OK, nobody's supposed to be going out so here's something to keep your minds occupied...

Post a picture of a triangle whose inside angles add up to 270°.
 
Reminds me of:

A man leaves his cabin and walks 1 mile due south, he then walks 1 mile due east where he sees a bear so he runs 1 mile due north back to his cabin.
What colour was the bear?
 
I want to say w**** but I can't as that'll show bias and imply privilege.
 
They're a bit off that anyway.

Of course, there are no cabins there and where there are cabins (and a similar journey is possible), there are no bears, despite what you see on some commercialmas cards!
 
Well if you want to be accurate, you cannot have a triangle with inside angles adding up to 270 degrees.
Although you can have a spherical triangle where that is true.
 
Surely a spherical triangle is still a triangle, just drawn on a sphere. Taking it a step further, since the "outside" of a spherical triangle can still be coloured in as a single, contiguous area, it could be described as being a spherical triangle whose "inside" angles can be almost 900° if the shortest edge is very short. Possibly stretching it a bit though!
