  1. fuzz on the concept says:

    no Einstein wrote that

  2. MRN ♂ says:

    Guess it’s not rocket science.

  3. Well I never! says:

    THIRD!

  4. Jason N says:

    new rapper

  5. MRN ♂ says:

    Since c is just a constant, it does work for some value of c.
    (speed of light to the 2/3 power)

  6. papple77 says:

    so this is not right then?

  7. sangrei says:

    yay science

  8. Aja says:

    At least they got the sum on the left right.

  9. Mookie says:

    Looks like E got a raise.

  10. iFail says:

    i am stupid for not knowing what’s wrong with the pic?
    (like i dont know what you’re gonna answer…)

  11. I’m not sure if this has any influence, but there is a College around this area that uses this as a marketing ploy. Education = Montgomery County Community College

  12. Rev says:

    Because MC cubed is much better than MC Squared

  13. lolwut says:

    Suddenly, I feel a lot more energetic!

  14. Ms B ♥ says:

    I guess they’re not cut out for rocket surgery.

  15. RedHeadedStepChild says:

    Must be a very “Special” school. Even the picture of a molecule model is a fail. Stupid electrons being on the same orbit, smashing into each other, and making nuclear energy.

  16. Funnyboi says:

    It’s funny because….

    …because…

    I’ll show myself out. Thank you for everything.

  17. Brewski says:

    “There is not the slightest indication that energy will ever be obtainable from the atom.”
    -Albert Einstein, 1932

  18. RoboGeisha says:

    Science just got 1 1/2 times more X-TREME!

  19. BoobySocks says:

    E=MCHammer

  20. ZombieApocalypse says:

    Those are some high energy kids.

  21. failinator says:

    im posting from my wii haha

  22. Hondo says:

    One of five characters are correct… that’s 80%. Good enough for a B in the public school system.

  23. Little Girl Blue says:

    This fail is bombdiggity good.

  24. Power failure. I hate when that happens.

  25. Brewski says:

    Thank you for not spamming our blog again! Goodbye!

  26. 5 eagles C.C.C. says:

    *5 eagles swoops downs and rips Mydrunktexts head off with his talons and drops it on the ground for ZA*

  27. Little Girl Blue says:

    We need a new fail. This one’s lost all its power.

  28. Esergone says:

    Leave it to schools to keep raising the bar another peg.

  29. Anonymous says:

    This looks shopped. I can tell from some of the pixels and by having seen quite a few shops in my time.

  30. mlambguy2513 says:

    E=mc2 = Mariah Carey!

  31. Sud_Vicious says:

    Prove it is not cubed! (Show your work.)

    • markc says:

      It’s not cubed because the units would not work out correctly. Didn’t your high school physics teacher tell you to check units?

  32. anger managment says:

    It should say E=MC5

  33. That’s even more energy

  34. Jenn says:

    E=MC^Hammer, yay

    That looks like a children’s classroom though… why would they even put an equation like that up… even if it’s wrong lol.

  35. Lonemagpie says:

    Einstein certainly didn’t write that, but a Dr Who fan might have…

  36. Jackson says:

    Looks photoshopped to me. The fonts are the same between the adding picture and the E=MC^3. So if you compare the 3 from the 1+2=3 and the superscript 3 from E=MC^3, you see that they are not the same, as the one from 1+2=3 clearly has a fatter bottom. Not to mention it’s really easy to turn a 2 into a 3 with photoshop. Therefore, this picture is PHOTOSHOPPED.

  37. Difdi says:

    The really sad thing is, I bet that if anyone tried to correct it with a sharpie marker, the place would probably have them arrested for vandalism…

  38. Timothy John says:

    No, not Einstein’s or Mariah Carey’s. BTW, good evening, watch this video…

  39. gasker says:

    The comments on this site are way more amussing than the pictures.

  40. Shnurui says:

    Sadly, if you run the numbers, knowing that Einstein was in fact, Dyslexic to his death, you see that that is actually correct.

    However,

    That is a kenetic force equasion, otherwise we would already have Food Replicators and Teleporters.

  41. Ben says:

    That is great.

  42. RedM00n1 says:

    Look what Fail has done… It wins :D

  43. joe says:

    yeah, yeah, we all know “e equals mc squared” but the pic is actually not a fail… look it up, dumb asses.

  44. andrea says:

    ehmmmm,
    good shape to learn

  45. cvillalpando says:

    what are you talking about? 2+1 IS 3. no fail there (,,,)

  46. Harry says:

    i lol’d

  47. Pierre E. says:

    Well, it all depends on the definition of E, M and C, after all…
    (and on a side note, the mass-energy-equivalency E=mc² is only an approximation of the real equation, which is quite a bit more complicated)

    • markc says:

      *** (and on a side note, the mass-energy-equivalency E=mc² is only an approximation of the real equation, which is quite a bit more complicated) ***

      Uh, no it’s not. It’s exact. I have a degree in physics.

  48. Anonymous says:

    lol, the entire surface of the world would have been obliterated when hiroshima was bombed in 1945 if e=mc^3. twice. not to mention the lateral damage. imagine if e really equaled mc^3 but einstein thought it was mc^2. that would suck.

  49. namedastech says:

    uh huh… they may be just copy and pasted the 3 from the math equation… erm…

  50. FrankN.Stein says:

    what? e=mc³ is much better than e=mc²! it’s more! must be better! ;)

  51. Dr. Opotimmus. says:

    EUREKA! the answer is 42. Shame on you Mr. Einstein. Now your just average like the guy who came up with E=MC1

  52. Dave says:

    This fail is at a Wegmans in Rochester: http://twitpic.com/g2i4a and no, it’s not photoshopped as suggested above.

  53. Not at Home says:

    Eureka!!, that’s how you get faster then light speed!

  54. Harry says:

    Enstein FAIL!

  55. john says:

    it’s correct in c=1 units

  56. David says:

    This picture isn’t a fail, E=MC2 AND E=MC3. Look it up. FAIL BLOG JUST FAILED!

  57. Shadowslayer says:

    e^2=m^2*c^4+p^2*c^2 you guys got it all wrong. Muhaha! You all argued about phsically nothing.

  58. Not everyone can be friggin’ Einstein.

  59. HiliarityThyNameIsFail says:

    Albert is rolling around in his grave at this “You’re doing it WRONG”

  60. mike says:

    … it’s all relative.

  61. phain says:

    seems like albert einstein had failed to us…

  62. Lochlyn says:

    There is a classic Doctor Who episode featuring Jon Pertwee as the doctor where the Master explains that in temporal physics, E=Mc^3 is in fact correct.

  63. Jay says:

    So is this how their going to justify raising my energy prices?

  64. TryedIt@Home says:

    yep you cube not square it. wtf was Einstein thinking!?!

  65. Victoria says:

    E=MC3 is actually correct. When Einstein first used this theory in the Manhattan project, he underestimated the power and damage it could do. Anyways, it’s “Energy=Mass x Constant cubed”.

  66. Kellie says:

    is it ok that i dont get this?

  67. E=MC3 and E=MC2, both fail.

    ‘You do not really understand something unless you can explain it to your grandmother.’ — Albert Einstein.

    E < ΦC∞ , then

    e < ΦC∞.

    ‘e is a perfect half, rest of it is an illusion’, he said…

  68. Jimmy says:

    Einstein was wrong end of story!

    God is great, I like muslims

  69. This the full explanation of my post from 14 July 2010 at 3:48pm

    The Truth about E=MC2, Creation and The Big Bang Theory commonly explained.
    When I was still a teenager, in my fourteens, my father called me to his watch-making workshop, sat me down on the top of his lap swinging to the left and to the right along with the tick-tack’s sound of the grandfather clock’s pendulum coming from the furthest corner of the room, he said: “Close your eyes my son and imagine, just imagine”, “Imagine what?” I said, “Imagine the world. Imagine the whole universe” he said calmly “That would be difficult” I replied, But when he pushed me out off of this earthly environment view into Space, helping me to create and build another view about surrounding me cosmos by adding into the imagined picture every part of the existing visible and invisible world; all existing planets, suns, moons, comets, stars, pulsars, quasars, galaxies and all possible imaginable objects of the all existing space between here and there, moving me away from the Solar system, further and further away, passing by all those visible objects and other, he ended me up somewhere where I have just passed the last, or I’d rather say the first star dust, somewhere a few …illiard light years away from our planet Earth, somewhere where I ended up in a deep-deep dark matter drifting away further and further somewhere where I could not see anything, somewhere where I could not hear anything, somewhere where I did not feel anything or any motion. There was a silence, just motionless silence, nothing else but darkness and silence. Inertia. Total inertia.
    He kept me within this motionless stage for some time when with the same calm voice he asked the first question: ‘Imagine it? Are you?’ ‘Yes’, I nodded, ‘Now my son’ he simply said, ‘Draw a straight line right across this image of yours, divide it into two pieces, into two halves. Not equal ones! There is nothing like equal halves existing in the entire universe. There is no single particle equal with another… not to mention about a half of the universe. Put one of the cut halves aside and the other half divide in the same manner into two (halves). Continue. Continue cutting remaining halves until it become so small that you have to use a magnifying glass to continue. Continue. Then when it becomes so small again that you have to use a microscope to continue, continue. Continue cutting until you have to use the most powerful electronic microscope on earth to continue. Continue. Continue until you have to only use the most powerful imaginary microscope to continue. Continue’, he said. Then he asked: ‘When or will you ever be able to cut “the last half”? If anything like that “the last half” exist? There will be always a remaining half ready to be cut and divided into two indefinitely’, he added.
    ‘For some time the world of science is discovering what metaphysical and spiritual teachers have known for centuries. The physical world is not really composed of any matter at all; the basic component of it is a force or essence, which is called energy. Things appear to be solid and separate from each other where our physical senses normally perceive them. While on the atomic and subatomic level, a solid matter is a cluster of small particles. Particles within particle called sub-particles. Bosons, which are assumed to be massless. They were detected by high-energy experiments at the CERN laboratories in 1983. Weinberg, Salam, and Glashow shared the 1979 Nobel Prize for physics for their model, protons, and eventually photons which turn out to be just pure energy’, they said.
    The speed of light may be the only constant in the universe. Everything else changes! Mr. Einstein observed that matter could be converted into energy just as energy was converted into matter (and anti-matter) when the universe was created. If everything changes, so the speed of light, too, is changeable.

    As it was in 1989 scientists proposed this theory that there is no single sub-particle equal with another sub-particle in the entire universe, ‘Let’s apply this theory to an equation. Let’s try it on the equation of: E=MC2 ‘, he said.
    An equation is a mathematical statement, expressed in symbols, that two things are the same (or equivalent). Equations are written with an equal sign ‘=’. Equations are often used to state the equality of two expressions containing one or more variables.
    An equation contains left & right side.
    When the left side of the equation is ‘E’ – one particle
    the right side of the equation is ‘MC2’ – another particle,
    logically speaking;
    one particle = another particle
    Above equation is untrue.
    one sub-particle ≠ another sub-particle
    Above equation might be or is true.
    When the left side of equation is not equal ‘≠’ with the right side, then
    E = MC2
    Above equation is untrue,
    Because and especially that there is a progress; power 2, then
    E ≠ MC2
    Above equation might be or is true.
    When the left side is not equal with the right side of equation it must be then
    smaller or greater, > or <.
    Then the left side can be or is only < (smaller) because the progress is on the right side.
    E < MC2
    When variable mass symbol M is replaced by photon symbol Φ
    E < ΦC2
    Above equation might be or is true,
    When the power ‘2’ is replaced by power to ‘3, 4, 5, 6, 7’…etc. or ‘∞’ (to infinity) then the left side of the equation is definitely not equal with the right side because there is even greater progress, then
    E < ΦC∞ , then
    e < ΦC∞.

    ‘e is a perfect half, rest of it is an illusion’, look at it he said,
    ‘all it is illusion’.

    ‘There are still some who believe that the speed of light may be the only constant in the whole universe, everything else changes. If everything changes so the speed of light does. Everything is energy. Energy is everything. Everything is a light/photon in the infinite speed of light’.
    Einstein's statement that 'the distinction between past, present, and future is only an illusion' comes from a letter he wrote to the family of his lifelong friend Michele Besso on 21 March 1955, Einstein Archive, 7-245, published in The Quotable Einstein (Princeton University Press, 1996), p.61.

    The Big Bang Theory commonly explained.
    The first thing which came to my mind to explain my father's observation to a layman is the sequence of the Russian Doll:
    KEEP IT OPENING TO INFINITY.
