Relativity
is something that is so well associated with our lives. Little did Einstein
know that what he invented long back, enriching the field of Physics would one
day be used to compare Facebook display pictures of two girls. Creepy, isn’t
it?
Well, today
the world functions in a very simple principle. We will do whatever our peer
group thinks is good. So if the beautiful girl in my group posts a picture with
a pout face, one of her lesser good looking friend would comment something like
this, “Aww...my baby, you look so
adorable :*” And when that lesser good looking member of the group uploads
a similar picture, there would be a return of compliment, which will read like,
“My hot baby :*”
Now that’s
relativity. Now for both the girls this is just a way of complimenting each
other. One appreciating the beauty and thanking her for being with her, while
the other one is acknowledging the fact that someone is looking up to her and
is her follower. And since she thinks she is awesome and if someone follows her,
then the follower has to be awesome hence complimenting back someone awesome is
very awesome. (Ideal blonde case scenario).
Now one
theory of Relativity says, two events,
simultaneous for one observer, may not be simultaneous for another observer if
the observers are in relative motion.
Now for me, I am an average Facebook user,
probably single for quite some time and as I adore the beauty of someone by
stalking her cover picture (Strictly
according to John Keats principle, A thing of beauty is a joy forever) and
come across the lesser good looking girl’s profile and in two windows I compare
both the girls and read their complementing comments. I can draw a conclusion
that one of them is definitely not pretty and making a fool out of herself. Hence,
how I see both the girls is totally different than how they see each other.
Postulate proved.
