@FirstProgenitor topology is the study of holes, which is ironic - you'd think that'd be the bottomologist's job
@velexiraptor @FirstProgenitor well the bottom aint the one studying the hole
@FirstProgenitor it's actually wrong, the pants should look exactly like the shirt
@FirstProgenitor actually no, a shirt has four holes
pants have three
i'm not sure how they're counting but it looks wrong to me
@00dani @FirstProgenitor if u extend the bottom hole of a shirt and make it the outside it works, think of like a long circle skirt with two extra holes
Same with pants but the reverse you can bring the main opening down and bunch up the legs to make that shape
@00dani @FirstProgenitor nah, it's right, its just hard to visualize
imagine taking the outer circumference of the pants and stretching it up and down
@00dani @FirstProgenitor doesn't a shirt have only 2, unless you count the button holes?
@patterfloof @FirstProgenitor i was wrong before, but a shirt actually does have three holes, not two: one for your head and one for each pawb
@00dani @FirstProgenitor but the head hole only exists when it's fastened, that also gives you a waist hole :)
@patterfloof @FirstProgenitor there's a head hole, two pawb holes, and the other end of all three holes is shared
imagine turning a garbage bag, which topologically has zero holes, into a shirt. you'd need to punch exactly three holes into it
@00dani Ah thank you, the garbage bag explanation works perfectly for me!
@00dani @FirstProgenitor yeah and the shirt should have four no?
@moiety @FirstProgenitor yeah, pants have three holes in them and shirts have four
socks and cup of coffee are correct though
@00dani @moiety @FirstProgenitor ... But if you shorten the legs of the pants, they will come to resemble the two-hole donut shown.
Same if you shorten the length of the shirt, it eventually collapses into a three-hole donut.
@Griff @moiety @FirstProgenitor yeah i knowww i got it wrong
@00dani Okay, cool, just wanted to make sure I was understanding it right. |3
@carcinopithecus @moiety yeah that's right, i topologied wrong
the meme is correct
@carcinopithecus
And coffee cup is sock for coffee.
@moiety @00dani
@jhulten @carcinopithecus @moiety a coffee cup is a torus because it has a handle
socks don't usually have handles
@00dani @carcinopithecus @moiety The handle. Of course.
@FirstProgenitor I know what it means but idk if I should share this cursed information
@FirstProgenitor I have Issues with it though tbh
@RussellsBarbershopQuartet @FirstProgenitor yeah wait that's not how you'd deflate a shirt
@velexiraptor @FirstProgenitor my issue was the coffee actually but I think they mean the handle on the mug
@FirstProgenitor wait, isn’t a shirt four holes?
@moiety No, the picture is right: topologically, a (normal) shirt has three holes.
Consider how many holes does a straw have: it may look like 2… but it's really just one: a straw is (topologically) just a very long donut ☺️
@FirstProgenitor the fucked up thing is you dont even drink out of the coffee cup hole
@FirstProgenitor love how the cup of coffee only has a hole in it because of the handle
@dragon @FirstProgenitor there is zero(0) difference between a mug and a donut.
@FirstProgenitor mika you said you didn't know what it means
@00dani @FirstProgenitor yes, we’re just transplaining it to you Mika, it comes from a good place
@FirstProgenitor bottomology
@FirstProgenitor Sorry I only saw the boost and not the rest of the thread.
@FirstProgenitor topology, isn't that the hedge cutting science
@FirstProgenitor everything i learned about topology i learned through memes and that's way better than any explanation
@hoppet @FirstProgenitor
Wait till you are subjected to the actual math, you'll wish you never heard the word
@FirstProgenitor I absolutely adore this "shut up everyone!" cri de coeur.
@FirstProgenitor @eigenellies this is actually more like a pair of pants, in that it's 2 holes
@FirstProgenitor don't listen to the fools in your mentions. a shirt is three holes and pants are two. this meme is correct.
@RussellsBarbershopQuartet @FirstProgenitor
I ∞'nd this statement
@FirstProgenitor It's the number of holes in each thing.
If you could magically deform each item, you could transform them into each of those shapes without breaking them or changing the numbers of holes they have.
@FirstProgenitor this is correct and I hate that I understand why, math is a special brainrot
@FirstProgenitor ...why is the coffee before the pants
@FirstProgenitor why are so many ppl saying any of these are wrong they r literally all right
@laurie @FirstProgenitor i messed up okay???? im sowwy
@00dani @FirstProgenitor its not just u !!!
beverage mention
@FirstProgenitor
the hole for a coffee cup is the handle, since the part that holds coffee doesn't go all the way through
pants have two holes, one per leg, and are joined at the crotch
shirts have holes for head and arms
socks do not have a hole that goes all the way through, so they would be hole-less discs
beverage mention
@Sorl @FirstProgenitor but what if someone has a hole in their sock?
@FirstProgenitor OK I can't wrap my head around the shirt one
@FirstProgenitor why aren't socks doughnut shaped like the cup
@RedC @FirstProgenitor The hole in the mug is the handle
STOP EXPLAINING TOPOLOGY TO ME I DID NOT WANT THIS INFORMATION
