Alternating current Memes

The scientist's eureka moment—discovering that Washington DC's skyline perfectly forms an alternating current waveform. Every electrical engineer secretly hopes their city planning committee has been infiltrated by physics nerds. Next research grant: finding the resonant frequency of the Lincoln Memorial.

From Direct Current to Alternating Current—a perfect metaphor for our political system. Top row shows the stable, unchanging DC power of Washington, while the bottom reveals what happens when you flip to AC. That inverted Capitol building isn't just upside down; it's showing us what happens when polarity reverses every election cycle. Just like AC power, our politics oscillate between extremes with impressive regularity. At least electrical engineers have the decency to document their frequency changes.
