What? I know they are memeable things, but cats aren't subject to the Heisenberg Uncertainty principle. Can you honestly tell me you have never seen a cat or any animal for that matter change their facial expression without much movement? Even a yawn?

I'll explain this joke to you when you're older.

I actually almost made a joke about the Heisenberg uncertainty being how pure the meth is going to be when you cook it but I decided against it but now that you mention it.

I guess it's a whoosh moment? I thought you were claiming the image as AI :p

[–] mirshafie@europe.pub 5 points 1 week ago

Yeah, basically. It's just a bit of colorful embellishment about the sometimes unpredictable/unruly behavior of cats, which is a common trope. "Like herding cats" et.c.

Wouldn't be so sure about that Heisenberg principle. This Schrödinger's Cat thing must come from somewhere...
