Tesla Memes

That's Nikola Tesla casually reading a book while creating artificial lightning with his Tesla coil, and honestly, same energy as grading papers while my students have mental breakdowns during finals. The best part? Tesla was probably thinking "just another Tuesday" while revolutionizing electrical engineering. Meanwhile, modern scientists need three grant approvals and a safety committee review to change a light bulb. The raw chaotic genius of sitting calmly amid massive electrical discharges perfectly captures what happens when brilliance meets zero institutional oversight. Those were the days—when "safety protocol" meant "try not to die too spectacularly."

Evolution of physics in one gut-punch! The top row shows the glorious mad scientist days with Tesla's lightning experiments, Bohr's atomic models, and Archimedes yelling "DON'T DISTURB MY CIRCLES!" while being murdered (priorities, people!). Meanwhile, modern physicists are stuck in computational purgatory—racing tortoises for tenure, wrestling with unsolvable halting problems, and feeding papers into the academic machine just to get more papers out. Gone are the days of electrocuting yourself for science... now we electrocute our keyboards instead! The universe went from "I'll figure you out with this lightning coil" to "please let this code compile before my funding runs out."

The ultimate electrical engineering showdown! This meme brilliantly plays on the "don't say you love the anime if you haven't read the manga" gatekeeping trope, but with a scientific twist. Modern Tesla (the company and its CEO) is the "anime" - the flashy, mainstream version everyone knows. Meanwhile, Nikola Tesla himself - the eccentric genius with his lightning coils and revolutionary AC power systems - is the original "manga" that true science nerds appreciate. The historical Tesla was basically creating lightning in his lab while modern Tesla is making electric cars. Both are electrifying in their own way, but only one was feeding pigeons and claiming to receive signals from Mars!

Ever wondered where your favorite physicist falls on the moral compass? This D&D-style alignment chart is basically the physics department's unofficial yearbook. Euler as Lawful Good makes sense—the man gave us more formulas than a textbook index. Meanwhile, Tesla sits at Chaotic Good because he wanted to give everyone free electricity (and talked to pigeons). Then there's Newton at Lawful Evil—brilliant but would absolutely destroy your career if you crossed him. And Schrödinger? Chaotic Evil until observed, then possibly just misunderstood. The best part? This is exactly how physicists procrastinate instead of finishing that grant proposal due tomorrow.

Finally! A way to measure brain power in actual electricity units! 🧠⚡ The search for "level 2 charging kWh per hour" paired with that glowing brain is basically what happens when your neurons are firing at maximum capacity. Next time someone asks how much brainpower you're using on a problem, just tell them you're operating at 7.2 kWh per hour. That's right—your thoughts are now quantifiable in the same units as your Tesla!
