This meme consists of two still frames from the Pirates of the Caribbean film franchise. The top frame shows a wide underwater shot of two silhouetted figures (Captain Jack Sparrow and Will Turner) walking across the seabed while carrying an overturned rowboat over their heads, supposedly to trap an air pocket under the boat. The bottom frame shows a close-up from inside the overturned boat, where Jack and Will are shown with their heads above the water line inside the boat, despite being fully submerged under the ocean. Overlaid text on the left side mocks the fact that this iconic movie stunt is physically impossible: the air pocket would not remain trapped in the boat at that ocean depth, and the characters would not be able to carry the heavy boat underwater against buoyancy and pressure as depicted. The joke highlights the silly, physics-defying plot hole that fans of the franchise have embraced as a funny, memorable part of the movie.

This is a single-panel meme with a text dialogue setup above a historical black and white portrait of physicist Max Planck. The fictional conversation depicts Max Planck telling his wife Marie Merck that he has discovered the smallest possible length in the universe, and asks for her suggestion on what to name it. She replies "Planck length", before cutting to Planck's deadpan, unimpressed facial expression. The joke relies on a crude double entendre: while the Planck length is a real, well-established scientific unit representing the smallest theoretically measurable length in quantum physics, the punchline implies the unit is named after Planck because the length of his penis is that small, explaining his displeased reaction. The original title of the meme, "there's smaller", further reinforces this phallic joke implication.

This meme consists of a block of hyperbolic humorous white text at the top, paired with a photograph of a dangerously unstable multi-story house below. The top text states the house is challenging physics, mathematics, gravity, engineering, space, time, NASA, Einstein, and the Holy Spirits all at once. The pictured house has heavily overhanging upper brick floors that are only supported by thin, flimsy exposed metal struts protruding from the lower levels, making the structure appear to defy gravity and basic engineering logic, and at extreme risk of collapsing. The surrounding area is a hilly informal residential neighborhood, with a green basketball hoop, utility poles, overhead power lines, and smaller adjacent houses visible around the unstable building.
