CERN physicists watching Thanos snap people into dust: "Pathetic." Real particle accelerators can smash matter into subatomic particles way smaller than atoms. Amateur villain work, really. If you're going to disintegrate half the universe, at least do it with some scientific precision. The Large Hadron Collider operates at energies of 13 TeV—that's approximately 7 trillion electron volts more impressive than a purple guy with fancy jewelry.

The Fields Medal winner making a pun about mathematical transformations while literally showing his physical transformation! Terence Tao is playing with the dual meaning of "transform" - in math, transformations change one function or space into another, while he's visibly transformed from his younger self. It's the ultimate mathematician dad joke that only works when you're brilliant enough to win math's highest honor. The irony is that while math doesn't actually age you, those late nights solving impossible problems might!

The physics fandom is having a moment of self-reflection. Owning every Hawking, Kaku, and Sagan book doesn't automatically grant you immunity from the "less intelligent" category if you're treating these physicists like rock stars instead of actually understanding their work. That uncomfortable silence you hear? That's thousands of science enthusiasts quietly checking their bookshelves and questioning if they bought those quantum physics books for the right reasons. Nothing says "I'm intellectually superior" quite like using famous physicists as personality traits while completely missing the irony.

Behold! The ultimate scientific method gone hilariously wrong! While the physicist and biologist were busy dissolving themselves in the name of research, our clever chemist stayed dry and simply recorded the data: "Physicists and biologists are soluble in ocean water." Classic chemist move—letting others do the dangerous experimental work while taking notes from a safe distance! Remember kids, proper experimental design includes NOT becoming part of your solution. The chemist deserves a Nobel Prize for survival skills!

Just another day in the lab watching internet commenters solve problems that have stumped researchers for decades. The number of Nobel Prizes awarded to random people in comment sections remains stubbornly at zero. Shocking, I know. Peer review: that tedious process where actual experts verify your work instead of just hitting "post" after a 30-second Google search. Revolutionary discoveries typically require more than caps lock and a YouTube degree.

Hennig Brandt, the original "I'll try anything once" scientist. In 1669, this German alchemist was desperately searching for the philosopher's stone when he decided that urine might hold the secret to gold. After collecting and boiling down 1,200 gallons of human waste (yes, that's approximately 5,500 liters of pee), he accidentally created phosphorus instead. The glowing white substance must have seemed like magic after weeks of inhaling urine vapors. Scientific breakthroughs: sometimes they're brilliant insights, sometimes they're just what happens when you're too stubborn to give up on a terrible idea.
