The Fourth State Crisis

The Fourth State Crisis
Remember that devastating moment when you learned there aren't just 3 states of matter? That shocked chinchilla perfectly captures the existential crisis of discovering plasma, Bose-Einstein condensate, and other exotic states! Elementary school teachers conveniently omitted these just to keep things simple, and now you're questioning your entire scientific foundation. The betrayal! Next you'll find out that Pluto's planetary status was also a complicated mess. The physics rabbit hole goes deeper than we were led to believe...

Oganesson Could Be A Noble... Solid?

Oganesson Could Be A Noble... Solid?
Chemistry's ultimate rebel! Element 118 (Oganesson) is breaking all the noble gas rules. While every other noble gas is happily floating around as a gas at room temperature, theoretical models suggest Oganesson might be like "nah, I'm gonna be solid." It's the periodic table equivalent of showing up to a black tie event in sweatpants. The confused face perfectly captures how chemists feel about this element destroying their neat little categorization system. Identity crisis in Group 18!

Oganesson Could Be A Noble... Solid?

Oganesson Could Be A Noble... Solid?
The chemistry world's existential crisis in one image! Oganesson (element 118) breaks all the rules we learned in school. Noble gases are supposed to be these chill, non-reactive elements hanging out in gaseous form, but Oganesson is the rebel showing up to the periodic table party as a predicted solid. It's like finding out your most reliable friend has a secret life as a rock star. The confused face perfectly captures how chemists feel when their fundamental classification system gets thrown into chaos. Breaking news: even the periodic table has identity issues!

The Great Matter State Debate

The Great Matter State Debate
The ultimate physics throwdown! One character dismisses sand from the fluid club, while plasma gets outraged at the double standard. Then plasma drops the mic with "I flow to take the shape of my container, how about you read a fucking book" - and honestly, that's the scientific equivalent of a third-degree burn! 🔥 What makes this hilarious is that plasma (ionized gas with free electrons) is indeed the fourth state of matter and behaves like a fluid. Meanwhile, sand is technically a granular material that can flow but doesn't meet all fluid criteria - though it does display some wild non-Newtonian properties under the right conditions!

The Fourth State Of Enlightenment

The Fourth State Of Enlightenment
That moment when you're the only one who remembers plasma exists! While teachers drone on about solids, liquids, and gases, you're sitting there with the forbidden knowledge that would shatter their entire lesson plan. Your glasses literally glow with superior intellect as you prepare to drop this fourth-state-of-matter bomb on the class. Watch as the teacher either calls you a nerd or frantically changes the subject to avoid admitting they forgot about the state that makes up 99% of the visible universe. Power move.

Where Are The Plasma Dudes Now 😭

Where Are The Plasma Dudes Now 😭
The fourth state of matter just entered the chat! 🔥 While regular humans are stuck with the boring solid-liquid-gas trifecta coming out of their bodies, the plasma-excreting elite are clearly operating on another level of physics! Plasma—that super-heated, electrically charged state of matter found in lightning, stars, and apparently some very special digestive systems—would make bathroom trips both terrifying and scientifically groundbreaking. Next time someone brags about their diet, just casually mention you're ionizing your waste to 5,000°C. That'll shut 'em up!

Cats: The Fourth State Of Matter

Cats: The Fourth State Of Matter
Behold! The revolutionary discovery in states of matter - cats ! While normal solids maintain their shape, these fluffy anomalies defy the laws of physics by perfectly conforming to any container they encounter. Goldfish bowl? Cat-shaped water. Sink? Cat puddle. Tiny box? Somehow the entire cat fits! Scientists are still baffled by this quantum-defying property that allows cats to simultaneously be solid, liquid, and judging you. Next week's lecture: Why cats also violate conservation of energy by sleeping 20 hours yet still zooming at 3 AM!

The iPhone's State Of Matter Evolution

The iPhone's State Of Matter Evolution
Finally, a smartphone that doubles as a physics textbook. The iPhone 17 Pro apparently contains all three classical states of matter - solid (the chassis), liquid (cooling system), and gas (whatever's leaking from the battery). By iPhone 19, we'll skip right past plasma to Bose-Einstein condensate, where all your apps quantum tunnel into a single superposition state. Great for multitasking, terrible for knowing which app you're actually using. Can't wait for the quantum entanglement feature where your phone instantly dies when your friend's battery hits 1%.

Where Are The Plasma Dudes Now 😭

Where Are The Plasma Dudes Now 😭
Ever notice how physics textbooks love to remind us there are four states of matter, but your gastroenterologist only ever asks about three? The forgotten plasma excreters are clearly the superior beings among us, casually ionizing their digestive output while the rest of humanity is stuck with pedestrian solids, liquids, and gases. Next time someone brags about their fiber intake, just smile knowing you're operating at 10,000 degrees Kelvin where they'll never reach. The evolutionary advantage we never knew we needed.

From Sugar Cubes To Molecular Nightmares

From Sugar Cubes To Molecular Nightmares
Chemistry education really hits different over time. One minute you're learning that sugar is solid, water is liquid, and steam is gas (revolutionary stuff!). Next thing you know, you're staring at cobalamin's molecular structure like it's some kind of eldritch horror summoning ritual. The facial expressions capture that journey perfectly—from "this is fun and easy!" to "what unholy molecular nightmare is this and why does it contain cobalt?!" The jump from states of matter to vitamin B12's structure is basically the chemical equivalent of going from "The Cat in the Hat" to "War and Peace" written in hieroglyphics.

Cats: The Purr-fect Liquid

Cats: The Purr-fect Liquid
The feline physics phenomenon strikes again! 🐱 This furball perfectly demonstrates the principle that cats somehow defy the laws of solid matter and flow into ANY container they find. Glass bowl? Cat liquid. Tiny box? Cat puddle. Bathroom sink? Cat pool party! The scientific principle being referenced is actually real - liquids conform to their containers while maintaining volume. But the hilarious part is how cats genuinely seem to follow this rule despite being, you know, mammals with bones and stuff. Their incredible flexibility lets them squeeze, pour, and mold themselves into spaces that seem physically impossible!

Are You Gonna Let Supercritical CO₂ Talk To You Like That?

Are You Gonna Let Supercritical CO₂ Talk To You Like That?
Carbon dioxide just went super critical of your fashion choices! 💅 When CO₂ reaches 350 Kelvin and 1,000 bars of pressure, it transforms into this sassy state that's neither liquid nor gas - it's basically the molecular equivalent of that brutally honest friend who has NO filter. The joke here is brilliant because supercritical CO₂ is actually used in dry cleaning and textile processing - so it literally has opinions about your clothes! It's judging your fashion while simultaneously being used to clean it. The audacity!
