Actually, it’s the speed of light squared.

Dear Fellow Wooters,

Am I missing something here?

You Matter! I get that.

Then, there’s the science behind it.

And then, there’s “You’re Energy”.

I want so much to like this shirt but the last part has me totally confused.

Anyone here care to ‘splain to “Lucy” (or Luke, in my case) what’s up with this shirt…

They turned the motivational phrase “You matter” into a Physics joke using Einstein’s equation E=mc². You matter but if you multiply yourself by the speed of light then you’re energy. E (energy), m (matter), c2 (speed of light in a vacuum.) Matter x Speed of Light² = Energy

I want to like this shirt. I do like this shirt. But the previous comments are only half the problem.
If you don’t get e=mc^2 then it doesn’t make any sense
The other problem is that if you do understand e=mc^2, you know it doesn’t really work like that,
so my physics friends would give me lectures and I’d have to explain it all the time to my non-science friends

It’s rather simple. If you purchase this shirt then you would be advised not to hang out with stupid people.

Non-science response: “Physics joke”
Science response: “Lighten up, even Einstein had a sense of humor”

I has the same energy as the famous “jerk store” Seinfeld ep.

I had a TI-82, lol.

It’s deep references like that, that made all the ERB videos so awesome.
I only go back as far as a second hand commodore Vic-20, and I was like, in the second grade.

I didn’t have a home computer until I got a 386 Packard Bell in Junior High. I had to do school work on a family friends Apple 2 until then. The Packard Bell plus Windows 3.0 felt so next level relative to the Apple Basic command prompt. :rofl::rofl:

For what it’s worth, it does say that.

Yeah.
That commodore was mostly a toy, I had a few video games and playing around with some basic programming from the guides.
I didn’t get my first real computer until my second or third year of college. It was still another hand me down from my dad… It was around the year 2000 and it did the job.

I just love how all of these systems that are now ancient archaic relics once were cutting edge.

I rode that 8086 architecture until college. Finally got a Pentium 2 and it was again a world of difference going from a Windows 3.11 world to Windows 98 and 33 mhz to 233mhz clock speed.

What is even more crazy to me, is that the latest and greatest today, is not a MAJOR shift with each newer model. I recall when speeds and storage size would double with a newer versions and now, it’s like a limit has been reached… People get the newer version for status, but not because they need the higher computations or any specific feature really. I’m still chugging along on my Galaxy s5 and it really missing anything.

Not that you know of…how could you?

Stay happy, old timer.
