I Think I Solved The Mystery Of Jake Johnson's Face

Can you check my math here?

I’ve been working on a theorem the past few days and I think it’s finally ready for peer review. Will you look it over for me?

It goes like this: 1 David Krumholtz as the elf in Tim Allen’s The Santa Clause plus one Oscar Isaac (any) equals 1 Jake Johnson of Fox’s “New Girl.”

Take a peek at my work…

1 Krumholtz Elf + 1 Isaac = 1 Johnson

See what I did there? It feels true to me no matter how I see them. Moving, emoting, creasing their mouths blankly in the background of other people’s work. Doesn’t matter! These boys have skulls, hairs, and vibes that are entwined.

And I get it, the first time you see the equation on a page it might not seem 100% evident, but maybe looking at it in another order would help:

1 Isaac + 1 Krumholtz Elf = 1 Johnson

Anything? It’s clear as a bell for me, man. One actor, a versatile acclaim daddi. The other, a brassy character. Their son, living.

Let’s take it from the rear and start with the finish:

1 Johnson = 1 Isaac + 1 Krumholtz Elf

See what I’m saying?

Anyway I’m not a mathematician, I might’ve not carried a one or PEMDASed at some point—let me know if it checks out.
