Negative Cow Vector Space Joke

my dad was helping me with linear algebra once and he said “you can use anything for a vector space. you can make a vector space with cows as long as you define what a ‘negative cow’ would be” then i started crying cause that made it worse what’s dad math?

A social media post describes a father explaining linear algebra using cows as an example of a vector space, including the idea of a “negative cow.” The joke is that the explanation is mathematically valid but emotionally absurd, making the confused narrator cry even more; the reply asks what “dad math” means.
