Time-Traveling Twitter: When Astronomers Pay Respects
The meme imagines if Twitter existed in 1601, with Rudolf II announcing Tycho Brahe's death while Galileo, Christian IV, and Johannes Kepler all respond with just "ma" - the 17th century version of "F" to pay respects. The joke brilliantly contrasts how Newton's laws of motion (published 86 years later) would formally explain the inertia these astronomers were already observing, while they were busy typing single-syllable responses to celebrity deaths. Historical science Twitter would've been just as distractible as we are today!

How To Defeat A Physicist With Three Numbers
Nothing triggers a physicist faster than mathematical blasphemy. Our hero complains about engineers contradicting physics, only to be utterly destroyed by "Pi = 3 = e" - an equation so mathematically criminal it should come with jail time. For context, Pi is approximately 3.14159..., while e is about 2.71828... To a physicist, saying these constants equal each other (and equal 3) is like telling a chef that ketchup and fine wine are identical substances. The response? "#harassment" - because sometimes there's no comeback for pure mathematical violence.

The Normalized Response
Twitter demands we "normalize obesity" while mathematicians quietly normalize vectors in the corner. The bottom part shows the actual mathematical normalization process - dividing a vector by its magnitude to get a unit vector (||OBESITY||). It's the perfect intersection of social media hot takes and cold hard math. Next up: Twitter tries to integrate social justice while calculus professors actually integrate functions.

The Expensive Algebra Problem
The value of X = 29% of original investment, if my calculations are correct! This is what happens when you solve for X in real life instead of math class. In algebra, X is just an unknown variable. In business, X is apparently "how to turn $44 billion into $13 billion with this one weird trick." Economists hate him! Perhaps the most expensive letter change in history - from a bird to a letter that literally marks the spot where money goes to die.

The Defense Contractor Recruitment Paradox
The classic Twitter bait-and-switch, but with geopolitical defense contractor flavor! This meme plays on how Lockheed Martin posts get bombarded by accounts claiming to be Russian bots warning people not to work for defense contractors. The joke splits a seemingly innocent "I'm sick" tweet with the punchline revealing it's actually recruitment propaganda disguised as anti-Russian sentiment. Like quantum superposition but for military-industrial complex job listings - you don't know if you're looking at a health update or F-35 recruitment until you observe the full tweet!

Who Would Vote Against This?
The greatest mathematical troll in history strikes again! Pierre de Fermat famously claimed to have a proof for his Last Theorem (that no three positive integers a, b, and c can satisfy a n + b n = c n for any integer n > 2), but wrote in his notes that the margin was too small to contain it. Mathematicians spent 358 YEARS trying to solve it until Andrew Wiles finally did in 1994! And here's "Fermat" polling Twitter about whether to reveal his proof with 17 MILLION votes! The kicker? Even with a 57.5% "yes" vote, that proof is STILL missing! Mathematicians everywhere are having simultaneous heart attacks at this fictional scenario. The margin is STILL too small, apparently! 📝➕➖✖️

James Webb Telescope Blocks NASA Sun And Moon Accounts
The ultimate astronomical power move. Webb's sunshield isn't just blocking infrared radiation—it's blocking entire celestial bodies on Twitter. This is what happens when your $10 billion telescope needs to operate at -233°C and can't have the Sun, Moon, or Earth photobombing its deep space observations. Imagine being so sensitive to heat that you have to block the cosmic equivalent of your coworkers on social media. "Sorry, nothing personal, you're just literally too hot for me to function."
