The childhood-to-engineer pipeline perfectly captured in thermodynamic reality. Most of us grew up imagining air conditioners as magical cold-producing machines (cue Mr. Freeze character), only to have our dreams crushed by the laws of physics in engineering school. Turns out ACs don't create cold—they just relocate heat like an overworked postal worker transferring packages from one facility to another. The Patrick Star revelation is basically first-year thermodynamics distilled to its essence: "Why don't we take the heat and push it somewhere else!" Which is, embarrassingly, exactly how air conditioning works. Conservation of energy strikes again, destroying childhood magic one HVAC system at a time.
