Resistance Is Futile, But Watt Is The Unit?

Resistance Is Futile, But Watt Is The Unit?
The perfect physics pun doesn't exi-- That moment when your brain short-circuits during an exam and the teacher keeps asking for the unit of resistance. The answer is "ohm" but the teacher keeps hearing "what?" creating an Abbott and Costello-level misunderstanding. Meanwhile, the unit of power (watt) becomes the punchline in this electrifying wordplay. The frustration is so real you can practically feel the current of tension rising exponentially with each repetition!

The Watt Just Happened?

The Watt Just Happened?
Scientists didn't just discover electricity—they had to figure out how to measure it too! Enter the watt, named after James Watt, the Scottish engineer who never actually worked with electricity (plot twist!). The meme captures that moment in scientific history when someone inevitably asked "but how do we measure this thing?" and science responded with what can only be described as peak dad-joke energy. It's basically the 18th century version of naming a unit after yourself before anyone else could call dibs.

You're One Joule Per Second Harry

You're One Joule Per Second Harry
When physics meets wizardry, hilarity ensues! Hagrid's telling Harry he's "one joule per second," which is literally the definition of a watt. Harry's confused response of "I'm a watt?" is the perfect punchline to this nerdy power play. It's the ultimate physics dad joke smuggled into the wizarding world. Somewhere, a physics teacher is using this to explain SI units while trying desperately to be cool.
