What? Addition isn't just for numbers. This is literally no different from adding vectors. I'm sure you've seen that in school?

What do you mean subtracting a cat from a dog doesn't make sense? Heh, ackshualllyyy I was imagining a vector of pets, where we have still have a dog but now a cat deficit of one, because the cat died and now we have a big hole in our family... nothing personnel kid. surely you learnt that in school?

The point is, making a vector, that's not addition.

  • This is quite literally no different than 1i + 2j. Or if you hate vectors like i or j, just complex numbers -- 1 + 2i. I'm not sure why you feel the rudeness is helping you get a point across, because it's very much not.

    • I am being no ruder than you are, more or less.

      I don't expect to change the mind of someone who thinks that addition and defining a vector are the same thing. You've just redefined generally common terms and then started accusing people of being uneducated for not sharing your own eccentric definitions. Poor show.
