"How many answers are there to the equation:
“2+2 = __”?
Well, there are infinite answers:
Hmmm… Let’s forget about addition:
You know what? Let’s forget about addition and multiplication
Let’s forget addition, multiplication, and division.
Huh.. Let’s forget… uhhh… addition, multiplication, division, and subtraction.
Let’s forget addition and multipli… you know what? Let’s just forget about numbers altogether!
No numbers OR letters? Sure thing!
What about a SINGULAR number that ISN’T 4?
And the list goes on.
Even one of these categories can be extended indefinitely, continuously, forever. You may be saying, “Connor… you had me go back and read about the tea cup… just for you to tell me about it all… AGAIN!?!?” You’re close, but as I said, I’m making an addition here, and I hope to make it a memorable one. Not only are all of these answers acceptable, but they’re also EQUAL. No one answer is worth more than the others, literally or figuratively. Within a world of infinite solutions, there also lies infinite EQUAL answers for EVERY layer of the tea cup. There are infinite 1st place, best answers. There are infinite 2nd place, lesser answers, and so on. There may even be infinite rankings from 1st place to ∞th place, though infinity isn’t technically a number… you know what I mean! At the end of the day, there are A LOT of possibilities, and many of them are truly equal with each other.
