Chemistry: where we create rules just to watch them burn. Nothing says "I'm a genius" like inventing a principle that works for exactly 1.5% of cases. The octet rule? More like the "sometimes-tet" rule. Organic chemistry is basically just a collection of exceptions masquerading as a science. Next time your professor says "this is the rule," just whisper "...for now" and watch them have an existential crisis.
