      Volts give the push. Amps are the actual flow (charge per second). Ohms try to prevent the amps from flowing (technically restricting the charges from flowing).

        Oh… She’s pushing her. It makes more sense now.

          The explanation makes a lot more sense if you already understand what is being explained

            …if you already have some understanding of what is being explained. This did clarify it a bit more to me!

            Oh I understand Ohm’s law, I just throught the picture was yellow fisting green while the resistor (2.1 kΩ?) held her in place.

        Ohms try to prevent the amps from flowing

        Why is Ohms such a bitch? Let her flow.

          Cause Amps can be a serious bitch when she really gets going, you’ve got to keep her in check.

            So should I just tie a rope to my wife? For when she really gets going?

        I thought Ohm was tightening the waist, like a corset, so Amp could get through. But, maybe I was distracted.

  1. Don’t throw mud. Behave like an intellectual and remember the human.
  2. Keep it rooted (on topic).
  3. No spam.
  4. Infographics welcome, get schooled.


If you are here asking: “Is this a science meme?”

Probably, yes. We use the Dawkins definition of meme: a replicating idea, not just an image macro with a fact on it. A good post here doesn’t need to teach you something. It needs to make you ask something: who, what, where, when, and especially why or how.

Science isn’t a filing cabinet of facts, it’s a conversation. For example, a photo of an eel or other localized wildlife counts because most people never see one, and wonder is the first step of inquiry. A car meme counts if it makes you curious about what’s under the bonnet. If you want to talk about something you noticed in the world, chances are someone else wants to talk about it too.

We moderate for vibe, not category. Pruning is light, especially where a post creates interesting discussion. Experimenting is encouraged.

See the pinned paper on Shitposting as Public Pedagogy if you want the academic case for why this works.
