Joules Memes

The eternal struggle of physicists everywhere—seeing energy measured in kilowatt-hours when it clearly should be in joules. That 2583 kWh is actually 9.3×10 9 joules, and nothing triggers a physicist's fight-or-flight response faster than consumer-friendly units. We're the same people who get irrationally annoyed when someone says "weight" instead of "mass" or when temperature isn't in Kelvin. The struggle is real, and that twitching orange creature is the physical manifestation of our souls when confronted with such blasphemy against the SI unit system.
