The academic pipeline illustrated with brutal efficiency. Physics and math majors split from the same educational trunk, only to converge at "unemployed with a superiority complex."

Nothing says "I understand the fundamental laws of the universe but not how to monetize that knowledge" quite like this diagram. Ten years of studying quantum mechanics just to explain to your parents why you're still living in their basement.
