Why Can't They All Just Be Friends?

Why Can't They All Just Be Friends?
The ultimate academic cold war captured in one meme! Physicists looking down with pity at chemists while chemists couldn't care less about physicists' existence. This perfectly encapsulates the hilarious disciplinary rivalry where physicists often view chemistry as "just applied physics" while chemists are busy creating actual compounds and materials without needing to acknowledge their theoretical cousins. The scientific equivalent of that one-sided high school rivalry where one person thinks they're in competition and the other doesn't even remember their name. Next frame would probably show biologists getting ignored by both!

The Physics Department Hierarchy

The Physics Department Hierarchy
The eternal physics department hierarchy in one brutal takedown! Experimental physicists build intricate contraptions to measure quantum wobbles and cosmic jiggles, while theoretical physicists scribble equations and mumble about 11-dimensional manifolds. The experimentalists are basically just high-precision engineers creating reality-checking machines for the theorists who'd otherwise float away into mathematical abstraction. It's the perfect scientific symbiosis - one group makes fancy toys, the other group makes fancy thoughts, and together they advance human knowledge while passive-aggressively competing for department funding.
