So, "what in the isomorphic fuck" covers all the bases?

[–] Shardikprime@lemmy.world 1 points 3 minutes ago* (last edited 27 seconds ago)

No, because then you enter into Homomorphic fucks.

Beyond that you have the ring of fucks.

Shit gets real within the field of fucks, entering the fuck domains

Further you get Abelian fucks

[–] samus12345@lemmy.world 2 points 4 hours ago

Nah, they just colloquial terms for emphasis. Though that's not nearly as fun!

[–] SlapnutsGT@lemmy.world 3 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Best word in the entire English language. Nothing else compares.

There are absolutely imaginary fucks.

[–] ArtVandelay@lemmy.world 1 points 5 hours ago

It certainly illustrates the diversity of the word

[–] Dasus@lemmy.world 9 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

I take "what the absolute fuck" to mean there's a platonic ideal of "fuck" and that's what they're referring to.

But this did make me want to find out the etymology of "absolute" :

(thank|fuck)you, this is going to waste my whole weekend. A visual representation of etymology, that is awesome, I guess I am one of the 10,000 today

Being all out of fucks to give also implies they are finite and exchangeable.

Are fucks a form of cryptocurrency?!

[–] absGeekNZ@lemmy.nz 2 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Just because you are all out of fucks, doesn't really have anything to do with the finite/infinite nature of all fucks.

[–] red@sopuli.xyz 2 points 3 hours ago

If I have none, clearly I have to mine more with my GPU.

[–] jerakor@startrek.website 3 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

The oldest profession traded in it so they are arguably the original currency.

[–] red@sopuli.xyz 3 points 4 hours ago

A good point 😅

[–] nyctre@lemmy.world 4 points 13 hours ago

A currency for sure. Both crypto and not

"What kind of fuckery is this?"

[–] Evil_Shrubbery@lemm.ee 9 points 16 hours ago* (last edited 16 hours ago)

Yes, this is correct.

You dont even have to be a math nerd to innately know this.

Like, I'm about to go to work & dispense imaginary fucks all day (because math-lord knows I have to real fucks to give anymore).

(The thing is they are both imaginary as well as irrational fucks, which complicates math a lot & I only work with fuck approximations)

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 44 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

Of course there is imaginary fucking. What do you think people do when they jerk off?

[–] hemko@lemmy.dbzer0.com 18 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

No that's simulated fucking. Imaginary would be a wet dream

[–] theneverfox@pawb.social 4 points 14 hours ago

Both could be both. You could have an imaginary fuck while awake, you could have a simulated fuck with a wet dream that doesn't involve any fucking, stimulating fucking without actually imagining it

[–] HexesofVexes@lemmy.world 57 points 23 hours ago (2 children)

We also need irrational fucks for the complex field don't we?

[–] over_clox@lemmy.world 73 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

We already have irrational fucks, they're called politicians.

[–] flambonkscious@sh.itjust.works 18 points 17 hours ago (2 children)

Brilliant, and succinct. 10 points

[–] davidagain@lemmy.world 6 points 17 hours ago (2 children)

So now we have both irrational and fractional fucks, we have all real fucks, and since we can have "twisted fuck" we can rotate any fuck through any angle and we have the entire complex fuck plane.

[–] Szyler@lemmy.world 2 points 11 hours ago* (last edited 11 hours ago)

Person 1: "fuck you!"

Person 2: "a real fuck to you to"

[–] flambonkscious@sh.itjust.works 3 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

Would a Gordian knot be like an ouborous of fucks?

[–] Comment105@lemm.ee 1 points 11 hours ago (1 children)
[–] anomnom@sh.itjust.works 1 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

And now a whole generation of 12 year old boys thinks that’s what normal sex is like.

[–] Comment105@lemm.ee 2 points 6 hours ago

Fun fact about me, I was actually 12 once.

[–] kogasa@programming.dev 4 points 18 hours ago

Yes, OP only gets you to Q[i]

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 10 points 17 hours ago (2 children)

what the absolute fuck implies relative fucks; it's not a math term

[–] TheReturnOfPEB@reddthat.com 14 points 16 hours ago* (last edited 5 hours ago)

|fuck|

yes it is.

¿Porque no los dos?

[–] Maggoty@lemmy.world 4 points 15 hours ago

Yes to all of those.

Source, my time in the Army.

[–] over_clox@lemmy.world 36 points 23 hours ago (3 children)

What in the flying fuck implies there must also be falling fucks, running fucks, swimming fucks, lazy fucks, and fucking fucks.

If I'm missing something here, please fucking let me know.

[–] anonymouse2@sh.itjust.works 16 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

Fucking fucks imply the existence of asexual fucks.

Mother-fucking fucks are all I can find on Pornhub these days.

[–] Comment105@lemm.ee 3 points 11 hours ago

Lots of fucked fucks on there, too. For unfucked fucks.

[–] ik5pvx@lemmy.world 8 points 18 hours ago

...static fuck?

[–] SurfinBird@lemmy.ca 24 points 23 hours ago (2 children)

Went on vacation in NYC last year. Can confirm, was called a fucking fuck.

[–] Comment105@lemm.ee 2 points 11 hours ago* (last edited 11 hours ago)

That fuck's a fuck-fucking fuck, by virtue of that fuck calling the fuck that is you not merely a fuck but rather a fucking fuck. So fucked.

[–] over_clox@lemmy.world 9 points 23 hours ago* (last edited 23 hours ago) (1 children)

But were you called a pretty fuck or an ugly fuck?

I've been called pretty fucking ugly, sooo...

[–] SurfinBird@lemmy.ca 8 points 22 hours ago

Hmmm so it may have been a compliment

[–] Hobbes_Dent@lemmy.world 19 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

‘What the ever-loving fuck’ implies that love can overcome all.

If negative fucks are real, then it would be possible.

[–] NegativeLookBehind@lemmy.world 5 points 20 hours ago

I fucking love science
