The Placebo Plot Twist

Someone clearly misunderstood game theory! This meme shows John Nash (from A Beautiful Mind ) alongside a hilariously misapplied "payoff matrix" that tries to justify cheating. The irony? Real Nash Equilibrium is about finding stable strategies where no player benefits from changing only their own strategy - not rationalizing infidelity! In this matrix, the only person who always "wins" is the cheating husband (getting either "harem" or "open relationship"). Methinks someone failed both Game Theory 101 AND Marriage 101! 🧮💔

In a brilliant twist on superhero origin stories, this comic reveals humanity's true superpower: existential dread! While other species are busy surviving and thriving, humans uniquely evolved the ability to feel profound sadness about concepts that don't physically exist. We're the only creatures who lose sleep contemplating the inevitable heat death of the universe or whether our Netflix watchlist has become too judgmental. Evolution really outdid itself giving us thumbs AND the capacity to spiral into philosophical despair about impermanence while staring at the ceiling at 2AM. Nature's cruelest joke might be that we're smart enough to understand the universe but not smart enough to be happy about it.

Nothing says "I'm chemically dependent on happiness" quite like permanently etching serotonin's molecular structure into your skin! That bright magenta formula is basically saying "I love my happy chemicals so much I'm making them part of my identity." The little "<3" at the end is the chef's kiss - because nothing screams "science nerd with feelings" like using the mathematical less-than symbol to complete a heart emoji. For the uninitiated, serotonin is that glorious neurotransmitter responsible for regulating mood, happiness, and well-being. Ironically, the people most likely to get this tattoo are probably the ones whose brains are stingiest with the actual molecule. Talk about wearing your neurochemistry on your sleeve!

The classic dad joke meets binary logic! This conversation perfectly captures the beautiful collision between sexual identity and a father's literal interpretation of the prefix "bi." While the person patiently explains their bisexuality, Dad's brain executes a flawless Boolean logic operation - if attraction = (male OR female) AND partner = null, then clearly status = "standbi" 😂 It's like watching a human programming error in real-time, where Dad's mental compiler is technically correct but missing some important social libraries!

Ever wonder what happens when you mix cutting-edge 70s science with psychedelics? You get researchers dosing dolphins with LSD and then getting frustrated when the cetaceans don't suddenly start reciting Shakespeare! 🐬 This actually happened! The infamous John Lilly experiments involved giving dolphins psychedelic drugs in hopes of "enhancing communication." Meanwhile, the dolphins were probably just vibing in a sea of colors thinking "these bipedal lab coat weirdos need to chill." Turns out, you can't drug your way to Dr. Doolittle powers. Who knew?! The 70s were wild, folks. Science was basically "what if we just... try this crazy thing?" *lab explosion sounds*

Behold the Cunningham's Law hack in its natural habitat! Instead of begging for programming help (which gets ignored faster than my office hours), this genius posts deliberately wrong answers using alt accounts. The internet's compulsion to correct others kicks in with the fury of a thousand suns. Pure psychological manipulation at its finest - exploiting the fact that humans would rather die than let incorrect information exist online. Next semester I'm teaching "Advanced Reddit Psychology 401: Weaponizing Pedantry for Personal Gain."
