I once tried to start a conversation with a girl at a party, but she immediately said she had a boyfriend and pointed at him.
So I had a great, long talk with her boyfriend the whole evening, drinking beers, making jokes and laughing hysterically, while the girl stood in the corner by herself with a glass of water, looking pissed, car keys dangling from her finger.What a great night.

I’m going to go with “what is a story that started out real but you made up the end in your head on your way home?”

Why is it millennials that "ruined" it in your opinion ? I assumed it disappeared because everybody has mobile phone with a clock on it.

Yeah it's definitely due to phones, I was only joking about millenials. Seems like something the news would say.

Millenials destroyed the spacetime continuum in 2168 after trying to make a fidget spinner out of black holes.

Look at the inverse of the square root function, f(x)=x² (https://www.desmos.com/calculator/2v5gzbhru8)
You can get the sqrt of a given x by looking at the y axis. E.g. the value of y=4 has two solutions, x=2 and x=-2. This however does not mean that the sqrt of -4 is also 2! If you look at graph you can see that there are no solutions for y less than 0.
sqrt(-1) , sqrt(-2) (i ill omit imaginary numbers here) and so on do not have a solution. There is nothing you can replace with such that x × x is < 0 because multiplying two negatives always nets a positive.

I really don't like the sqrt shorthand.
They knew.

CustardFist would literally never make up anything! Look at their profile! They meticulously document every aspect of their real actual life in comic form!

This sentence made no sense to me as it directly contradicted the previous one. But it's just a confusion on my part between the function called square root and the number called square root; I've edited my comment. Thanks for correcting me!

Yeah, I see how that can happen. Very confusing to have the same name for two things differentiated only by the use of a definite or indefinite article.
