The eternal academic struggle captured perfectly! Walking past the abstract of a research paper like "not today, Satan" but then sprinting back when you realize you need the full paper... only to hit that dreaded paywall. Nothing triggers scientific rage quite like seeing groundbreaking research locked behind a $39.99 fee. The academic publishing industry has researchers creating the content, peer-reviewing it for free, and then charging those same researchers to read their colleagues' work. It's the scientific equivalent of baking a cake and then having to pay to eat a slice!
