Naming errors Memes

The eternal struggle of scientists being overshadowed by their creations. Frankenstein was the doctor, not the monster. And Schrödinger? His "monster" isn't a cat in a box—it's the Schrödinger equation, that terrifying wave function that haunts physics students' nightmares. The equation describes quantum states that exist in superpositions until observed, much like how this meme exists in a superposition of being both scientifically accurate and a painful reminder of how pop culture butchers scientific concepts. At least the equation doesn't need to be fed or have its litter box changed.
