Memes are a part of modern-day social culture now. Some are really understandable and some go off our heads. Some are total nonsense and some are really thought-provoking. I’m not really a fan of the meme culture but there are certain memes that are very informative and hide a deep meaning behind the humorous representation. In this story, which certainly is slightly different than the rest of my stories here, I shall share some of the most thought-provoking and intellectually informative memes associated primarily with physics and mathematics. Let’s see how many of these you can actually understand. All the following memes have been extracted from Reddit and the sources of each have been mentioned along with the respective images.

Let me know if you want me to explain any of these in the responses. If you have your own interpretation regarding any of these memes, you’re most welcome to share those too. The most favorite physics meme of mine is the Classical v/s quantum one as it portrays a very important incompatibility in modern physics and the bizarreness of quantum theory both at the same time. Let me know yours!
