Believing In Observer-Causes-Collapse Be Like
Schrödinger's cat meets quantum physics humor at its finest! This meme brilliantly plays on the famous thought experiment where a cat in a box is both alive and dead until observed. But here's the twist - it references the "Wigner's Friend" paradox, which extends Schrödinger's cat by adding another observer. When you open the box (observe the cat), you collapse the quantum superposition. But poor Wigner's friend, who was apparently in their own superposition, dramatically "collapses" too! It's basically saying "you think the cat has it rough? What about the humans involved in these bizarre quantum thought experiments?" Quantum physicists will be cackling at this one while the rest of us wonder if we should check on our physicist friends more often...
