-1/12 is a "residue", it's a "leftover piece" of 1+2+3+4..., the one bit that can be made to act like a number

I don't know about all that, but the length of this thread is definitely approaching infinity.

My favourite thing about infinite series is that the basic fundamentals of maths can be used to do weird things. For example, if you had a hotel with infinite rooms, all of which were occupied, and then a bus of infinite passengers appeared, you could fit them in.

How? Get the customers who already had rooms to multiply their room number by 2, and move into that one. Any number doubled is guaranteed to be even. Which leaves an infinite number of odd numbered rooms to be given to the infinite bus passengers!
