Roses Are Red, Violets Are Doppler-Shifted
This meme is a brilliant play on the classic poem format but with a relativistic twist! It's referencing the Doppler effect in physics where wavelengths of light shift toward the blue end of the spectrum when objects move toward you, and toward the red end when they move away. So those roses would actually change color depending on how fast they're zooming past you! Einstein would be proud of this shower thought - turning romantic poetry into a physics lesson. The fact that it got 7.4k upvotes proves that nerds truly rule the internet.

Absolutely Hilarious Math Pun
The mathematical wordplay here is absolutely brilliant! When someone says their favorite number is -9, but their absolute favorite is 9, they're cleverly referencing the absolute value function in mathematics. In math, the absolute value of a number is its distance from zero on the number line, regardless of direction. So |−9| = 9. The commenter turned a shower thought about negative numbers into a perfect mathematical pun that would make even the sternest calculus professor crack a smile.
