A fat ,tenured Algebraist professor NEET was teaching a class on Grothendieck, known freeloader
”Before the class begins, you must get on your knees and worship Grothendieck and accept that he was the greatest mathematician the world has ever known, even greater than Bernoulli!”
At this moment, a brave, hard-working, tax-paying combinatorics undergraduate stood up and held out a theorem
”Is Algebra is so great, why can't it prove this theorem?”
The arrogant professor smirked quite Jewishly and smugly replied “We can't yet solve it you dumb combinatorialist. , we don't yet fully understand the prime field!”
“False, I just sat down and counted up from 1 and I found the answer”
The professor was visibly shaken, and dropped his chalk and copy of Local Homology. He stormed out
of the room, probably to go invent some incomprehensible nonsense to justify his own tenure. The students all stood up and applauded. Everything in the room was counted and the Choice function was recited multiple times. Several books on gibberish were burned (or category theory, but no one could tell the difference). Afterward, N+1 eagles flew in and failed to settle in N roosts. A flag named “Applications” was raised and everyone saluted, now knowing the Answer to “Why are we learning this?”
The professor lost his tenure that day and was forced to get a job, but he was unable to because all the knowledge he had acquired was totally useless.
