:{{w|Log_profile|LOG}} is also a video format, though I don't understand this well enough to discern whether this might be part of the joke or an unintentional coincidence.[[Special:Contributions/172.70.86.80|172.70.86.80]] 09:59, 23 January 2024 (UTC) | :{{w|Log_profile|LOG}} is also a video format, though I don't understand this well enough to discern whether this might be part of the joke or an unintentional coincidence.[[Special:Contributions/172.70.86.80|172.70.86.80]] 09:59, 23 January 2024 (UTC) | ||

: it's pretty common for videos to have flashbacks and scene changes. Graphing the electron beam for crt video would be pretty pretty straightforward, just wavy line(s) with pulses that mean go down one line and back the far "left."[[Special:Contributions/108.162.216.19|108.162.216.19]] 17:14, 23 January 2024 (UTC) | : it's pretty common for videos to have flashbacks and scene changes.

There seems to be a subtle relativity joke in the title text, with misalignments in both time and space being a reference to spacetime. {{unsigned ip|172.71.154.42|00:05, 23 January 2024}} | There seems to be a subtle relativity joke in the title text, with misalignments in both time and space being a reference to spacetime. {{unsigned ip|172.71.154.42|00:05, 23 January 2024}} | ||

Shall we try to straighten out the plot with regards to the axes, leaving the log stripes all wavy? For kicks? {{unsigned|Enfield|02:14, 23 January 2024}} | Shall we try to straighten out the plot with regards to the axes, leaving the log stripes all wavy?

I feel like this comic, along with others like 2023: Y-Axis and 2311: Confidence Interval should go in a category for misleading charts. -- {{unsigned ip|172.69.33.111|02:23, 23 January 2024}} | I feel like this comic, along with others like 2023: Y-Axis and 2311: Confidence Interval should go in a category for misleading charts. -- {{unsigned ip|172.69.33.111|02:23, 23 January 2024}} | ||

It may be interesting to refer to a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tephigram tephigram] instead of, or as well as, a SkewT-LogP as a tephigram has no normal axis. In my opinion, this makes the point even stronger. A tephigram shows the same lines as a SkewT-LogP but pressure is drawn as a curve, which straightens out the entropy lines. Temperature (te) and entropy (phi) lines are straight and normal to each other, but at around 45° to the page.
