Evolution's Procrastination Problem
The myometrium—that specialized layer of uterine smooth muscle—is basically evolution's most epic procrastinator. It spends 9 months doing absolutely nothing, then suddenly has to perform the physiological equivalent of a marathon with zero preparation! The meme brilliantly portrays Satan himself as impressed by this chaotic biological design choice. Even the prince of darkness is like "respect" for this particularly diabolical bit of reproductive engineering. From a biomechanical perspective, it's like giving someone a Ferrari that's been in storage for months and expecting them to immediately win the Grand Prix. Nature's efficiency at its most questionably designed!
