I Know It's A Fowl Joke

Behold the pinnacle of scientific achievement: spending billions on equipment, thousands of hours of research, and decades of education just to create an element that exists for 0.0000000000000000000002173 seconds! These scientists are cheering like they just won the Super Bowl, when in reality they've basically photographed a subatomic ghost. The sheer excitement over something that disappears faster than free food in a university break room is the perfect representation of modern science. "Quick, take a picture before it's gone! No wait, it's already gone. But trust us, it was there!"

Engineers are a different breed entirely. While fantasy heroes dream of slaying dragons, engineers who suddenly gain magical powers immediately think, "How can I violate the fundamental laws of physics with this?" The square-cube law is that pesky little principle limiting how big structures can get before collapsing under their own weight. But with levitation? Those constraints go right out the window. Suddenly that 300-foot-tall mecha with impossibly thin legs doesn't seem so impractical anymore. Give an engineer a superpower and they won't save the world—they'll redesign it with "weird shit" that would make Newton roll in his grave.

Ultimate power move: studying fluid mechanics while literally submerged in water! Talk about immersive learning! The person is taking "to defeat your enemy you must become your enemy" to a whole new level by physically surrounding themselves with the very fluid dynamics they're trying to master. Next-level dedication that would make Bernoulli and Reynolds proud. Honestly, this is just the logical conclusion of hands-on education—if you want to understand pressure gradients and laminar flow, might as well experience them firsthand with every cell in your body!

The duality of humanity when faced with potential extinction! While normal folks panic about a "droplet-shaped object" hurtling toward Earth, physics enthusiasts are gleefully calculating orbital mechanics. The three-body problem is notoriously unsolvable in closed form—it's literally chaos theory in action! The title brilliantly references "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" where dolphins (the second most intelligent species on Earth) leave before our planet's destruction with that exact farewell. Calculating celestial trajectories vs. running for your life? The physics nerds choose math every time. They're not scared—they're intellectually stimulated .

When rocket scientists face the Tsiolkovsky rocket equation (that exponential nightmare showing how much fuel you need grows exponentially with desired velocity), they don't just give up - they stack rockets like cosmic Legos! The meme brilliantly trolls aerospace engineering with the "just put a rocket on a bigger rocket" solution. It's basically the scientific equivalent of saying "if your car runs out of gas halfway to your destination, just put your car on top of another car with a full tank." And yet... multi-stage rockets are literally how we solved this problem. Sometimes the dumbest-sounding solution is actually genius. NASA engineers: secretly just trolls with physics degrees.

Einstein established spacetime with a measly 4 dimensions, and string theorists are just sitting there like, "Pathetic." While Einstein revolutionized physics with general relativity's 3 spatial dimensions plus time, string theorists casually toss in 7 extra dimensions before breakfast. They're basically dimensional hoarders who can't stop at a reasonable number. Next faculty meeting, they'll probably announce they found dimension #12 hiding behind the coffee machine.
