The duality of separatory funnel experiences! Top panel: The panic-stricken face when that precious organic layer starts dripping out before you've closed the stopcock completely. That microsecond of terror as you watch your 3-week synthesis potentially drain away. Bottom panel: Pure unbridled joy when both layers separate PERFECTLY and you nail that stopcock control like a separation virtuoso. The difference between "I'm switching majors tomorrow" and "I should probably teach masterclasses in liquid-liquid extraction" happens in about 0.5 seconds of stopcock rotation.
