Science Is Science!
When someone tries to gatekeep the scientific community by claiming psychology and sociology aren't "real sciences," my blood pressure spikes faster than a poorly controlled lab experiment. These fields use empirical research, statistical analysis, and peer review just like the "hard sciences" - they just study the most complex system in the universe: human behavior. Dismissing them as "only social ones" is like saying astronomy isn't science because you can't put a star in a test tube. The scientific method doesn't care what you're studying, it cares how you study it!

The Academic Caste System
Sociology showing up to the natural sciences dinner party is like bringing a knife to a nuclear war. The hierarchy is real, folks. Physics, Chemistry, and Biology sit there in their fancy top hats and tiaras, sipping tea made from Nobel Prize tears while Sociology stands there with a pink hat and a bachelor's degree. The academic caste system at its finest - where your funding is directly proportional to how many equations you use per page. Next time someone asks why sociologists have imposter syndrome, just show them this.

When Engineering Disciplines Don't Speak The Same Language
The ultimate engineering hierarchy captured in one image! Mechanical engineers create a meme only they understand, and suddenly everyone else feels like medieval peasants trying to comprehend calculus. The "EE/CpE" in the title refers to Electrical Engineering and Computer Engineering majors who are left scratching their heads at mechanical jokes about stress tensors, fluid dynamics, or that one bolt that somehow holds the entire machine together. Engineering disciplines are basically academic kingdoms with their own languages, and mechanical engineers just love reminding everyone they invented the wheel.

The Academic Food Chain
The eternal academic caste system on full display! Physicists looking down on engineers with that unmistakable "I derive the equations, you just use them" expression. Pure theoretical superiority in human form. The hierarchy is real - physicists discover the laws of nature, engineers merely apply them, and Juan... well, Juan's just trying to pass Intro to Mechanics. Next time your engineer friend says "close enough," just flash this look and watch them dissolve into practical insignificance.

The Great Mathematical Divide
Pure mathematicians would rather draw 25 UNO cards than admit statistics has any mathematical legitimacy. The eternal academic feud continues! These are the same folks who spend decades proving theorems nobody asked for, but heaven forbid they acknowledge the field that actually helps scientists interpret real data. Next thing you know, they'll be claiming applied math is just "physics with extra steps." The mathematical hierarchy is more rigid than a perfectly straight line—and twice as imaginary.
