This meme brilliantly repurposes the infamous Suez Canal blockage incident as a metaphor for atherosclerosis. The narrow canal labeled "HEART ARTERY" with the massive cargo ship "CHOLESTEROL" wedged across it is basically what cardiologists see in their nightmares. Just like that ship disrupted global shipping for days, your LDL cholesterol is plotting to turn your coronary arteries into a traffic jam that no amount of tugboats can fix. My colleagues in cardiology would call this "anatomically accurate humor."
