I’ve been told off before (yes) for not just putting a straight forward description in alt text. I’m not sure that then conveys the humorous or puzzle-like intentions behind the post, which feels exclusionary too. In the end I just try my best to judge it, knowing I’m doing my best to get it right.

I didn’t know there was one… which shows how well they’ve covered it up.

“I hate to be the one… sorry… unh… uh… to tell you… ugh… nearly there… this… uh uh uh…” I’ve disgusted myself typing that.

Yeah, im having fun. Luckily there are plenty of mathematicians in the replies explaining why it DOES work technically. Not that that matters the joke.

I’ve had this presenting supposedly humorous drawings to a potential client. It’s very disconcerting. I chose not to pursue the job any further because I knew it would end up involving far more work.

Alternatively maths could be a lot funnier if it didn’t.

I like the way the bonobo looks like his mum made him get a new haircut for school photo day.

‘I hate to be that guy’ ALWAYS means I fucken LOVE being that guy. I also get ‘I wonder which awful pedant is going to be the first one to tell you that…’. Yeah mate, it was you.

(@mooseallain.bsky.social posted a Venn diagram joke earlier, so I went and looked at Vennbots and I'd forgotten how pleasing they were. Also, my original follow up tweet was, "Now you'll always think of Venn diagrams as little cuddles." Which I felt was important to share.)

It can be… testing.

I posted this yesterday. Someone replied saying it didn’t need the explanation and to post it again without it. I pointed out the explanation *is* the joke. They said: No it isn’t. 🤷🏻‍♂️ (Yes, I blocked them) bsky.app/profile/moos...

So there’s no need to ‘well actually’ me. Try to be in that venn diagram of people who understand how venn diagrams work and people who understand how jokes work.

I saw a post about a publisher who’s putting a ‘Human Written’ sticker on the front of their books and I’m all for it.

It’s a joke, not maths. Most people are enjoying the joke.
