Photon With An Attitude: Zero Mass, Maximum Sass

Photon With An Attitude: Zero Mass, Maximum Sass
That photon is literally traveling at the speed of light with zero chill and zero mass. Imagine being so lightweight yet still managing to be the foundation of all electromagnetic radiation. Next time your friend acts important despite contributing nothing, just point at this meme. In physics, we call that "existing at the quantum level but flexing like you're macroscopic." Classic massless particle syndrome.

Physicists: "We need billion-dollar detectors to find these elusive neutrinos." Neutrinos: *literally pass through entire planets without interacting* That kitten sitting on a scale reading zero is the perfect metaphor for neutrino detection. These subatomic ghosts are so non-interactive they'll zip through a light-year of lead without stopping. Meanwhile, we're spending decades building massive underground tanks filled with cleaning fluid just to catch a handful. Classic particle physics relationship status: "It's complicated."

Breaking The Laws Of Physics, One Wish At A Time

Breaking The Laws Of Physics, One Wish At A Time
Imagine asking a magical being to break one of the most fundamental laws of physics! Photons are massless particles that travel at the speed of light - giving them mass would literally break the universe. It's like asking someone to make a square circle or divide by zero. Even magical genies have their limits when it comes to violating the Standard Model. That wide-eyed stare perfectly captures the "Did this human really just ask me to rewrite quantum electrodynamics?" moment. Next time, maybe wish for something more reasonable... like cold fusion in your kitchen.
