The humor arises from the juxtaposition of the emotional "mixed signals" with the literal, technical interpretation of "mixed signals" in the context of electrical or electronic signals. Instead of trying to understand the person's confusing behavior through emotional intelligence or communication, the meme suggests a hyper-technical and somewhat absurd approach: applying a mathematical technique used for analyzing waveforms to analyze human behavior.
The person in the image, with their engineering-related attire and the presence of electronic equipment, reinforces the technical aspect of the joke. It suggests that this individual approaches interpersonal communication with the same analytical mindset they might apply to electrical engineering problems.
In essence, the meme is a humorous take on overthinking or applying a technical solution to a non-technical, emotional problem. It's relatable to those who have experienced the frustration of "mixed signals" in relationships and also plays on the stereotype of engineers or technically-minded individuals having a very logical and analytical approach to everything.
