Well, darling, when you add two Irrational Numbers together, they can sometimes magically cancel each other out in such a way that the sum ends up being a rational number. It's like mixing oil and water and somehow getting a delicious vinaigrette. Math can be a wild ride, honey.

That simply isn't true. The sum of two irrational numbers CAN BE rational, but it can also be irrational. As an example, the square root of 2 plus the square root of 2 is irrational.

An irrational number plus an irrational number is NOT ALWAYS a rational number. For example, pi + pi = 2xpi, which is still irrational.
