Invisible Memes

Scientists: "We're pretty sure 85% of the universe is dark matter." Everyone else: "Cool, show me." Scientists: *gestures vaguely at everything with Tom-from-Tom-and-Jerry energy* That awkward moment when astronomers claim most of the universe is made of something we can't see, detect, or interact with in any meaningful way. Dark matter is basically the cosmic equivalent of telling someone "I totally have a girlfriend, she just goes to another school... in Canada... you wouldn't know her." Yet somehow it's holding entire galaxies together! The ultimate invisible friend that's actually scientifically plausible.
