Forums Memes

The eternal battle of online science forums, immortalized in four panels of pure academic chaos! Top row: r/AskPhysics, where you've got the pretentious quantum enthusiast asking about pre-Big Bang time with "super hyper knowledge" (translation: read half a Brian Greene book) versus the electricity specialist having an existential meltdown because someone dared to ask about cosmology. Bottom row: r/askmath, featuring the virgin quadratic equation asker versus the chad "do your homework" responder. Nothing captures academic gatekeeping quite like watching someone ask about time before the Big Bang while another person frantically screams that electricity is the only valid physics topic. Meanwhile, in math land, asking for the solutions to x²+x=0 gets you the digital equivalent of "get off my lawn!" The hierarchy of academic snobbery is real, and it's spectacular.
