Ranking Of Greek Letters By Fear Factor

Ranking Of Greek Letters By Fear Factor

Nothing strikes more terror into a physics student's heart than seeing ω (omega) appear in an equation. Suddenly your nice, predictable motion becomes a nightmare of angular velocities! And don't get me started on ε (epsilon) - that innocent-looking symbol that somehow always means "an arbitrarily small value that will absolutely destroy your calculations if you ignore it."

The ranking is spot-on! Whoever made this clearly had PTSD from quantum mechanics (ψ) and thermodynamics (Φ). Meanwhile, π just chills in the "Usually Fine" category because it's a constant that actually behaves itself.

The true comedy is the "Impossible to Judge" category - those are the letters you see in a textbook and think, "Wait, is that Greek or just a weird font?" Right before your professor says "this should be obvious" and your soul leaves your body.
