Roy kerr Memes

This meme is basically astrophysics academia in a nutshell! It shows the eternal struggle between theoretical physicists about black hole properties. Roy Kerr (the anime character on the left) is throwing down with "most physicists" over whether black holes actually have singularities. For those who don't spend their weekends reading astrophysics papers: Roy Kerr is famous for developing the mathematical solution for rotating black holes in 1963. While many physicists believe all black holes contain singularities (points where space-time becomes infinitely curved and physics breaks), Kerr is arguing that rotating black holes have "ring singularities" that are actually just mathematical placeholders. The frustration in "Read my paper, goddamnit!" perfectly captures that feeling when you've published groundbreaking work but your colleagues are still stuck in their old ways. The scientific equivalent of yelling into the void!
