The stylisation works so well on my mind that it took me a bigger while than you think to figure out what the meme was about xD

I had to read your comment to realize that this wasn't a meme about soy sauce

I had to read both of your comments and then really work my brain to figure it out.

I had to read your comment to know that the first two others comments were not making a joke.

I remember the joke they made when everyone in Townsville switched bodies and buttercup couldn't answer the phone using the professors hand

Yeah, I think there were other episodes where they had actual hands and didn't know how to use them.

Ok. After staring 2 minutes on the image and asking myself what's wrong with the sushi/shrimp/soy sauce/chopsticks ... I - at last - got it. Oooof.

The factorio kind of science. No seriously how can you figure out how to make automatically shooting and aiming turrets that don't use electricity, by putting gears and copper plates into flasks (they also somehow turn into a liquid) and putting a bunch of them into a lab?
