Everyone's heard of Erwin Schrodinger's famous thought experiment. You put a cat in a box with a bottle of poison, which many people would suggest is about as far as you need to go.

Summary

This humorous quote is a playful reference to Erwin Schrodinger's well-known thought experiment known as "Schrodinger's cat." The thought experiment involves a hypothetical scenario where a cat inside a box is simultaneously both alive and dead until observed. However, the quote implies that the initial stage of putting a cat in a box with a potentially deadly substance (bottle of poison) might already be considered extreme enough by many, humorously highlighting the absurdity and dark nature of Schrodinger's iconic experiment.
