Who is this nobody who keeps saying things?

Shakes cane at cloud.

I’m definitely joining you in being an old codger but this “Nobody” thing is the stupidest meme format I’ve ever come across and it enrages me every time I see it

It’s so fucking dumb. Every single meme is better with the “nobody:” cut out.

Time for a c/uselessnobody community.

Yes. If nobody said nothing, then everybody said something. "Everybody:" would still be stupid, but at least it would actually mean what they're intending.

Keeps not saying things, in this (and many) cases

But there would only be one variable to examine, since there is only one type of fruit in this vehicle.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

what would be far more horrifying is if the amount of fruit in the car was constant

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Well technically it would be, if you weren’t just basing a problem on this scenario, where you wanted a person to solve for the number of fruit. If you’re actually in this scenario, and not just writing a problem about it, then you could just count the fruit.

why count the fruit when i could simply write a math textbook, include this as one of the problems, and then have students calculate it for me instead
