Whatever Floats Your Buoyancy

That chicken is the perfect sphere we've only theorized about in physics textbooks! The formula V=(4/3)Πr³ calculates the volume of a sphere, and this rotund hen is practically demonstrating it in the flesh. Physics professors should replace their boring ball diagrams with this magnificent specimen. Nature has finally achieved what engineers could only dream of - the perfectly spherical chicken. Forget Euclidean geometry, we're now in the era of Poultry Mathematics!

Someone's been watching too many flat-Earth documentaries while studying cosmology! The Cosmic Microwave Background isn't some cosmic ocean you can sail to—it's literally the oldest light in the universe, radiation left over from about 380,000 years after the Big Bang. It's EVERYWHERE, surrounding us in all directions like a cosmic baby photo. Trying to sail to the "edge" of the CMB is like trying to sail to the edge of time itself! Next they'll be asking if we can take selfies with the Big Bang! 🤪

The scientific community's standards for "new discoveries" are apparently... flexible. 🧪 Physics: Got a blurry video of your cat toy vibrating? Congratulations, you've discovered the "quantum fuzzball particle" that will revolutionize string theory! Chemistry: Drew some random circles and lines? That's definitely a groundbreaking molecule that will either cure cancer or make really good shampoo. Nobody knows! Biology: Found a weird noodle in your backyard? Time to name it Vermis exgirlfriendus and submit to Nature! Mathematics: Who needs rigorous proof when you have a million kids with TikTok accounts demanding "squillion" be recognized? Democracy wins over mathematical convention!

When your exam is tomorrow but you haven't started studying yet, so you try to absorb knowledge through osmosis! 😂 Those formulas aren't going to memorize themselves, but hey, maybe writing them on your legs will help you run the calculations faster! Students have been trying to find creative study hacks since the dawn of education, but I'm pretty sure this method isn't endorsed by any physics professor. Though you've got to admire the dedication - that's some serious mathematical leg work!

The ultimate physics pickup line just dropped! This meme perfectly captures that moment when two nerds realize they speak the same language. At first glance, they're both into "QED" - but the reveal shows they're actually vibing on a deeper level. He's into Quantum ElectroDynamics (the theory describing how light and matter interact), while she's thinking in Latin: Quod Erat Demonstrandum ("which was to be demonstrated" - how mathematicians mic-drop after proving theorems). It's basically the STEM version of finishing each other's sentences! Nothing says "intellectual chemistry" like discovering your abbreviations mean completely different nerdy things but somehow still work perfectly together.

Physicists in the early nuclear age really said "safety equipment? Never heard of her!" Those hemispheres are literal plutonium cores used in nuclear weapons development, and scientists would handle them with basically zero protection. The "demon core" famously killed two physicists when they accidentally initiated brief criticality events by dropping a neutron reflector or using a screwdriver to prop one up. Just casually playing with potential nuclear chain reactions like they're appetizers at a fancy restaurant. "Yes, I'll have another serving of lethal radiation, please!"
