The headline claims these missiles travel at 10 times the speed of light? Einstein's ghost just spat out his coffee! Nothing with mass can exceed light speed (300,000 km/s), let alone multiply it by 10. Even the most advanced hypersonic missiles barely reach Mach 10 (3.4 km/s). This is like claiming your grandma's scooter can teleport across galaxies! The physics police would like a word with this headline writer... preferably at sub-light speeds.

Einstein's E = mc² just got a hilarious upgrade! On the left, we see the "complete" equation with all its academic complexity: E² = (pc)² + (mc²)² + AI² . Meanwhile, on the right, the simplified version for press conferences: E = mc² + AI . This is basically every scientist trying to explain their research to journalists. "Yes, I spent 7 years deriving this complex relativistic quantum equation, but sure, let's just say 'AI makes energy now' for your headline." The real joke? In 2023, adding "AI" to anything actually does increase its energy... at least in terms of funding and media attention! Physics hasn't changed, but grant applications certainly have.

Breaking news: Scientists shocked to discover that light-speed laser travels at... the speed of light! 🤯 Next up: Water confirmed wet and fire still hot. The headline about a "world-leading laser beam that travels at speed of light" is like bragging your calculator can do math. ALL lasers travel at light speed—it's literally in the name (Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation). That's like advertising a "revolutionary new car with wheels" or a "groundbreaking fish that can swim." Military tech is cool and all, but maybe save the breathless headlines for when the laser can break the laws of physics instead of just... following them perfectly.
