Heikegani Memes

The irony is absolutely delicious here! Carl Sagan, one of science's greatest champions of critical thinking, would be rolling in his cosmic grave at this meme. The first quote is genuine Sagan wisdom—be skeptical, question everything. Then BAM! The punchline shows him excitedly believing an absolutely bonkers evolutionary tale about samurai crabs because... someone else said so? 😂 FYI, while Heikegani crabs do have shell patterns resembling faces, the samurai selection story is mostly folklore. This meme brilliantly skewers how even the most rational minds can fall for appealing nonsense when it comes from a perceived authority. We're all susceptible to confirmation bias—even legendary astronomers!
