Linearity Memes

The eternal battlefield of math vs. physics, illustrated perfectly! The meme shows the linearity of integration (swapping the order of integration and summation) which mathematicians treat as a trivial identity. Meanwhile, physicists are having an absolute meltdown over it. This is basically every physics class ever. The mathematician calmly says "obviously, by Fubini's theorem..." while the physicist screams internally about convergence conditions and whether this will break their quantum field calculations. The calm SpongeBob vs. panicking SpongeBob is the universal language of academic anxiety! Fun fact: Physicists routinely swap integrals and infinite sums with reckless abandon, often getting correct results despite mathematicians wincing at the lack of rigor. It's like watching someone solve a Rubik's cube by peeling off the stickers—horrifying but somehow it works!
