When you find a meme that is either funny or unfunny depending on the context, however you do not know the context of it.
Person1: I saw this anime meme that feels like it could be satirical but also may not be.
Person2: Sounds like schrodinger's meme to me.

A Minor, usually between the ages of 16 and 17, that uses it as an excuse for their behaviour, claiming that their age makes it so they shouldn't face any consequence for their actions, but still expect you to both respect their opinion (you can't disagree with them because they're a minor and they don't know any better) while also not treat them like a child (they're a minor but they're very mature and their opinion is important, even if the matter at hand is 18+ which they shouldn't be interacting with in the first place) but due to their age (16-17) they do, indeed, know better, most people who act like this will change their trick once they're 18 by claming your opinion doesn't matter because you're older than them, this never seems to end well however.
Minor(17): KILL YOURSELF
NotMinor(18): I don't think you should say that
Minor(17): WHAT???? IM LITERALLY A MINOR DO NOT SPEAK WITH ME YOU PEDOPHILE
In this case the minor showcases an example of Schrodinger's Minor, they do not take any responsibility for what they said and instead attack the person who replied to them claiming that they're a minor and they shouldn't interact with them.

Someone who says something really stupid and decides if he was joking or not based on the reactions around them.

Someone who makes a distasteful/offensive comment (Racist, sexist, homophobic etc), then tries to play it off after it doesn't land.
Guy 1 (Schrodinger's Douchebag): "Marlon mogs all of you? Yeah, but he's black."
Guy 2: "No, he's not."
Guy 1: "Oh, he's not?" *Nervously tapping on table*
Guy 2: "Have you seen his parents? They're white."
Guy 1: "Oh."
Guy 2: "I think he's just really tan. He does mog."
Guy 1: "H-He mogs us to oblivion."
Guy 2: "No, he's not."
Guy 1: "Oh, he's not?" *Nervously tapping on table*
Guy 2: "Have you seen his parents? They're white."
Guy 1: "Oh."
Guy 2: "I think he's just really tan. He does mog."
Guy 1: "H-He mogs us to oblivion."

Much like Schrodinger’s Joke, Schrodinger’s Flirt is a flirtatious gesture in which, if one or both parties are clearly joking, then neither should take it seriously, but if they are both serious then they should let fly.
Friend: “Hey dude, she was clearly flirting with you. Did you tap that?”
Other Friend: “Nah man, Schrodinger’s Flirt. Schrodinger's Flirt means it’s just a joke between us but if she ever was dead serious, I’d fuck her everyday of the week and twice on Sunday.”
Other Friend: “Nah man, Schrodinger’s Flirt. Schrodinger's Flirt means it’s just a joke between us but if she ever was dead serious, I’d fuck her everyday of the week and twice on Sunday.”

When someone makes a bigoted comment (Racist, Homophobic, etc) and tries to play it off as a joke after realizing the joke didn't land and it isn't the right crowd.
Guy 1 (Schrodinger's Douchebag, Clav): "Marlon mogs all of you? Yeah, but he's black."
Guy 2: "No, he's not."
Guy 1: "Oh, he's not?" *Nervously tapping on table*
Guy 2: "Have you seen his parents? They're white."
Guy 1: "Oh."
Guy 2: "I think he's just really tan. He does mog."
Guy 1: "H-He mogs us to oblivion."
(Later that day)
Guy 2: "Clav really tried to Schrodinger's Douchebag his way out of that one. We should stop talking to him."
Guy 2: "No, he's not."
Guy 1: "Oh, he's not?" *Nervously tapping on table*
