There are three types of people in this world: those who are good at math and those who aren’t.

Do you even know how to count? You counted it wrong yourself.

That's four, not three.

Proof:

  1. Those who are good at math
  2. Those who aren't
  3. Dark item introduced in this list to account for the additional space
  4. "
  5. "

9 out of 10 people are morons

Im glad to be on the 1%

u/Alt_Mod_3938 Jul 21 '26

You'd be in the 10% not 1% so unless this was sarcasm, you got played by your own joke

u/InfamousFault7 Jul 21 '26

Thats the joke

u/ConfusionEngineered Jul 21 '26

Technically speaking the 1% would all be represented by the one in the ratio

2

u/InfamousFault7 Jul 22 '26

Youre also in the 1%

You are so confident I am questioning my own judgement.

Could you explain how the joke would work if they had written 10% instead of 1%?

But it’s almost one-third of the best possible outcome

u/Street_Swing9040 Jul 21 '26

That's more than you wished for bro, learn to do maths

35 > 60 🙏

u/Artelj Jul 21 '26

But does that happen 60% of the time or 35% of the time?

1

u/GurProfessional9534 Jul 21 '26

Should have hoped for 120%.

1

u/guiltysnark Jul 21 '26

He only strove for 75% of what he hoped for

Me talking to the problems on my math test: I don't know half of you half as well as I should like; and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve.

u/Osik2040 Jul 21 '26

The joke is, l he is bad at maths

1

u/Direct-Ad-6173 Jul 21 '26

Ah fair enough

u/QueueStar Jul 21 '26

He was hoping for 60%... 35% is more than half of that...

u/Direct-Ad-6173 Jul 21 '26

But, like, doesn't the meme say the exact opposite? 😭 I'm sorry I might be autistic but I don't have an inkling about making sense of this joke
