Why Are Physicists So Bad At Naming Their Stuff?

Behold, the perfect rebuttal to "memes aren't educational" - a comic literally teaching magnetic polarity! Those red and blue bar magnets show how opposites attract (S and N poles) while same poles repel. The prisoners are literally demonstrating one of physics' fundamental principles while plotting their escape. Talk about learning on the run! Next time someone claims memes are just mindless entertainment, just remember: even convicts in orange jumpsuits understand that unlike poles attract. Science education is happening whether your teacher approves or not!

Electrons are the ultimate introverts of the quantum world! Just minding their business, flowing along as waves through space—until a nosy human decides to observe them. Then BAM! They collapse into particles like "Nope, not doing the wave thing today, thanks for ruining my quantum flow state." It's basically the subatomic version of canceling plans when someone asks what you're doing. The wave-particle duality is just electrons having social anxiety! 🤓⚛️

Funding agencies suddenly develop interest in theoretical physics once you slap "+AI" onto your equations. The scientific equivalent of sprinkling buzzwords onto your grant application like seasoning on a bland meal. Notice how the funder went from "boring" to "oh!" faster than a particle accelerator. Theoretical physicists have known this trick since the blockchain era - just add whatever technology is currently getting venture capital thrown at it. Next year we'll be solving the Eindinger equation with quantum blockchain NFT metaverse technology.

Who needs 17 pages of incomprehensible equations when you can just poke a pencil through a folded piece of paper? Theoretical physicists sweating over blackboards while the rest of us are out here making interdimensional travel with office supplies. Einstein is rolling in his grave right now — not from disappointment, but because he didn't think of this shortcut first. Next up: explaining black holes with a coffee cup and a donut.

The cosmic dating scene is BRUTAL! This meme brilliantly turns astrophysics into a hilarious dating hierarchy with the "Chad Black Hole" absolutely dominating the insecure "Virgin Star." Black holes are the ultimate cosmic badasses - they don't even TRY to have infinite density, they just do. Meanwhile, stars are out there desperately burning through their hydrogen, begging for attention like "Please orbit me, I give you light!" Poor things eventually shrink into white dwarfs after all that effort! The best part? Black holes literally eat stars for breakfast while time slows down around them. Talk about being the center of attention without even trying! No wonder stars explode when life gets hard - cosmic rejection is tough!

Scientists spend decades building precise models of our solar system, meticulously tracking planetary orbits and gravitational interactions. Then one day Neptune just... vanishes? The absolute chaos this would cause in the astronomical community is perfectly captured in that final panel! Imagine trying to explain how an entire ice giant just yeeted itself out of existence without violating conservation of momentum. The resulting scientific meltdown would make the Pluto demotion look like a minor footnote. No wonder they're hitting the bottle—their entire understanding of celestial mechanics just imploded!
