Be Careful Around Strange Matter

The comic brilliantly plays with the physics concept of "strange matter" - a theoretical type of quark matter that could convert normal matter upon contact. Jon warns Garfield about strange matter, but our feline friend couldn't resist investigating... and promptly gets transformed into a swirly, quantum-warped version of himself! In reality, strange matter is hypothesized to contain strange quarks and could potentially be extremely dangerous - if it exists, touching it might turn you into more strange matter through a chain reaction. Thankfully, Garfield's quantum transformation is purely fictional, otherwise we'd have a cat-shaped strange matter apocalypse on our hands!

Engineers Walking Through The Math Department

The eternal feud between mathematicians and engineers continues. While mathematicians insist on calculating π to the millionth digit, engineers are over here like "π=3 is close enough for government work." Pure mathematicians would rather die than see someone round π to 3 when its actual value is 3.14159... (and continues forever). Meanwhile, engineers regularly commit this mathematical sin because sometimes you just need to build the damn bridge already.
