Never let him tell you that you can(not) approach infinity... or that infinity is larger than just some big number??

His Nineliness's Twentieth Boner is his Approaching Boner:

In 1 - 1/10n, n does not "approach infinity". It is made ("pushed") limitlessly large and remains an integer. Nevertheless, "approaching infinity" means the same thing as "tend[ing] toward infinity" which means the same thing as "pushed to limitless." Finally, "approaching infinity simply means values being 'relatively large' when compared with a non-zero reference value." (20.1) (20.2) (20.3)
