Can we have a thread about stories of talking to people who don't know anything about math?
>inb5 people accuse me of thinking I know everything in math

>someone asking me about calculus

>wut
>"That would represent the distance between function values increasing without bound..."
>"But why not? I mean 0 is like infinity so it should still work. You just have to try to think about it."
