Millennials Memes

This meme is playing with two different meanings of "collapse" - one from quantum physics and one from economics! The Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics says a wavefunction "collapses" when observed. Meanwhile, millennials are begging the housing market to collapse so they can finally afford a home. The stick figure is basically every 30-something physicist with student loans looking at those ever-rising property values and thinking "I'd have better luck with Schrödinger's mortgage."
