Styrene Memes

Pooh Bear is clearly a sophisticated organic chemist! He's turning his nose up at "ethenylbenzene" (the formal IUPAC name) in favor of the more elegant "styrene" (the common name). It's the chemistry equivalent of choosing a fine wine over boxed juice. The tuxedo really sells it—nothing says "I memorized the entire CRC Handbook" like formal wear while discussing aromatic compounds. Next he'll be insisting we call water "dihydrogen monoxide" at dinner parties.
