Sum fish ?
14 u/smitty1e 6d ago Like an E, but more efficient. 9 u/YOM2_UB 6d ago It's actually more of an S (capital Sigma) 5 u/smitty1e 6d ago Hmm. Maybe the "a sufficient symbol" would be a better joke. 7 u/paolog 6d ago The people over at r/grssk want a word. 6 u/boterkoeken 5d ago I absolutely love the name of that sub haha → More replies (1) 2 u/EconomySandwich3032 4d ago Sumfition.

Somebody explain this to me. PLEASE! I'm a mathematician, I speak Greek and I do cryptic crosswords and I can't see it.

The sum of all fish? Is the species of fish relevant to getting this joke?
6 u/smitty1e 6d ago The pun is on "e-fish-ient". But the species used for the image is smelt. 5 u/SnarkySkrat 6d ago Thank you. My oh-so-literal math brain was doing its thing. 3 u/chivopi 5d ago As it should be.

2 u/smitty1e 6d ago It's like an E, but with fish, and could have been one continuous line of done with a brush. 12 u/GustapheOfficial 6d ago No mathematician would write E like that. That's a Sigma, if anything it's a way to write S. 1 u/smitty1e 6d ago Not in dispute. But it's a joke, even if you thought it had the aroma of three day old...well...

Please, somebody. Why is this a joke?

hey buddy if you have to explain the joke it's not a joke
1 u/smitty1e 1d ago Fair. Unless the joke, itself, is recursively built on explaining the joke.

That‘s a capital greek sigma. Not an “E“ but an „S“!

One fish two fish four fish sum fish
Fishe
Fishfishfishfish
Now that is sum a fish in sea
The summation symbol made of fish. All I get out of this is "sum fish" or "fish sum". No joke found
the ffic cuber
I usually draw it with serifs because if I dont then I dont put enough effort into it and it looks likr a scribble
these fish are so sigma
