Resolves YES iff I start officially dating a girl before I finish reading the entirety of Allen Hatcher’s Algebraic Topology. (As of October 1, 2025, I am on Section 1.1.)

Allen Hatcher would be disappointed in you if this resolved yes

To finish, you'll have to read in public. Ladies can't resist anyone who knows their way around a cohomological cup product (chapter 3).

bought Ṁ10 YES

It's 559 pages of algebraic topology. I think you have a good chance of meeting someone before finishing it cover to cover.

@guiltybystander But how will he have the time to get a girlfriend whilst he's captivated by such a great text?

@Jasonb Don't make me regret my M10 bet!!
