Alt text: a post on LinkedIn that says "yes 2d forms exist. They are called shapes". Then it proceeds to explain what shapes are.
I know my Italian grandmother had health problems lately, but THIS is how I find out? Nonagon?

What's that face for? That was comedic gold!
Also randomly making words hashtags for no reason...
I'm sure #2D will be trending soon
#forms. we can do it!
#circle yay
Probably an AI generated post. Either way, I hope this is not a tenured professor.
Maybe satire? I really hope so at least.
Or some weird social experiment to see how people react to it?
I hate where he placed the octagon.
What an absolute menace
I kept reading waiting for the metaphor
Reminds me of when you Google something and the answer is hidden in the middle of some article page.
Like you Google what shape is a stop sign and you get this.
Assistant Professor of what exactly?
Kindergarten.
Shapes.

A circle is a 1D object.
A disk is a 2D object.
The post is a failure.
Uh… a circle is a 2D object and a disk is a 3D object
Nope. You need one parameter to characterize a circle. Circle dimension is the same as of line. Circle has zero thickness. Circle is 1D-sphere.
Similar to a normal sphere being a 2D surface of a 3D ball, a 1D circle is the edge of 2D disc.
Hang on, WHAT'S THAT SECOND ONE
oh wait, it's a square, I remember this one
I learned it as a regular quadrilateral, we weren't fancy enough to use bespoke terms for things.
Wait until they find out the deep personal relationship between triangles and circles
