Inverse seconds Memes

The physics professor has stumbled upon a bizarre internet phenomenon: Reddit's obsession with 1/s (inverse seconds, or frequency measured in Hertz). The joke brilliantly plays on the unit conversion from time to frequency domains—where seconds -1 equals Hertz. Hence the punchline about Redditors' brains "hertzing" from their peculiar fixation. It's a perfect interdisciplinary joke that only works if you know both physics units and how academics love diagnosing weird internet subcultures they've just discovered.
