Phil plait Memes

Nothing says "I love science education" like traumatizing a curious child with graduate-level physics! Phil Plait's advice is peak scientist humor - why give a simple "the sky scatters blue light more" when you can drop Rayleigh scattering and retinal physiology on a 5-year-old? This is exactly how we create the next generation of therapy patients with science anxiety. Bonus points for maintaining unblinking eye contact while delivering this explanation. That kid will either become the next Feynman or develop a lifelong fear of looking upward.
