:[Describe panel here]
:Mr. President, I'm afraid we can't build your border wall.
:The "coastline paradox" tells us that because coastlines are self-similar, the concept of length doesn't apply. The smaller the measuring stick we use, the greater the length we will measure.
:What? Why=
:Part of the u.S.-mexico border is the "coastline" of the rio grande. Therefore we must conclude that any border wall would be of infinite length
:Therefore, it will cost infinity dollars, which will be a non-starter with deficit hawks.
:What if we just use bigger measuring sticks?
:No can do.
:That'd result in us losing an arbitrarily small quantity of land, which would make us look weak on the world stage.
:If the russians get word that we're measuring a fractal-dimension border with a euclidean ruler, they'll land troops in washington by tomorrow morning.
:This is a tough situation. I'd better call the secretary of mathematics.
:Hello, I need to measure a thing.
:Whoa, slow down. Could you please state the problem more generally.P
