The ultimate biochemical love triangle! Hemoglobin is literally designed to bind with oxygen, but carbon monoxide swoops in with 200x stronger binding affinity and steals hemoglobin's attention. Poor oxygen just standing there all betrayed while hemoglobin checks out carbon monoxide like "sorry babe, it's just chemistry." This is why carbon monoxide poisoning is so dangerous - your red blood cells are too busy simping for the wrong molecule to deliver oxygen to your tissues. Talk about toxic relationships!
