Unless you're Pythagoras. Motherfucker invented the triangle. Shit like that goes a long way.

Pythagoras didn't invent the triangle, the ancient Egyptians did, by trial and error. Pythagoras made them much more compact and affordable though.

Nah, that was Thales. Pythagoras just invented a triangle with a 90° angle.
