To Mess With Physicists
Want to watch a physicist have an existential crisis? Just casually mention that the fine structure constant (1/137) appears in ancient religious texts. This devilishly clever meme taps into the cosmic coincidence that 1/137 is one of physics' most mysterious numbers - governing electromagnetic interactions without any obvious reason why it has that specific value. Nothing makes scientists more uncomfortable than when their precious constants seemingly pop up in mystical contexts. Is it a cosmic joke? Divine mathematics? Or just Patrick Star being chaotically evil? Either way, watching physicists try to explain away the "coincidence" is better entertainment than any particle accelerator could provide.
