The Shocking Case Of Stolen Current
The historical rivalry between Tesla and Edison just got a modern upgrade! This brilliant wordplay hinges on the fact that Thomas Edison was Nikola Tesla's famous rival and competitor in the "War of Currents." Tesla pioneered AC (alternating current) while Edison pushed DC (direct current). So when your Tesla car gets stolen, it's literally no longer in your current possession - making it an "Edison" because the electricity and the car have been... direct-ly taken from you! The shower thought that sparked this joke deserves a Nobel Prize in Comedy Physics.

Tesla Is Love, Edison Is Loud
The eternal struggle between Tesla and Edison perfectly captured in classroom form. Tesla, the brilliant introvert who mumbled groundbreaking ideas about alternating current, while Edison, the business-savvy extrovert, simply shouted Tesla's ideas louder and got the credit. Some scientific rivalries never die, they just get recycled into meme format. The historical equivalent of writing your name on someone else's lab report.

The Paranormal Distribution Of Scientific Credit
The perfect statistical pun doesn't exi— Oh wait, there it is! Just like Edison was always trying to take credit for Tesla's work, the "paranormal distribution" is basically just the normal distribution wearing a cheap Halloween costume. This brilliantly combines the historic rivalry between these two electrical titans with some nerdy stats humor. And honestly, the ghost curve is exactly how probability feels when you're desperately searching for statistical significance at 3 AM. Your data either follows a nice, predictable bell curve or it's just a spooky apparition haunting your research papers.

Washington A.C.: When The Capital Gets Electrified
The scientist's dream has come true - Washington DC has been converted to alternating current! That waveform showing the DC skyline as an AC signal is peak electrical engineering humor. Instead of Direct Current (DC), the capital is now oscillating between positive and negative potentials like a properly functioning democracy should. Tesla would be so proud, while Edison would be absolutely fuming in his grave. Electrical engineers everywhere are quietly snickering at this perfect fusion of electrical principles and architectural silhouettes.
