@AkivaWeinberger Thanks!

@BalarkaSen I want to write a Riemannian geometry-inspired pun with the word "curveball" but I'm coming up blank

[a certain event] was so much of a curveball that it had nonzero torsion

a curveball rolls along the curve, is twisted along the way

No, if you die, the math chat dies due to overflowing nonweirds

but more importantly, Ted is responsible for most of the activity in his time period of the chat and has a coordinating effect to the dynamics of the chat as a whole

And really, had anyone have worked out who is the Star Bridgate?

cause it is getting distracting
