Idk, this really doesn't have to do anything with Pythagora's Theorem

Yeah, it's just the triangle inequality.

Beyond the general "hehe funny meme" Some seem to think there's some kind of math going on in people's heads other than "shortcut"

The knowledge of Pythagoras or math doesn't factor in here at all. Toddlers do this.

Having the knowledge just gives you fancy words for the resulting coincidental shape.
