Schrödinger's confidentiality

The confidentiality of a specific set of political matters is in a state of superposition due to dishonest obfuscation until a politician or some elite in society honestly admits whether or not it is confidential.

News reporter said, "Was the meeting confidential?" Politician's response, "No!" News reporter replied, "Can you tell us what it's about than?" Politician's response, "That's confidential." News reporter replied, "Sir, you made the description of the meeting in a state of Schrödinger's confidentiality due to your dishonest contradictory responses. Can you please honestly explain whether or not it actually is confidential or not, and if not whether you're willing to tell us?"

A: Thanks, bro.

Schrödinger's Cat

Schrödinger's Cat is thought experiment that shows something called superposition, with a box, a cat, some poison (or radiation, or bomb, or whatever, it is just supposed to kill the cat), and a object that could read a particle's spin. Erwin Schrödinger thought that if you put a cat in a box with something that could harm them, and you can't see inside the box, the cat is both dead and alive all at the same time.

Will you PLEASE STOP TALKING ABOUT Schrödinger's Cat, BILLY?

Schrödinger's Toilet

When the toilet is clogged with toilet paper, so you've flushed it over and over until you're at the point where you have no idea if the weight from the water will finally flush it or if the toilet's gonna overflow. That near-future toilet now exists in a superposition of being flushed and overflowing on the floor with your shit, so your planning brain has to treat it like both outcomes have happened (toilet superposition) as you pull the handle.

With that flush, I had come to the point of Schrödinger's Toilet. It was salvation or death. There was no turning back now.

Schrödinger's Cage

Schrödinger's Cage: The act of subjugating oneself to solitare and study whilst their colleagues and friends enjoy merriments. The individual then proceeds to waste their time ultimately coming to the conclusion that sed time could have been used enjoying such merriments. Schrödinger Cage provides a double entendre acting as the name of the man it was intended to reflect upon and providing an allegory into the mentality of its victims as the act of trapping oneself into a metaphorical cage.

He didn't come to the hangout because he had too much work to do, but he didn't do any of his work anyway and just procrastinated. He is doing the Schrödinger's Cage!

Schrödinger’s Communism

This is an argument generally used by right-wing or pro-capitalist people or politicians in regards to their ideological views on communism. This is related to their often bipolar or unfounded claims that communism is such a terrible system that it simply falls on its own, while simultaneously being so powerful that it needs to be personally dismantled from outside powers like the United States of America.

Schrödinger’s Communism in an argument:
"Communism is an inherently broken system that always leads to economic failure and collapse—but if the U.S. hadn't stepped in to stop it, half the world would be under its control by now."
