a person who studies abstract mathematical concepts, and will do literally anything to not study any real life application.
Person 1: I might major as a pure mathematician
Person 2: Why don't you do something more helpful, like an electrical engineer?
Person 1: I don't like society

So, there's this mathematician right? I saw an add he put out on YouTube. This Asian guy. I can't (for the life of me) remember his name so you'll have to forgive me. But this guy is selling math classes and HE said about HIMSELF what I said about mathematical aptitude (That people who perform mathematics at a high level don't actual DO math. Rather, they've internalized mathematics.) So.... RIGHT AGAIN!!! The only way anyone could ever be more right then me is if they hopped ass first on to a chainsaw, cut themselves in half (vertically), and threw their left half in the dumpster.
Hym "And this mathematician is selling math classes. He said what I said almost word for word. Here the sales pitch: He says 'As someone with a natural aptitude, I've internalized mathematics. But most people aren't like me. They actually have to DO math. So I've crated this coarse to help people learn and do math and so on and so forth' It's great! That guy is great. Like I said, I can't remember his name. I wish I did."
