The perfect fashion-physics pun doesn't exi— wait. Those high-water pants perfectly embody the luminiferous aether theory - something that doesn't actually exist but physicists clung to for decades! Just like these pants that don't quite reach the shoes, the aether was supposed to be the invisible medium through which light waves propagated across space. Then Michelson and Morley's experiment came along in 1887 and *poof* - disproved its existence faster than a freshman physics student can say "Einstein was right." Professors who rock this particular trouser length are definitely stuck in the 19th century, both in physics theories AND fashion sense!
