Postgres Rejects a Hormonal Naming Mix-Up

Description

A sparse white-background cartoon places the blue PostgreSQL elephant logo on the right, outlined in black like a character entering a conversation. A small dark speech bubble above it says “hey guys,” while people at the lower left point toward a sign reading “PROGESTERONE.” The elephant immediately replies in another dark box, “NOT WHAT I'M CALLED.” The joke hinges on confusing PostgreSQL/Postgres, the relational database, with the similarly beginning name of the hormone progesterone.
