In summary, the conversation discusses the meaning of the phrase "kal se padhenge" and a famous limerick about special relativity. The phrase translates to "I'll start reading tomorrow" and reflects the idea of procrastination. The limerick plays on the concept of time dilation in special relativity. The conversation also mentions a thread on Physics Forums for science jokes and memes.

I'm not sure that everyone here knows what 'kal se padhenge' (कल से पढ़ेंगे) means, so I'll explain (I don't know Hindi or Urdu, but I know how to use online translators): it means literally 'tomorrow from will read', more anglo-idiomatically, 'I'll start reading tomorrow' -- the idea is along the lines of no matter how many days you have available for studying, you'll keep putting it off until tomorrow, and will as a consequence experience increasing pressure as you approach the exam date.Anti Hydrogen said:

Famous Special Relativity limerick:
There once was a lady named Bright
Who traveled much faster than light.
She went out one day
In a relative way,
And returned the previous night.
