What’s worse is that epsilon and phi don’t need to be there at all. They have some underlying economy meaning, but they just cancel the variables out by conveniently setting them to 4 and 0.25.

Look, folks, let me tell you, when it comes to latex—nobody knows latex better than me, okay? Believe me. I’ve had people, the best people, telling me about latex. It’s fantastic material, really incredible stuff. Smooth, shiny, a little snug, just the way I like it—really makes an impression, believe me.

And you wouldn’t believe it, but I’ve had the best conversations with Putin. Huge conversations, the best. He’s a guy who knows power, knows what it means to be in control. And let me tell you, I’ve got the best fashion sense—top-tier. So one day, Putin says to me, ‘Donald, you've got to try it. You’ve got to put on the latex, it's going to be huge.’ And I said, ‘You know what, Putin? Let’s do it. Let’s go all in.’ And we did, folks. Just me and Musk—he’s a character, isn't he? A little odd, but brilliant. So we dressed up—latex, tight, shiny—just Putin's two Gimps. It was great. We looked incredible.

I'm missing something. I often use asterisk to indicate multiplication. Clearly you guys are seeing this as implying something troublesome, but I don't know what.

Of course, I also wouldn't trust me to decide tax rates, so there's that.

Those aren't asterisks, those are assholes. Vonnegut would be impressed.

Ok, but maybe start with Economics...

Or maybe start with "socializing and behaving is a society" like half the focus of per-alfabetization classes (the other half being how to use the bathroom).
