Thanks for telling me shapes exist!

I know my Italian grandmother had health problems lately, but THIS is how I find out? Nonagon?

What's that face for? That was comedic gold!

Probably an AI generated post. Either way, I hope this is not a tenured professor.

Maybe satire? I really hope so at least.

Or some weird social experiment to see how people react to it?

What's that text on the bottom right? It may be to push an ad

Reminds me of this Dead Internet Theory video.

Also randomly making words hashtags for no reason...
I'm sure #2D will be trending soon

Hang on, WHAT'S THAT SECOND ONE

I learned it as a regular quadrilateral, we weren't fancy enough to use bespoke terms for things.

Reminds me of when you Google something and the answer is hidden in the middle of some article page.
Like you Google what shape is a stop sign and you get this.

Wait until they find out the deep personal relationship between triangles and circles

It looks like this person is talking about Platonic Idealism. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theory_of_forms

You know what's causing me physical pain? The fact the shapes aren't in order of no. of sides. Part of me thinks this post is a cry for help.

A circle is a 1D object.
A disk is a 2D object.
The post is a failure.
Hippopotamus@kbin.social · 2 pts · 2y
Uh… a circle is a 2D object and a disk is a 3D object
MxM111@kbin.social · 2 pts · 2y
Nope. You need one parameter to characterize a circle. Circle dimension is the same as of line. Circle has zero thickness. Circle is 1D-sphere.
Similar to a normal sphere being a 2D surface of a 3D ball, a 1D circle is the edge of 2D disc.
