Scientific frustration Memes

The eternal scientific civil war rages on! Scientists who use the logical, internationally standardized SI units are depicted as violently opposed to the chaotic imperial system still clinging to existence in exactly *checks notes* three whole countries worldwide. Nothing triggers a mild-mannered physicist faster than having to convert feet to meters or pounds to kilograms. The metric system: where water freezes at 0°C and boils at 100°C because we're not savages who picked random numbers out of a hat. Meanwhile, imperial defenders are still measuring things in "football fields" and "washing machines" like it's perfectly normal.

The ultimate scientific shitpost from a frustrated physicist! This satirical takedown of cosmology research is basically what happens when you've stared at too many simulation results without sleep. The meme mocks how cosmologists name eras, simulate massive structures with questionable real-world applications, and use complex mathematical notation (that Γ α,lm and η equation is pure gibberish designed to look intimidating). The bottom panels showing actual cosmological visualizations with question marks perfectly capture that moment in every physics presentation when the presenter says "as you can clearly see" and everyone just nods politely while understanding absolutely nothing. The "Hello I would like apples please" with Earth as the 'o' is just *chef's kiss* absurdist humor that perfectly captures academic burnout.

That moment when your experimental results violate the laws of physics and you question your entire career. Three red triangles and one blue circle shouldn't be able to support that stick figure, yet there it stands—defying gravity, common sense, and your sanity. This is the scientific equivalent of finding out your calculator's been running on spite instead of batteries. After 30 years in research, nothing breaks you quite like unexplainable data that makes you whisper "what fresh hell is this?" to an empty lab at 3 AM.
