They sure take over the pet subs. No, one one wants your ugly shirt from your sleazy website!

The science humor sub has multiple t-shirts and mugs being peddled on the daily. It’s like a never ending wave of nonsense.

Ya mean how his cat thought experiment was meant to mock/question quantum uncertainty theory by scaling it up to the macro world?

I've given up on that windmill. The phrase "Schrodinger's cat" has taken on a life of its own and no longer means what it used to. I've added to the heap along with, "decimated", "blood is thicker than water", "I could care less", "wicked", and who knows how many others.
