Philosophy of science Memes

The face you make when someone starts treating science as "what exists" rather than "how we know what exists." Nothing triggers a philosophy of science researcher quite like watching someone confuse ontology (the study of what exists) with epistemology (how we gain knowledge). That cat's existential crisis is exactly how I look during interdepartmental meetings when someone says "science proves reality."

The kitten's journey through scientific gatekeeping is peak academic humor. It's all fun and games dismissing political science, social science, and computer science with a casual "hehe" until someone brings up Karl Popper's falsifiability criterion to attack string theory. Suddenly it's "not hehe" when the same logic is applied to theoretical physics! Nothing triggers a physics enthusiast faster than suggesting their beloved string theory might be in the same boat as sociology. The methodological turf war continues, while this kitten inadvertently exposes the arbitrary hierarchies we create within scientific disciplines.
