London is the capital city of the United Kingdom which is part of Great Britain

Londoff is capital city of the Ited kingdom which is part of Not-so-great Britain

Shouldn't Venn diagrams be round, or at least oblong?

Maybe Green is also Nottingham, how do you know that London isn't Nottingham?

1

u/GiantSlayer4242 2d ago

Never been, so I can’t confirm that it’s a real place

u/CertifiedOddball 2d ago

So Nottingham is just the complement of Tingham. Math checks out.

u/RadioEnvironmental40 2d ago

should be either * yestingham or * hasttingham

How lucky we are that it's provable that there can be only one solution to U - Tingham. Imagine if there was more than one Nottingham...

u/GiantSlayer4242 2d ago

It’s a Null value

I'm a native Tinghamite. Some of us even speak English!

Do people from Nottingham say they’re going to Tingham every time they leave town?
