Thank You Expanding Brain

Thank you Tank u Tan q Sin q Cos u

A four-panel expanding-brain meme shows increasingly cosmic brain scans alongside progressively abbreviated versions of “Thank you,” ending with the mathematical expressions “Sin q” and “Cos u.” The joke is that a simple expression of gratitude is humorously elevated into advanced-looking mathematical notation, so it is used as a sarcastic or playful reaction to say thanks in an overly intellectual way.
