i was in a group call with 6 mathematicians, and it came time to order our names in the paper we were writing. in math papers, the names are always ordered alphabetically. we had to pull up a picture of the alphabet because none of us could remember which way the letters are ordered.

You guys are mathematicians not letterematicians.

Also, I'm doing engineering shit and I still need to count using my fingers when calculating something on a multiplication table

Exactly. That's why I refuse to do algebra.
