The Chemistry Student's Curse

The tiny green slice labeled "It's hard" is basically a rounding error compared to the massive purple section "You'll never be able to enjoy movies again because you'll notice mistakes." Chemistry students don't fear the periodic table—they fear the moment Hollywood gets basic chemistry wrong and ruins their cinema experience forever! That water explosion scene? Sodium doesn't react THAT violently. That blue liquid in the beaker? Nobody labels chemicals with "SCIENCE JUICE." Once you know your electron configurations, you're cursed with the knowledge that 99% of movie lab scenes are pure fantasy. The hardest part of being a chemist isn't balancing equations—it's restraining yourself from shouting "THAT'S NOT HOW ACID WORKS!" in a crowded theater.
