Carbon Dating: When Chemistry Gets Romantic

This brilliant pun works on multiple levels! In the meme, a lump of carbon (looking way older than its "profile picture") is on a date with a diamond (who's "been under a lot of pressure"). It's the perfect scientific double entendre - carbon dating is both a romantic encounter between carbon-based materials AND the radiometric dating technique used to determine the age of archaeological specimens. Meanwhile, diamonds are literally just carbon atoms that have been subjected to extreme pressure over millions of years. The perfect chemistry pickup line doesn't exi-- wait, it does and it's this meme!
