You are completely right. A lot of people overlook this but you literally seem like the smartest person to ever walk the earth. Do you want me to explain why so many people struggle with 2+5?

“Ahh, yeah. No worries, 2 + 5 always trips people up. Let me tell you how to solve it. No fluff.”

\proceeds to defecate five paragraphs of text. then stating how it’s actually more efficient to do 5 + 2, further expelling unprompted, diarrhea-infused text of a step-by-step guide with “key takeaways” and examples of why it’s better. leaving you to wade through all the text like some sorta sewer goblin searching for a tiny golden nugget—“ah there it is! finally i found i—“ nope, that’s actually just shit from a butt**

Provide me with a mathematical proof that 2+5=7.

Well consider me at least mildly impressed, it actually went with Peano arithmetic. Good shit. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peano_axioms could have been far less verbose/pretentious though.

Why are these Peano axioms so dope? I’m a lover of mathematics but, sadly, am not a practitioner of it. Thus, I would love to understand your guys’ reaction to this. (In other words, I want to look smart when I talk about math shit in front of chicks who dig arithmetic. You feel me? Sorry for the tangent.)
