Listen, we all love a good public Facebook post with flat out wrong comments by unhinged people. It's what this country was founded on.

Twitter user @thomas_violence recovered from a hangover with one such Facebook post, in which the question of "How many triangles?" sparked lots of confidence all around, but no logic.

My favorite answer is "I have reviewed my answer there are12." So quick to prove everyone wrong they didn't even need that space bar.

And it keeps getting better:

"Ken said 7." Well, if Ken said 7 then there's 7!

But after posting some of the most amusing responses, Thomas started receiving answers from people who felt they needed him to know that they, at least, knew the answer.

Thomas has now had the privilege of receiving the most correct answers from the smartest people on Twitter, and that's all that matters. Too bad we can't be enlightened on those answers as well.

But the moment we've all been waiting for is that there is a correct answer:

Just kidding. It's this:

Thank God for Jackie Calico, now we can all rest easy tonight.
