A phenomenon where no one knows if Micheal Morbius actually says “it’s morbin time” due to nobody ever having watched the movie. People make memes about him saying “it’s morbin time” but people make memes about him not saying “it’s morbin time”, and no one knows who’s correct because no one watched Morbius
Person 1:”Hey, did Micheal Morbius say “its morbin time” in the movie?”
Person 2:”yes”
Person 1:”but it says here that he didn’t”
Person 2:”ah, that’s called Schrodinger’s Morbius”
Person 2:”yes”

Making a half-sarcastic comment to a group of people that can be rebuked as sarcasm/banter if unappreciated, or just as easily allowed to slide if it's appreciated.
The name is derived from the famous Schrödinger's cat experiment, a demonstration of the concept of quantum superposition. 'The cat in this box is either dead or alive, and we have no way of knowing for certain until we open the box...'

Schrodinger's Shapiro is a person who starts a debate and decides whether he was serious or not based on the outcome. Troll if he loses, serious if he wins.
Attorney: "And this concludes the defense regarding the case of property trespassing. My client is not guilty."
Judge: "I find the defendant not gui-"
Plaintiff: "Chill, your honour. I didn't sue him for real, it's just a troll."
Attorney: "Objection, your honour. That is clearly Schrodinger's Shapiro."
