Synopsis
One of three shorts adapted from Bob the Angry Flower. Bob may have drunk all the beer in the fridge; he may not have. Until the fridge is opened, the number of beers drunk is indeterminiate! The problem is that the wavefunction doesn't collapse no matter how much Bob observes.
Trivia
- This is a spoof of Schrodinger's Cat, a famous and important thought experiment posed to examine whether quantum mechanics makes sense at the level of everyday, classical physics.
- Due to quantum tunneling there is a good chance the beer is outside the fridge.
