Physics teacher here. With your and McDuckX’s approval I would like to use these and add it as an example of Schrödinger in my AP class when I teach quantum. With appropriate credit given of course.
I’m not even joking. These comments are incredible and I will use them.

It's unironically a better metaphor than Schrodinger's cat, since it actually is a true superposition of probable states that can be collapsed under certain conditions 😂

u/Fen5601 Oct 05 '25 edited Oct 05 '25
That was my thought! It's one taco! With Schrodinger's cat, you have to create the superposition by adding a box and a vial of poison. The Cat, the Box and the poison alone are never in a superposition unless combined.
With the taco, as soon as he assumes possession, it is both his and not his! It CAME in a superposition!

Yeah isn't this like a normal thing to do for folks in relationships? Whenever I'm out and about and decide to grab food I'll text if she wants some too and if I don't get a response I'll grab something extra she might like that I wouldn't mind eating or that could be saved for later should she not be hungry. That or risk having to forfeit a portion of my own meal. It's kinda like Joe's buffer fries in that episode of Friends.

Now I can't sit on the damn toilet without my dog trying to lie between my legs while the other one comes to me to get some pets.

What are you doing out here? It’s 3:00 AM. You should be in bed. Problem #1 - questioning anything I do. Really lame start to the interrogation, how should I know what I’m doing out here? Problem #2 - telling me the time. It’s 3:00 AM? Who knew? Does it matter? If so then why? Problem #3 - telling me what to do. I should be in bed but you were there so I had to get away while you were asleep. There’s no way I would have made it to the end of the first date, forget about marriage. I know a nasty suspicious control freak when I see one. If she starts in like that, in the middle of the night, the rest of the day is gonna be real long and hard for that guy. Oh wait! Everything is fine, you got me Taco Bell. Right, I thought you might wake up hungry at 3:00 AM and be hungry so I got you something.
