My brain is too mushy to do it myself right now, but I wonder what the result would be if we were to consider the alphabet a base-26 number system and added the numbers that correspond to those letters.

actually, fuck it lets go

me (13),(5)

you (25),(15),(20)

5 + 20 = 25 (y)

13 + 15 = 28 (carry)
28 - 26 = 2 (b)

25 + (carried) 1 = 26 (z)

you + me = zby.
