You must be confused 1-1=(no remainder), this is real math solving
things i have no bananas left for you thus you have of imagine/dream
of one to see one there.
You see you have to buckets with one ball in each you poor the ball
from one bucket to the other, I will not even discuss such thing that
there could be a numeric value left in the empty bucket.
As far as i care you can put the bucket on the head and look funny,
thus you are a bucket head of no value.
The empty set is dreamed up, i put my values in computational theory
that solves real problems, not imaginary.

Yes and there is no fucking elephants in my wallet either, so i do not
need to count them.

No you do not count no dollars and no elephants, you may count a
little bananas and that is why i do not trust you.
