'''Fictional ~~googlology~~''' ('''FG''') is the niche hobby of creating fictional numbers, often above an absolute value of [w:Absolute Infinite] or below 0, often assigning {{wp|Unicode|Unicode}} characters to them. Fictional googology was common, as well as widely accepted on [[TextWall]], but it faces near-universal stigmatization among OWOT's users. While fictional googology is meant to be an offshoot of {{wp|Googology|standard googology}}, it is typically regarded by OWOT's users as more of an art project that primarily serves as entertainment for children than a mathematical pursuit. People who engage in fictional googology are known as '''fictional googologists''', '''FGers''', or '''FGists'''.
