explaining to someone who is not completely insane that "categories," "groups," and "sets" are three entirely different things

Man, everything should just be a function.
Once had an interview where the guy asked me “what is a function” and kept telling me I was wrong when I said it was a map between two sets, he wanted a very specific definition of a function as a set of ordered pairs of elements of each set smh.
