That moment when you're introduced to the Twin Prime Conjecture and suddenly your entire weekend is gone. For the uninitiated, it's that unsolved math problem suggesting there are infinitely many pairs of primes that differ by 2 (like 3 and 5, 11 and 13). Mathematicians have been staring intensely at it since 1849 with exactly the same facial expression. Currently at "we know there are infinitely many primes that differ by at most 246" - which is like saying you're "almost" at the moon when you've reached the second floor.
