Stem Memes

This Venn diagram is basically a dating profile for STEM fields. Physicists are out here assuming penguins are perfect cylinders because apparently reality is just too messy. Engineers decided π=3 because who needs those pesky decimals anyway? And mathematicians are defining 'e' with limits that make normal people's brains melt. The overlap zones are pure gold - physicists and engineers bonding over "sin x = x" (which is only true for tiny angles, but why let accuracy get in the way of a good approximation?). Meanwhile, everyone's using random units and gravity is just "about 10" because who has time for 9.8? And programmers? Off in their own little world with "x = x + 1" which makes mathematicians scream internally. The chemists got a tiny circle because they're too busy making things explode to participate in these shenanigans. Notice how "single" sits right in the middle of physicists, engineers, and mathematicians. Coincidence? I think not.

Procrastinating math students everywhere just felt a disturbance in the force. That's not just any washing machine—it's displaying a step function graph while being interrogated about its life choices! The perfect metaphor for every STEM student who's ever stared at a piecewise function and thought, "I'd rather be doing laundry." Bonus points for the washing machine looking equally confused about why it's suddenly teaching calculus instead of removing stains. Clearly, even household appliances are being recruited to remind you about those finals you're avoiding.

The sacred constant violated! To math purists, using π as a variable is like putting pineapple on pizza—a mathematical sacrilege that makes students hyperventilate. Statisticians casually toss around π as if it's not the backbone of circular existence, while mathematicians clutch their textbooks in horror. Next thing you know, they'll be setting e=2 and claiming the Pythagorean theorem is "just a suggestion."

The mathematical enthusiasm paradox in its natural habitat! Nothing kills your math buzz faster than the collective groan of "I hate math" from literally everyone you know. It's like excitedly discovering a beautiful equation only to have someone respond, "Cool story, nerd." The social calculus is clear: loving math = instant social isolation. Yet we persist, secretly scribbling derivatives while pretending to text at parties.

The progression from mild interest to complete mind-explosion is exactly what happens when mathematicians enter the Vatican. "New pope? Whatever. American pope? Slightly more intriguing. But a pope with a math degree ?!" That's like finding out your calculator has been secretly calculating the odds of your romantic success this whole time. The Catholic Church hasn't seen this much excitement since they finally admitted the Earth revolves around the Sun. Just imagine the papal encyclicals filled with proofs and theorems! Sunday mass would become a three-hour lecture on non-Euclidean geometry, and confession would require showing your work.
