gauge theory

In physics, a gauge theory describes the dynamics of a system by introducing more variables than are actually necessary to describe the system. For a gauge theory, there’s no “right number” of variables, so you’re stuck either being too vague or a bit redundant… Or you’re stuck with a non-local theory, which shivers my timbers.
“Why do Eminem and Sean Combs have like 5 different stage names each?”

“Yo, that’s because MCs operate in a non-Abelian gauge theory!”

“Seriously?”

“For sure. That’s why you don’t want to cross them. They always remember.”
