The meme brutally murders the misconception that Java and JavaScript are related just because they share "Java" in their names. It's like assuming cars and carpets are related because they both start with "car." The naming similarity is purely coincidental—JavaScript was named during the peak of Java's popularity as a marketing gimmick. One's a compiled, statically-typed language that runs on a virtual machine; the other's an interpreted, dynamically-typed language that powers the web. Different ancestors, different purposes, different ecosystems. Next up: explaining why hamburgers contain no ham.
