Theoretical physicists have been pranking humanity for decades! The meme brilliantly satirizes how physics has evolved into this bizarre realm where particles aren't supposed to be observed (hello, quantum mechanics!), and equations have gone from "hmm, interesting" to "what in the multiverse is THAT?!"
That Schrödinger equation thrown casually into a conversation about throwing a ball? Pure gold! It's like saying "Nice haircut, Jim! By the way, here's the complete works of Shakespeare in original Klingon."
The bottom images with their orbital diagrams and wave functions are basically physicists saying "Trust us, this explains everything!" while the rest of us stare blankly at what looks like abstract art created by a caffeinated octopus.
Next time a physicist tries to explain reality, just remember they're the same people who invented "experimental conjectures" as a fancy way of saying "wild guesses."
