And I think I have a new tag, with your kind permission, Hecubus.
But of course.
Wesley: Illyria can be...difficult. Testing her might be hard without getting someone seriously hurt. Angel: We'll make Spike do it. Wesley: Good.

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.
my head hurts
I'll be in me bunk
I'll let y'all decide which head hurts

I vote for the one that does the math. Hey, get out the probulator and find which one that is on Jimi!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I think from now on I'm gonna call Jimi "Zaphod."

Hey. New board.
I'ma make a "My Fandom is Very Mathy" LJ icon as soon as I'm not drunk.
That will be next month sometime, at this rate.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Except OoG should be able to have ∞+1 !'s.
I'm not sure the induction hypothesis allows for uncountable infinties.
Dude. ∞+1 is not uncountable. In fact ∞+1=∞

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.
Dude. ∞+1 is not uncountable. In fact ∞+1=∞
For that matter, so is ∞-1. Or ∞+∞. Or, by extension, ∞-∞, or even ∞/∞. If it has ∞ in it, the answer is always ∞.
I'm absolutely certain that there has to be a joke in here somewhere, but I can't think of one.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

This thread could be mathier. There should be more math.

It's been so long since I've studied this... but if you look at ∞ as a limit, then ∞/∞ could be a non-infinite number, depending on what the limit is. For example, the lim x²/x as x→∞ is ∞, but the lim x/x as x→∞ =1.
Come to think of it, I've only studied ∞ as a limit... Anyway, does this make sense? I mean, it matters what kind of ∞ you're talking about....
eta: I was taught (or else I just decided this) that ∞ is not to be treated as a number at all, just a limit....
eta²: There are infinitely many integers > 0, but there are infinitely many real numbers between 0 and 1. So the number of real numbers is a higher order infinity (or something) than the number of integers.
