Coefficient Memes

This is peak academic humor that would make your physics professor snort coffee through their nose. The limerick sets up a tale about a Purdue student teaching a cat Greek letters, but the punchline is pure nerdy brilliance. The cat only learned "μ" (mu) - which is both a Greek letter AND the symbol for the coefficient of friction in physics equations. The visual pun works because the cat literally can't get any "farther" due to friction! It's the kind of joke that separates those who suffered through engineering mechanics from those who had a normal, happy college experience.
