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

[–] over_clox 87 points 1 month ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 26 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Brilliant, and succinct. 10 points

[–] davidagain 9 points 1 month 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?

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

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

Fun fact about me, I was actually 12 once.

Person 1: "fuck you!"

Person 2: "a real fuck to you to"

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

Yes, OP only gets you to Q[i]

[–] [email protected] 46 points 1 month ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 21 points 1 month ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month 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

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.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 month ago (2 children)

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

[–] over_clox 10 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

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

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

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago

Hmmm so it may have been a compliment

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month 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.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Fucking fucks imply the existence of asexual fucks.

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

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

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

[–] ik5pvx 8 points 1 month ago

...static fuck?

[–] [email protected] 27 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (4 children)

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

Are fucks a form of cryptocurrency?!

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month 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.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

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

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

A good point 😅

[–] nyctre 4 points 1 month ago

A currency for sure. Both crypto and not

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

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

[–] Shardikprime 6 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month 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 12 points 1 month 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" :

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month 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

[–] pyre 10 points 1 month ago (2 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

|fuck|

yes it is.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

¿Porque no los dos?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 month ago

"What kind of fuckery is this?"

[–] marcos 9 points 1 month ago (1 children)

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

Including dozens...

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

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

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)

[–] SlapnutsGT 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

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

[–] Maggoty 5 points 1 month ago

Yes to all of those.

Source, my time in the Army.

[–] NegativeLookBehind 5 points 1 month ago

I fucking love science

There are absolutely imaginary fucks.

[–] samus12345 2 points 1 month ago

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

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

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