Proof that Geometric Construction Can Solve All Love Affairs
[00:20.35] I love mathematics;
[00:27.34] I'm always seeking that one and only answer
[00:35.35] But what I love more than that
[00:37.85] Is a girl, a childhood friend
[00:40.35] Once again today, desperately, I make a move...
[00:45.84] What a wonderful diamond-shaped earring!
[00:48.36] All four sides are the same length,
[00:51.10] And the opposite sides are parallel...
[00:53.87] Here, there, parallel everywhere
[00:56.11] The diagonals cross each other's midpoints perpendicularly,
[00:59.12] And they even bisect the angles!
[01:01.34] Such a beautiful figure!
[01:03.10] Such a beautiful figure!
[01:06.35] "Oh, really..."
[01:08.09] Why do you recoil so?
[01:11.59] Don't give me that look like you're at a skewed position!
[01:17.12] As I puzzle, the ladies man with the perfect golden-ratio face snorts;
[01:22.10] Don't tell me, are you after her too?
[01:27.36] Geometry time!
[01:28.59] In the middle of the line connecting these two,
[01:32.85] I'll construct a wall that can never be crossed
[01:38.87] (1) Use a compass to draw a circle centered on her
[01:41.35] (2) Do the same for him, with the same size
[01:44.09] (3) Connect the two points of intersection,
[01:46.12] And you have a perpendicular bisecting line!
[01:49.37] Do you see now the power of math?
[01:53.62] Though you destroyed it with the power of muscle...
[02:00.11] Today is the day she was born,
[02:02.35] So I surprised her with a gift, a full-size cake
[02:09.86] Ignoring the fact that I ate 80% of it myself,
[02:14.35] It's the perfect present!
[02:17.13] It's the perfect present!
[02:20.34] "Let's each have half..."
[02:22.35] You said, curtly
[02:25.34] But I already ate 80%, so I'm fine
[02:30.86] "You dummy!" What's this?
[02:32.86] If my math skills were a pegasus,
[02:35.86] Yours would surely be a mucus-spewing yet cute bug!
[02:41.36] Geometry time!
[02:42.57] Bisection? Why, roponiccho such as that
[02:47.11] Is as simple as paramahamolger!
[02:52.85] (1) Draw a circle centered on the pointed end
[02:55.35] (2) Do the same at the two intersections, the same size
[02:57.86] (3) Connect that intersection with the pointed end,
[03:00.59] And you have an angle-bisecting line!
[03:03.38] Although the cake is a mess now,
[03:05.35] So it seems you're not very happy...
[03:08.35] ...Now I've done it!
[03:09.38] Because of my math, now she hates me...
[03:13.35] Things used to be better; we even took a photo holding hands
[03:23.34] Nothing so ambiguous as a red thread of fate,
[03:28.10] I thought we were connected by a definite line segment...
[03:32.12] Geometry time!
[03:32.86] I'll cut this photo of my memories into two,
[03:37.62] And reduce this love cleanly down to zero
[03:43.37] (1) Draw a circle centered on the hands along the line
[03:45.86] (2) Do the same at the two intersections, the same size
[03:48.60] (3) Connect that intersection with the hands,
[03:50.85] And you have a perpendicular-line farewell...
[03:53.85] But when she saw me discarding that photo,
[03:58.37] She looked ready to cry, and took off running...
[04:13.08] Though I lost sight of you,
[04:15.60] I heard you were seen on the main street
[04:18.61] The shortest route there from here
[04:21.10] Is a perpendicular line...
[04:23.84] Geometry time!
[04:24.85] The reason I got into mathematics
[04:29.60] Was so I could find the shortest distance to you...
[04:35.36] (1) Draw a circle centered here across that road
[04:38.10] (2) Do the same at the two intersections, the same size
[04:40.37] (3) Run toward that intersecting point,
[04:43.12] And cut through the trees...
[04:45.85] The branches scrape me, and I feel no pain,
[04:50.38] I feel no exhaustion, but what I do feel
[04:53.35] Is a passion that can't be put in numbers...
[04:55.12] I found you,
[04:56.10] I told you I love you,
[04:57.10] You smiled;
[04:58.37] My one and only answer...
