The Friendzone For Engineers!

Just a little physics humor for your day. The meme is playing with Einstein's famous equation E=mc² where mass (m) multiplied by the speed of light squared (c²) equals energy (E). So technically, you're matter until you multiply yourself by the speed of light squared, then you're energy. Physics jokes - they're relatively funny, but only when you're in the right frame of reference.

The quantum mechanics walk of shame! In the top panel, we see a particle happily strolling through a double-slit experiment setup. In the bottom panel, the particle has mysteriously disappeared because someone decided to observe it. Classic wave-particle duality in action! The particle was like "I'm just gonna casually exist in multiple states simultaneously" until a nosy scientist ruined its quantum superposition party. Schrödinger's walk home, if you will.

Physics students rejecting CBD (cannabidiol) but swooning over FBD (free body diagrams). The natural state of a physics student is to ignore recreational substances and instead experience euphoria when calculating forces on a rigid body. Nothing quite like the high of decomposing vectors and solving for equilibrium conditions. Some of us still have nightmares about forgetting to include friction in our calculations.

The greatest physicist who ever rocked a bongo drum just dropped the mic on intellectual honesty! Feynman famously admitted that despite being a Nobel Prize-winning physicist, even he couldn't fully explain how magnets work at the fundamental level. It's the perfect scientific humility bomb - sometimes the most brilliant move in science is admitting what you don't know. Meanwhile, your Facebook uncle has VERY strong opinions about quantum vaccines and moon landing hoaxes after watching half a YouTube video.

The eternal battle between mass and weight claims another victim! This meme brutally roasts people who think 1kg of steel weighs more than 1kg of feathers. Spoiler alert: they're BOTH 1kg! 🤦‍♂️ The bell curve shows the distribution of intelligence, with the confused souls on both ends insisting steel weighs more (despite identical mass), while the enlightened middle understands basic physics. The title refers to "point masses" (idealized objects with mass but no volume) and pokes fun at flat-earthers who believe gravity is just acceleration. Remember kids, mass is an intrinsic property - 1kg is 1kg whether it's neutron stars or cotton candy! Though I still want to see someone try to carry both and tell me which "feels" heavier... *mad scientist cackle*

Electrons having an existential crisis! The top panels show the classic double-slit experiment where particles behave like waves, creating that beautiful interference pattern when nobody's looking. But the bottom panels? That's what happens when you try to observe which slit the electron goes through - BAM! The wave function collapses into boring particle behavior! It's like catching your quantum friends doing something wild at a party, but as soon as you pull out your camera, they suddenly pretend to be perfectly respectable particles. The monkey's face says it all - "Did... did reality just change because I looked at it?!" Welcome to quantum mechanics, where particles are basically teenagers who act differently when adults are watching! 😱
