I Liked When Science Was Like Trivia. How About You?

Remember when science class was just memorizing that mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell and moving on with your life? Good times. Then suddenly you're expected to understand why ATP synthase works like a molecular turbine and derive equations for reaction kinetics. The transition from "fun fact: water boils at 100°C" to "calculate the change in entropy when accounting for atmospheric pressure variations and intermolecular forces" hits different. We all signed up for the trivia night version of science, not the existential crisis mathematical proof edition. That cute anime girl with hearts represents our innocent joy at learning cool facts, while the second panel captures our soul leaving our body when someone mentions partial differential equations.
