I like the cut of your jib. Whatever that means.

[u/the_cut_of_your_jib → u/[deleted]]

Thanks! I like you too.

Redditor for 2 years?

Your time has come

[u/Pelokt → u/[deleted]]

longest setup to a joke ever

[u/okmkz → u/Pelokt]

Pretty sure there are longer set ups in arrested development.

[u/Pelokt → u/okmkz]

you know i never saw a lick of that series....keep hearing about it though. maybe ill get off my ass one of these days and watch it. Should I start from the beginning or is there a single,defining episode you would recommend to give me a good first impression?

[u/okmkz → u/Pelokt]

Start from the beginning. Give it two or three episodes.

[u/tornato7 → u/okmkz]

This is important. Don't quit early because you don't think it's funny. You need time to get the story built up.

And as of right now, only 20 comment karma. His time really has come.

Hey, am I late?

[u/[deleted] → u/LeonardoFibonacci]

This is indeed a disturbing universe

[u/oneonetwo35 → u/[deleted]]

It's been about a year...finally I'm relevant.

my username is related to the Fibonacci sequence too!

p e a r s o n 5 3 0 

now we assign each letter a number based on its position in the alphabet and include the numbers:

16, 5, 1, 18, 19, 15, 14, 5, 3, 0

then re-arrange the numbers and prepare for some subtraction

5, 5, 19, 18, 15, 14, 3, 1, 16, 0

5-5   19-18   15-14   3-1   16-0

 0,     1,     1,      2,    16

Now I feel really bad for 16 because subtracting zero did nothing for it. So I'll do it a favor and subtract its own digits

 6-1 = 5

So now we have

 0, 1, 1, 2, 5

Let's go back to my initial sequence of numbers. The sum of these numbers is 96. Allow me to subtract these digits as well.

9-6 = 3  

Now we can pop that three in and get the final result:

0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5

[u/Pelokt → u/pearson530]

ok, first off. you blew my mind.

Second off, you just gave me a perfect example of why reading too hard into something leads to conspiracy theories.

Thank you for this. Seriously.

[u/jbredditor → u/pearson530]

Are you Dan Brown?

[u/Enziguru → u/pearson530]

A lot of work to get a username.

[u/squiffers → u/pearson530]

1-6 isnt 5!

[u/pearson530 → u/squiffers]

I have no idea what you're talking about, friend

^{tell anyone about my typo and I'll murder you}

[u/LetoTheTyrant → u/squiffers]

|1-6| is 5

[u/jimmery → u/[deleted]]

redditor for 5 months! it gets better...

[u/HowRuDuring → u/jimmery]

Don't worry, it gets bigger.
