The forgotten states of matter are having an existential crisis! While America flexes its 50 political states and some countries only acknowledge the basic trio (solid, liquid, gas), plasma is drowning in neglect despite making up 99% of visible matter in the universe. And poor Bose-Einstein condensate? That quantum state is literally chilling at near absolute zero, forgotten at the bottom of physics textbooks. Next time you list states of matter, remember these overlooked heroes—plasma's lighting up stars and Bose-Einstein is quantum-entangling at temperatures colder than your ex's heart.

Forget meeting your descendants—real scientists travel back in time to correct Benjamin Franklin on electricity basics! While amateurs waste time on family reunions, seasoned physicists know the true priority: fixing that pesky conventional current misconception before it plagues two centuries of students. Nothing says "I've made it in science" like mansplaining electron flow to one of history's greatest inventors. Franklin would probably just nod and say "Cool" while secretly planning to electrocute you with his next kite experiment.

The fourth state of matter just can't catch a break! While America proudly flaunts its 50 states, physics textbooks worldwide are still stuck in a three-party system. Poor plasma—making up 99.9% of the visible universe including stars, lightning, and those cool glowy balls at science museums—gets completely ghosted in basic science education. It's like inviting the three least interesting guests to your matter party while leaving out the one that literally powers the sun. Next time someone lists "solid, liquid, gas" as the states of matter, just remember they're committing a cosmic injustice against the most abundant state in the universe. #JusticeForPlasma

Electrical engineers have the most enlightened cult meetings! The resistor symbol (that zigzag thing) is literally preaching "Join the Resistance" to a congregation of devoted followers chanting "Ohmmmm..." which is both a meditation sound AND the unit of electrical resistance named after Georg Ohm. It's a perfect electrical engineering pun that works on multiple levels - political resistance, electrical resistance, and spiritual meditation all rolled into one circuit diagram sermon. The red resistor in the middle is clearly the charismatic leader of this ohm-azing movement.
