    Now make a square out of squiggly yarn

    String theorists claim this is the true shape of spacetime!

    A square? A square?! Wake up sheeple! That things not even a rombus! Don't you see the lies? Look at the lines! Look! Not all rhombuses are squares, but all squares are rhombuses! All squares are rhombuses and look at this thing they try to call a square. Where are the parallel lines? There's got to be parallel lines, don't you see, or then it's not a rombus and all squares are rhombuses. Don't forget that, don't let them take that fact from you and perpetuate their geometric lies. Does no one even remember what a rombus is? This is, this is basic geometry here that you should have learned in middle school or elementary school, but then you just forget it, and let people trick you with these misleading definitions and fancy diagrams but you have to remember that a Square. Is. A. Rombus.

      And all rhombus are parallelograms. By definition opposing sides must be parallel.

        YES. YES! A square is a rombus is a parallelogram! You see it too! There are no parallels in this diagram, only lies and trickery!

    The angle of the arc in degrees is (180π-90)/π², or if you're a person of culture, the angle is (2π-1)/2π

        That angle doesn't count. It's just for constructing the straight lines; it's not part of the "square".

    Is a corner with an angle of 180 degrees a corner? If yes, then all shapes have infinite corners and infinite edges.

      The almost-circle thingy is one side, which is touching the two straight lines, which are joined by another circular segment at the rightmost part. That makes four sides.
