Behold the perfect illustration of research funding disparities! On the left, mathematicians pushing boundaries with $20 worth of building blocks. On the right, physicists casually smashing particles with their $9 billion Large Hadron Collider. The mathematician's like "I've constructed a revolutionary proof using these plastic toys" while physicists are like "Sorry, can't hear you over the sound of our superconducting magnets rearranging subatomic particles." Pure math: solving millennium problems with chalk and imagination. Experimental physics: "We need another billion to upgrade the antimatter containment field." The eternal academic flex battle continues!
