Alice Memes

The eternal struggle of quantum physicists everywhere! When Professor McGonagall asks "Why is it always you three?" she might as well be talking to Alice, Bob, and Charlie - the infamous trio that haunts every quantum encryption problem and thought experiment in existence. These three hypothetical people have caused more theoretical chaos than any wizarding trio ever could. Next time your quantum key distribution fails spectacularly, you know exactly who to blame. The universe's most notorious troublemakers aren't teenagers with wands - they're the placeholder names keeping cryptographers awake at night!

Economists already treat humans like perfectly rational, frictionless spheres in a vacuum! The Alice in Wonderland confusion here is perfect—economists build elaborate mathematical models where people behave with perfect logic and complete information, while real humans are over here panic-buying toilet paper and spending their rent money on NFTs of digital monkeys. Imagine the economic equivalent of Schrödinger's cat: a consumer simultaneously rational and irrational until observed by the Federal Reserve. Or perhaps we need Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle of Economics—the more precisely you measure someone's spending habits, the less you understand why they bought that ridiculous hat.
