Shared with my godfather, a mathematician at a Catholic university with a calculator collecting hobby. The only way this could be any more up his alley is if there was a Star Trek joke in there somewhere. XD

Look at what the button on the bottom right says.

There was a time when this would have been obvious satire, but these days you just don't know.

If 8 people, standing in an octagon, press those buttons at the same time, at midnight, the rapture activates.

Do they have to be Christians? Because if not, I can round up seven more people real quick and finally be left behind in peace.

Any human will do as long as they can push a button.

It's a Voltron of irrelevancy. Two things that have been rendered completely useless in a modern world, mushed together.

Hey, buttons aren’t useless. You watch your mouth!!

As a lover of 70s/80s sci-fi, I agree. But how many of us still carry calculators around?

captain_aggravated@sh.itjust.works · 1 pts · 19d

I keep a Casio scientific calculator in my work bag. Because sometimes I have oily hands and need to do algebra.
