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

[–] over_clox@lemmy.world 88 points 1 week ago (1 children)

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

[–] flambonkscious@sh.itjust.works 26 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Brilliant, and succinct. 10 points

[–] davidagain@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week 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?

Person 1: "fuck you!"

Person 2: "a real fuck to you to"

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

Yes, OP only gets you to Q[i]

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 48 points 1 week 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 week ago (1 children)

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

[–] theneverfox@pawb.social 7 points 1 week 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 38 points 1 week 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 25 points 1 week ago (2 children)

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

[–] over_clox@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week 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 9 points 1 week ago

Hmmm so it may have been a compliment

[–] Comment105@lemm.ee 2 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week 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 16 points 1 week 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 week ago

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

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

...static fuck?

[–] red@sopuli.xyz 29 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week 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 week ago (1 children)

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

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

A good point 😅

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

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

[–] nyctre@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week 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@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week 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 week 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" :

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

"What kind of fuckery is this?"

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

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

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

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

|fuck|

yes it is.

¿Porque no los dos?

[–] marcos@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week 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 week 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 week ago

Yes to all of those.

Source, my time in the Army.

I fucking love science

Something's fucky

There are absolutely imaginary fucks.

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

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

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

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