  Touch the cow. Do it now.
  

  Would someone called Ben Robin Banks be allowed to plead the fifth when the judge asks his name?

  You are the end result of a “would you push the button” prompt where the prompt was “you have unlimited godlike powers but you appear to all and sundry to be an impetuous child” – Zero, 2022

  Yay, laughter! :D

  It assumes that "Phone" is a variable...

  well, it assumes that the juxtaposition of i and Phone is multiplication, and that said multiplication is commutative...

  ^ okay, that's actually pretty funny.
  
  also, (iPhone)^2 = - Phone^2 only if Phone is a real number.  Which is basically the second thing that spinor said.

  Well, it's true if "Phone" is a complex number too.  It's only if it's a quaternion or something that it fails.

  Does i count as a quaternion?  because of Phone = i, then (iPhone)^2 =  (ii)^2 = (-1)^2 = 1 while -Phone^2 = -(i^2) = - (-1) = 1...waaaaait...I remember there's a way to screw up either commutativity or associativity with just i.
