no i just don’t fucking understand why the naked woman matters here.
Could be fucking anything, a pile of a billion dollars. Three turtles, or a goat, it’s the same joke.

I don’t think it’s the same joke when it’s three turtles or a goat, because the joke is “I think I can get close enough…to engage in unspecified sex acts with this woman.”
You think the same chemicals that turned the frickin frogs gay is responsible for this aversion to sexual thoughts? “Could it not be a naked woman? That clutches my pearls.”

“I think I can get close enough…to engage in unspecified sex acts with this woman.”
that’s what i would assume, but then again it never states anything, so this is like walking into a fucking storage shed and seeing a colonoscopy going on. It’s just fucking weird.

Exactly, it’s the same joke regardless so why get bent out of shape over it?
KillingTimeItself@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 months ago
i mean yeah, i guess so, but that’s not what im confused over.
I just want to know why specifically it was written with a nude woman? It never alluded to anything in particular.

It could be a research grant.
KillingTimeItself@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 months ago
engineers love research grants, well known behaviorism of an engineer.

Could be fucking anything
Like a naked woman.
KillingTimeItself@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 months ago
i mean yeah, that’s one of the options. Could also be an orphan source.

The engineer will never reach her, but his boner will.

im pretty sure most people have arms. An engineer almost certainly does.

Because a sexual relationship requires 2 people to touch, so it is a relatable setup.
KillingTimeItself@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 months ago
yeah but like, you don’t need to specify that one individual is naked. If that’s a required factoid of the statement, the engineer, mathematician, and physicist should also be naked. But there’s no mention of that.
Now i don’t have much experience in relationships, particularly inter personal ones, but to my knowledge, you are generally clothed most of the time.
Croquette@sh.itjust.works 6 months ago
You are overthinking it. This is just a premise to setup the joke that an engineer deals with approximation while the other two give up because they’ll never reach 0.
It could be a bowl of ice cream for all that matters, but people like corny jokes, so that’s it.
KillingTimeItself@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 months ago
no i understood that part. Unless the naked woman has something to do with that part of the joke itself, then i don’t know why it’s mentioned.
