now we have both irrational and fractional fucks, we have all real fucks, and since we can have "twisted fuck" we can rotate any fuck through any angle and we have the entire complex fuck plane.

Would a Gordian knot be like an ouborous of fucks?

[–] anomnom@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

And now a whole generation of 12 year old boys thinks that’s what normal sex is like.

[–] Comment105@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

Fun fact about me, I was actually 12 once.

[–] Szyler@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Person 1: "fuck you!"

Person 2: "a real fuck to you to"

[–] kogasa@programming.dev 4 points 1 year ago

Yes, OP only gets you to Q[i]

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 47 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Of course there is imaginary fucking. What do you think people do when they jerk off?

[–] hemko@lemmy.dbzer0.com 22 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No that's simulated fucking. Imaginary would be a wet dream

[–] theneverfox@pawb.social 7 points 1 year ago

Both could be both. You could have an imaginary fuck while awake, you could have a simulated fuck with a wet dream that doesn't involve any fucking, stimulating fucking without actually imagining it

[–] over_clox@lemmy.world 36 points 1 year ago (3 children)

What in the flying fuck implies there must also be falling fucks, running fucks, swimming fucks, lazy fucks, and fucking fucks.

If I'm missing something here, please fucking let me know.

[–] SurfinBird@lemmy.ca 24 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Went on vacation in NYC last year. Can confirm, was called a fucking fuck.

[–] over_clox@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

But were you called a pretty fuck or an ugly fuck?

I've been called pretty fucking ugly, sooo...

[–] SurfinBird@lemmy.ca 8 points 1 year ago

Hmmm so it may have been a compliment

[–] Comment105@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

That fuck's a fuck-fucking fuck, by virtue of that fuck calling the fuck that is you not merely a fuck but rather a fucking fuck. So fucked.

[–] anonymouse2@sh.itjust.works 14 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Fucking fucks imply the existence of asexual fucks.

Mother-fucking fucks are all I can find on Pornhub these days.

[–] Comment105@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

Lots of fucked fucks on there, too. For unfucked fucks.

[–] ik5pvx@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

...static fuck?

[–] red@sopuli.xyz 28 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (4 children)

Being all out of fucks to give also implies they are finite and exchangeable.

Are fucks a form of cryptocurrency?!

[–] jerakor@startrek.website 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The oldest profession traded in it so they are arguably the original currency.

[–] red@sopuli.xyz 6 points 1 year ago

A good point 😅

[–] absGeekNZ@lemmy.nz 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Just because you are all out of fucks, doesn't really have anything to do with the finite/infinite nature of all fucks.

[–] red@sopuli.xyz 4 points 1 year ago

If I have none, clearly I have to mine more with my GPU.

[–] nyctre@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

A currency for sure. Both crypto and not

‘What the ever-loving fuck’ implies that love can overcome all.

[–] theneverfox@pawb.social 1 points 1 year ago

Or it implies that eternal love cannot exist or cannot exist in the presence of a never ending fuck, leading to the surprise in the statement

[–] dejected_warp_core@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

So, "what in the isomorphic fuck" covers all the bases?

[–] Shardikprime@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

No, because then you enter into Homomorphic fucks.

Beyond that you have the ring of fucks.

Shit gets real within the field of fucks, entering the fuck domains

Further you get Abelian fucks

[–] Dasus@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I take "what the absolute fuck" to mean there's a platonic ideal of "fuck" and that's what they're referring to.

But this did make me want to find out the etymology of "absolute" :

https://www.etymonline.com/word/absolute

[–] absGeekNZ@lemmy.nz 6 points 1 year ago

(thank|fuck)you, this is going to waste my whole weekend. A visual representation of etymology, that is awesome, I guess I am one of the 10,000 today

[–] EndlessNightmare@reddthat.com 11 points 1 year ago

"What kind of fuckery is this?"

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago (2 children)

what the absolute fuck implies relative fucks; it's not a math term

[–] TheReturnOfPEB@reddthat.com 15 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

|fuck|

yes it is.

¿Porque no los dos?

[–] Evil_Shrubbery@lemm.ee 10 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Yes, this is correct.

You dont even have to be a math nerd to innately know this.

Like, I'm about to go to work & dispense imaginary fucks all day (because math-lord knows I have no real fucks to give anymore).

(The thing is they are both imaginary as well as irrational fucks, which complicates math a lot & I only work with fuck approximations)

[–] marcos@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Lots and lots of possible interpretations for "I don't give a single fuck".

Including dozens...

[–] hemko@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 year ago

I don't give a married fuck/I don't give a widowed fuck

Best word in the entire English language. Nothing else compares.

[–] Maggoty@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Yes to all of those.

There are absolutely imaginary fucks.

[–] lord_ryvan@ttrpg.network 2 points 1 year ago

Who the hell says “what the entire fuck”, ever‽

[–] samus12345@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Nah, they just colloquial terms for emphasis. Though that's not nearly as fun!
