I Am Sorry Newton...
Newton's ghost just found out his corpuscular theory of light wasn't completely wrong after all! The meme brilliantly pits classical Newtonian physics against quantum mechanics, where light behaves as both a wave AND a particle. Poor Newton theorized light as tiny particles (corpuscles) in the 1600s, got overshadowed by wave theory for centuries, then quantum physics comes along with wave-particle duality and basically says "you were kinda right!" The White Rabbit from Alice in Wonderland breaking the news to "Apple Man" is pure scientific comedy gold. Newton's probably spinning in his grave fast enough to generate electricity right now.
