Schrodinger's Cat

A hypothetical cat that is simultaneously dead and alive because we don't know whether the nuclear particle has decayed or not, releasing the trigger that kills the cat. Used as an example that quantum mechanics is completely absurd when we look at it from a mundane perspective.
Schrodinger didn't test this experiment on a cat.

Schrodinger's Pokeball

When playing Pokemon Go, you catch a Pokemon, and it freezes on the closed Pokeball, therefore, you do not know if you caught it or not

Schrodinger's Shorts

When an individual, typical a sorority female is wearing a shirt that goes past their waist and knees obscuring the possibility of whether or not they are wearing shorts. Like Schrodinger's eponymous cat, there is a state of uncertainty of whether the individual is wearing shorts. Thus they are simultaneously wearing shorts and not wearing shorts, until observed.
Bill: Yo that girl is wearing a long ass shirt man. Idk if she even has shorts.

Al: That's Schrodinger's shorts af bro.
