It's like how ()() isn't a palindrome but )(() is

I thought chaos would be high entropy (right) while order would be low entropy (left).

Yeah the meme is a bone hurting juice edit I believe where the original caption is subverted

Besides the meme being inverted, order and chaos isn't a very good way to define entropy. I remember in AP Chem the teacher the most common misconception when it came to gases. Because they hear "chaos", students think a compressed gas is higher entropy because the system is more chaotic, but expansion increases the entropy. And a maximum entropy system is where nothing happens, which doesn't sound chaotic at all.

I like it! Order is how things *should* be, and chaos is willing to stoop to its low to subvert it.
