That is pretty much a known paradox presented by Zeno of Elea called "Achilles and the tortoise"

You can't divide by zero. Yes you fucking can. I have two apples, I don't divide by anything so I still have two apples. The mathematicians just don't want to admit defeat.

Nope. If you still have two apples, then you've divided them by one, not zero. (You've split them between yourself and no one else = 1)

Dividing by zero is a bit like pouring water into buckets which are infinitely small in size. They are so small that they effectively don't exist. Therefore the water could fill an infinite number of those buckets; hence anything divided by zero = infinity.

This is James; well, Jaymes. Sorry, am I interrupting something?

OT: Mine would have to be this one:

"There are two doors, (one to salvation and one to damnation) and two men guarding them. One of them tells only the truth, while the other one tells only a lie. They both recommend you to go through their own door, and have even given you the chance to ask both of them one question. What question do you ask, and how do you know which door is correct?"

The answer is this: The person asking the riddle is himself a liar. Both men, (like most people) are people that actively differentiate between lying and being truthful. Watch their faces melt after saying that; because of course now the riddle has no answer!

NOTE: 0.9 recurring does not equal 1! There are different sizes of infinity!

But I haven't divided by anything, so they still exist as a pair of apples! Mind. Blown. Like I said, they just don't want to admit defeat. This is why I do literature and not maths.
