An infinite number of mathematicians walks into a bar.
-
The first orders a beer. The second, half a beer. The third orders a quarter of a beer. The bartender says "you're all idiots", and she pours them two beers.

Alternates (via ChatGPT) ... 1. The bartender exclaims, "This place is getting exponentially crowded!" 2. The bartender says, "I hope you're here for some real ale-gebra!" 3. The bartender asks, "Do you need a non-Euclidean space to fit all of you in?"

Not if she didn't charge them individually. I guess it depends on how you interpret the bill. If I order a sampler platter and everyone partakes I don't itemize each individual mozzarella stick. I mean, it would have been less confusing if they just ordered a pitcher and called it good, but they are using the 2nd glass as a small pitcher, effectively.

No bar I have ever been in would do that. One beer, regardless of the container it comes in, gets charged by the container. Bottle, can, glass, cup, pitcher, even a keg. Even if you only want the glass filled a quarter of the way they are going to charge for the full glass because that is the only way they can charge. That or give it to you free.

I mean, no bar has ever dealt with an infinite number of mathematicians either. Just sayin'

Well technically it wouldn't be infinite. Last call happens for every bar I have been in. Places are packed but they still tell everyone to go home. So then the number is finite. Those served until last call. So that line out the door, round the block, out the city, across the world and universe is just going to have to come back the next night.

But it will take them an infinite amount of time to finish the two beers. “We close at midnight, better drink it fast!”
