I remember the proof that 1=2. But in that one you divide by zero.

It reminds me of the proof of "All billiard balls are the same color" or "all lines are parallel". These are basically improper uses of inductive proofs.

1 + 1 can equal 1:

1 Rabbit + 1 Lion = 1 Lion

Or, 1 + 1 can equal 100:

1 Male Rabbit + 1 Female Rabbit = 100 Rabbits.

Oh, I know. I debated on putting it as 1 + 1 could equal OVER 9000!!!!!, but that didn't seem very believable Tongue

The over 9,000!!!!! joke seems to be outdated Tongue

Also I love how you mentioned rabbits!

Short version:

1 + 1 = a baby

2 + 1 = NO. Just no.

Well, then.

1 male flea + 1 female flea = 6,010,030 fleas = 1 infestation

6,010,030 = 1 melinda

1 + 2 = letter to penthouse forum

The second one could provide interesting results. Multiple babies, perhaps.
