i understand most of the jokes and i think laughing about statistical data and the fibonacci squence is borderline autism
does that make me a bully?

i'd say that it makes you someone who doesn't really understand autism

no, it makes you a bit of an idiot.
how on earth can the subject matter of comedy be defined as autistic?

you don't find it funny. Cool. But that doesn't mean it isn't to others. Even though this is the internet, and this may come as a shock to you, yours isn't the only valid opinion out there.

People find humour in whatever they want. and those that work with that kind of maths or science day in, day out, are likely to find humour in it. It's no more or less "autistic" than finding humour in any work-related subject.

i don't think you understand the meaning of the word "hyperbole"
and i'm sorry, but it is still intensely nerdy to find fourier transforms and poisson distributions funny, no matter what you say
