We've generally avoided the whole LOLcats phenomena that has been making the internet rounds of late, but sometimes an idea reaches its hilarious peak and simple must be acknowledged.

Personally I think the whole idea could be justified for leading to this one image, but then again I'm a closet physics nerd and have been known to watch Richard Feynman lectures on the weekend.

For those wanting more explanation of the humor, have a look at the Wikipedia entry on [Schrödinger's Cat][4].
