Here's a link to the comic on the artist's site. He works too hard to not get traffic for this.

[–]cyberneticmonkey 52 points53 points ago

Based on the title. I assumed this was the unavoidable punchline. (nsfw?)

[–]TheRedSpecial 16 points17 points ago

Give it a few hours and it'll show up as a [FIXED] post.

[–]PatrickFromBklyn 13 points14 points ago

The [FIXED] has Snake from MGS as the snake in the box.

[–]stfm -1 points0 points ago

Penis

Ambush.

[–]ARedFez 70 points71 points ago

Cat: Becomes nonexistent while still being existent.

[–]nimigoha 30 points31 points ago

It's actually dead and alive, and it's a superposition of both states that becomes one or the other when observed. But yes, I think this experiment should be there instead.

[–]ARedFez 2 points3 points ago

Well. Yeah. That's what I meant. Dumb me! Ha.

[–]garbieleus 0 points1 point ago

Schrödinger's Cat?

[–]vb622 0 points1 point ago

Most confusing experiment I've ever learned about....upvote for you

[–]Paradoxius 4 points5 points ago

Not an experiment. An impossible logical extreme that proves that quantum physics and regular physics are fundamentally different. A cat can't be dead and alive at the same time, which show that, to put it simply, weird stuff is happening.

[–]FrisianDude 0 points1 point ago

not confusing either.

[–]GoronElder 1 point2 points ago

You should check out quantum suicide, even more mind blowing.

[–]lookieausername 0 points1 point ago

What.

[–]GoronElder 0 points1 point ago

I'd link to the Wikipedia but I'm on my phone, just Google quantum suicide thought experiment.

[–]ARedFez 0 points1 point ago

Serial suiciding? That's what I'm getting from the wiki article.

[–]GoronElder 1 point2 points ago

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_suicide_and_immortality

This is what I was referring to, if that's the article you're reading then perhaps I misunderstood it.

[–]ARedFez 1 point2 points ago

At the start of the second iteration, if the Copenhagen interpretation is true, the wavefunction has already collapsed, so if the experimenter is already dead, there's a 0% chance of survival. However, if the many-worlds interpretation is true, a superposition of the live experimenter necessarily exists, regardless of how many iterations or how improbable the outcome.

Being alive no matter how many times you die.

It's a bit of a stretch to make a joke out of this. Ha.

[–]GoronElder 0 points1 point ago

I wasn't making a joke... whoever I replied to (I can't even remember now) seemed interested in a different thought experiment, so I recommended he read this.

[–]ARedFez 0 points1 point ago

I was making a joke, though.

Whatever. It doesn't matter. Ha.

[–]fora-mejora -1 points0 points ago

From the title, that's actually where I thought the joke was going.

Have an upvote.

This is an amazing picture for the sheer fact that it can be reposted a seemingly infinite amount of times and still get karma.

[–]iamasociopath22 42 points43 points ago

Lizard : Lizard.

[–]CarpetFibers 25 points26 points ago

How coincidental, I also noticed that!

[–]cthulhu_zuul 1 point2 points ago

When I was younger I had some pet anoles and had a pretty large, nice terrarium for them to hang out in.

This picture is pretty accurate for what pet lizards do at any given moment. They just tended to sit there, unless they were eating crickets or killing each other.

[–]Airazz 4 points5 points ago

Case in point puppy gets stuck in a box. Accepts fate and prepares to die with dignity.

[–]stupidQuestion316 0 points1 point ago

How could those people be so mean to that lovely puppy, naming him mr. Puff, for shame.

[–]doctorcrass 1 point2 points ago

or expecting it to preform some trick while it is stuck in an alternate black dimension.

[–]FrisianDude 0 points1 point ago

what a cute puuppppyyyy.

[–]Lingonium 7 points8 points ago

Is it sad that the first fill in the blank that popped into my head before clicking on the link was "Dick in a box!"

[–]spencer_duley[S] 0 points1 point ago

I tried to make people think about dock in a box, guess it worked

[–]smash360 -1 points0 points ago

OP got downvoted? I'm impressed.

[–]spencer_duley[S] 0 points1 point ago

Yeah but its because i misspelled dock

[–]supersonic00712 3 points4 points ago

Why is everybody being suck a dock to you?

[–]ImTheBanker 1 point2 points ago

Actually you spelled dock just fine

[–]short0411 3 points4 points ago

could've swore it you were going for the whole "Dick in a box" thing.

[–]Italian_Barrel_Roll 15 points16 points ago

Is this what happens when you put an ancient repost in a cardboard box?

[–]garbieleus 0 points1 point ago

well played

[–]SixxSixxSixxthDemon 0 points1 point ago

This post, that's what happens.

[–]Lostcory 1 point2 points ago

Hey look, 15 reposts!

[–]here_for_the_memes 1 point2 points ago

no cumbox mention yet?

[–]The_designer_pro 1 point2 points ago

you seem to have left out dick in a box...

[–]ImTheBanker 1 point2 points ago

"Animals reactions to being in a box" ..... I thinking I was awful and was the only one who thought an infant was pretty much a pet...

[–]stahlgrau 1 point2 points ago

[–]Rallerboy888 1 point2 points ago

Repost

[–]Laeryken[!] 1 point2 points ago

If you're going to repost, at least credit the artist.

[–]spencer_duley[S] 1 point2 points ago

Hahaha you guys are such docks

[–]Rottendog 3 points4 points ago

Me in my wife's box = O face

[–]katburg 1 point2 points ago

I guess infants are now animals? I'll start spreading the word.

[–]superluminal_girl 5 points6 points ago

In as much as humans are animals... yes.

[–]katburg 0 points1 point ago

I guess I should have done some research before posting that. lol I just didn't think that I'm in the same category as a lighting rat. Learn something new everyday. =]

[–]KatyScratchPerry 2 points3 points ago

as a what??

[–]FrisianDude 0 points1 point ago

True, I thought they were fungi at first. Oh well, we live and learn.

[–]insertuniquename 2 points3 points ago

I know it's a repost...But it still just makes me so happy. Lizard is by far my favorite.

[–]ibelurkin 0 points1 point ago

We have the same last name.

[–]jeberry12 0 points1 point ago

You have obviously never actually put a dog in a box.

[–]Beaumont21 0 points1 point ago

Its in a box!

[–]WarAndRuin 0 points1 point ago

they left out snake...

[–]AmbigramMan 0 points1 point ago

I cracked up at Bird: Must be nighttime.

[–]rspeed 0 points1 point ago

Birds sleep upright, usually with their knees bent.

[–]Askeee 0 points1 point ago

I think that bird is dead :(

[–]Clockwork757 0 points1 point ago

lizard lizard lizard lizard

[–]oldsoulhumor 0 points1 point ago

I've seen this a dozen times and it STILL makes me laugh

[–]J2W 0 points1 point ago

I think that the cat is both overloaded and under stimulated until the box is opened.

[–]scalpemnoles 0 points1 point ago

Can someone please explain to me how being stuck in a box qualifies as a sensory overload.

[–]penny013 0 points1 point ago

All I could think of is "Step 3: put your dick in the box."

The Internet has ruined me

[–]Wolfmade 0 points1 point ago

TIL infants are animals.

[–]MarlaJensine 1 point2 points ago

Screw these downvoters. An upvote for you.

[–]ramsrgood -1 points0 points ago
